Thanks for joining in on our weekly link party: Much Ado About Monday. I hope y'all had a great weekend! We were super busy, but had lots of fun! On Thursday and Friday, we had school performances and parties, on Saturday, we had girls spa day, and this morning, we took my Star Wars obsessed son to see The Force Awakens. Now just to keep the kids busy until Christmas!<br />
<br />
And as for the party... last week I got caught up with all things Christmas and missed posting MAAM. We really appreciate those of you guys who are back with us this week! And since I missed last week, we'll pick features from the previous Much Ado About Monday link party. And I'm super excited about them!!!<br />

<br />
We're back and ready to get going for the holiday season. I can't wait to share the mermaid tail blankets I made for my girls this week and Lydia and Jamie have some fun posts coming up as well. Make sure to check back with us over the next few weeks!<br />

This weekend, we had so much fun at our neighborhood's annual frosty festival, though little miss E was a little bit afraid of Santa. Ella even won a little dance contest! The kiddos absolutely loved it and we feel lucky to have such great neighbors and friends to get into the Christmas spirit with.<br />
<br />
And now onto the party...<br />
<br />
Thanks for joining us this week for our Much Ado About Monday link party! We apologize for not posting a link party last week. Due to technical difficulties (i.e. a failed hard drive) we weren't able to host. We're glad to be back and are super excited about our features!<br />

This weekend was a whirlwind of activity as we celebrated my two oldest girls birthdays with a Cheerleading themed party. It was a blast! We got the whole house decorated in red and white, ate a ton of delicious food and then surprised the girls with two of our local high schools cheerleaders. The girls came and taught all of the kids a few cheers, chants, jumps and then helped them put on a performance for all the parents who were there. I didn't tell my girls that the cheerleaders were coming and they were over the moon excited. My 4 year old almost cried because she was so overwhelmed when they showed up. :) So, so much fun!!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
This weekend was a fun one. We spent most of the day today with my oldests Girl Scout troop taking a grocery store tour and learning about money to earn their Finance leaves. The grocery store we went to was incredibly accomodating taking us on a full tour of the store including the back room and freezer area. They even let the girls practice their cashier skills on one of the real tills. After the tour, the girls earned their Community helpers badge by shopping for and buying food to give a couple families in need a Thanksgiving dinner. Overall a really fun day for the girls!</div>

This week absolutely flew by and we are enjoying the cooler weather. Unfortunately, this weekend marked the end of our Summer camping and boating adventures, but spending some time at home cuddling up with my family on the weekends will be so nice. And now, we will be all rested and reenergized for when the weather warms up again and we move our camper back to it's Summer home.</div>

I am not going to lie to you here: making a diaper bag with this many components intimidated me a bit (THREE zippers, adjustable messenger strap, magnetic snap pocket, side pockets, interior zippered divider pocket, interior elastic pockets...I told you this bag had a ton of elements!) and I have been sewing since I was 9. But I had always sewn clothes and never dreamed that I would love sewing a bag as much as I did.<br />

I seriously loved putting this bag together. It was so much fun and the pattern went together like a dream. I felt like I was putting together a really awesome, 3-D jigsaw puzzle that gave me an amazing diaper bag at the end.<br />
<br />

<br />
Having never sewn a bag before, I learned a lot of new skills putting together my Airdrie bag. One of them was installing a magnetic snap for the front pocket. It was so simple to do and I feel like such a pro whenever I use it. My husband was super impressed with it as well (shhh...don't tell him how easy it was).<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
And I love this front pocket. I keep my lip gloss, hand sanitizer, and pocket first aid kit up there and I still have plenty of room.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
I had also never sewn a welted zipper, which is located on the back of the bag. Abby's instructions and clear pictures made this step a cinch and I was amazed at how quickly it came together and how polished it looks. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

I like to keep my tissues, coupons, and mints in the back pocket. (And can I mention how much I adore this pop of pink from the interior fabric whenever I use this pocket? So much fun!)<br />
<br />
The exterior also has two side gusset pockets, which are so nice to have and are much bigger than I initially thought. So big, in fact, that I can fit my kids' Thermos Funtainer sippy cups in them with no problem. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
The other pocket I use for my keys and phone, since I reach for those two items the most when I'm out and about. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8yNhff_L7cB-AybD9MtMqke7N05d-Ua0gkZoW0HQQeJJPNcTF_TiJJQOSPZHJvsTKoGBpEl64D-yJYU-BMhrWY9tqEvLDtOxUKOvneVc6hg1xqLzVwTXdRf5U4g8eBqFgUpbjZcSWPwNI/s1600/IMG_9988+%25282%2529.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8yNhff_L7cB-AybD9MtMqke7N05d-Ua0gkZoW0HQQeJJPNcTF_TiJJQOSPZHJvsTKoGBpEl64D-yJYU-BMhrWY9tqEvLDtOxUKOvneVc6hg1xqLzVwTXdRf5U4g8eBqFgUpbjZcSWPwNI/s640/IMG_9988+%25282%2529.JPG" width="426" /></a> </div>
<br />
And can we talk about the interior of this bag?! Two elastic pockets on the back side of the bag (where I keep my diapers and wipes) and a divided zipper pocket (which fits my iPad mini), which nicely separates my side of the bag from the kids' side of the bag. I love having this divider so I know my wallet and lotion are always at the front, and the snacks and colors for the kiddos are always at the back. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Here is my bag, all packed and ready to go. And I honestly could stuff more in there (which I normally do), but it looks so nice and organized for the picture. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

Here I pulled everything out of the bag, so you could see how much was in there, hidden in the pockets. A full size coloring book, crayon roll, iPad mini, make-up bag, wallet, stack of diapers, wipes, Boogie wipes (these things are so awesome, y'all), diaper pad, snacks...the list goes on and on. I have yet to run out of room, yet everything stays fairly organized, thanks to the pockets and the divider. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

Once everything is tucked away, the bag closes with a recessed zipper, which is one of my favorite things about the bag. I have had several diaper bags that only close with a magnetic snap and I was not a fan of that at all. I love that once I zipper the bag shut, it looks so polished and I don't have to worry about things getting out of (or into!) the bag. Such an awesome feature. <br />
<br />

The bag also features an adjustable messenger strap, so I can tighten it up or loosen it, depending on how I'm wearing it that day. So nice to have that option!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
I had also never really worked with home decor fabric (which is recommended for the exterior of the bag) but it was such a nice change from working with stretchy knits or wrinkly cotton fabrics.<br />
<br />
I signed up to test this pattern a little unsure of what I was getting myself into since I had never sewn a bag before, much less one with so many amazing features, but came away loving the process (beside the cutting out, but who ever really likes that part?!) and ready to make another one.<br />

I have been using my bag since it's completion (about three weeks now) and it is holding up beautifully. The interfacing and fleece that give the bag it's shape are the perfect combination of sturdy, yet flexible and comfortable.<br />
<br />
I have said it so many times in this post, but the Airdrie bag is simply the best and I just love, love, love it!! Don't let the fact that you have never made a bag before stop you from making this one. Abby's pattern and instructions are so clear and professional and you will be amazed at how quickly you will be strolling the town, showing off your one-of-a-kind diaper bag. The pattern is available on <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/254933890/airdrie-bag-pdf-pattern?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=airdrie&ref=sr_gallery_3" target="_blank">Etsy</a> so be sure to get your copy!<br />

I can't believe it is November already and Halloween is over. Soon it will be Thanksgiving and then the countdown to Christmas will begin, and I cannot wait!! Last week was insanely busy as we prepared for the spook-tacular day, but the business was worth it because this weekend was a blast!<br />

<br />
We started the Halloween weekend off with our annual trip to Zoo Boo at the Houston Zoo. It is always a ton of fun for the kids to play festive games, decorate a pumpkin and of course see all of their favourite animals. We have gone every year since Jaydn was a baby and now five years later and can't imagine us not continuing the tradition.<br />

<br />
After a fun day at Zoo Boo, we headed over to Lydia's house for a fun Halloween dress-up party, the kids had a blast dressing up, eating all of the Halloween themed treats and getting to play some fun games, including a ghostly pinata.<br />
<br />
Saturday was, of course, Halloween, so we woke up early and got to work on carving our pumpkins.<br />
<br />

This year my kids dressed up as traditional Halloween characters; a witch, pumpkin, black cat and Frankenstein, so our pumpkins were carved to match their costumes.<br />

I can't believe Halloween is this weekend!!! We had a wonderful weekend just relaxing, getting together with friends, and pumpkin carving with the kiddos while it rained. Oh and there were plenty of hours spent on a costume for a certain little boy. Thor has proven to be a bit difficult! And since we have a costume party to go to, my hubby and I are dressing up. Fingers crossed that I can get everything done in time...<br />

This week has also been Halloween focused with me sharing a delicious <a href="http://www.huckleberrylove.com/2015/10/roasted-pumpkin-seeds-recipe_23.html">recipe for roasted pumpkin seeds</a>. We made them with the seeds from our jack-o-lanterns this weekend, and they're completely gone... devoured in one day!<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This week, I wanted to share with you this amazing recipe for roasted pumpkin seeds.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm not going to lie, these may not be the healthiest pumpkin seeds in the world, but they only come around once a year in our household, so they're a special treat. What's my secret? Butter. And really not that much, but it definitely makes these pumpkin seeds. So if you dare, try out this savory fall treat... you know you want to!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What you'll need:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1 cup of pumpkin seeds</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2 tbsp melted butter</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">fine grain salt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Part 1: Separating the seeds from the pulp</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We like to get everyone involved in pumpkin carving around here. And when your 2 and 3 year olds are tasked with seed sorting, they tend to leave a little pulp stuck to the seeds. I guess I can't complain about free labor ;-) A great way to separate your seeds is to soak them in water. Just soak the seeds in warm water for a few minutes and rinse a couple times. Drain, place onto paper towels, and pat dry. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Part 2: Seasoning </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Place your pumpkin seeds into a bowl, and for every one cup of seeds, add two tablespoons of melted butter. We had three cups, but I only used four tablespoons and it was enough. I've tried the method where you sautee them in butter, but it really doesn't make a difference and dirties an extra pan. Add fine grain salt, to taste. Personally, I always add a little extra salt because it all isn't going to stick, right? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Part 3: Roasting</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Line a jellyroll pan or baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seeds into a thin layer. In a 300 degree oven, roast your pumpkin seeds for about 40 minutes, stirring about 2 times. Wait until the edges are turning a nice golden brown. Once they're finished baking, toss them into a bowl lined with paper towels. </span><br />

This past week was pretty special as my oldest baby girl celebrated her 6th birthday. I'm still trying to figure out how she went from the sweetest little squish to this beautiful and kind little girl so quickly. Watching her change and grow is so overwhelmingly wonderful, but seriously, can time just slow down a little... just a bit, please?<br />

Because we are Canadian and the Toronto Blue Jays made it to the playoffs, we decided that a fun way to celebrate her birthday would be to drive up to Dallas and watch the Jays take on the Texas Rangers. It was a ton of fun and I'm really glad we made the trip. :)<br />

This week has also been Halloween focused with me sharing a super cute free pattern for a <a href="http://www.huckleberrylove.com/2015/10/crochet-ghost-knot-hat-free-pattern.html">Crochet Ghost Knot Hat</a>. It whips up pretty quickly so you'll have plenty of time before Halloween to get one done. :)<br />

Halloween is just around the corner and if you haven't yet started on your kiddos Halloween costume, now is definitely the time! If you're looking for something fairly simple, and simply adorable then this little crochet ghost knot hat that I created is the perfect costume for your little one. Just pair this hat with a white onesie (or pants and l/s shirt, in the cooler areas) and you've got yourself a 'spook'tacular little ghost.<br />
<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">At this point you can tie it into a knot or wait until the hat is a little further along. I chose to tie my knot once I was a few rounds down to keep the piece out of my way.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Smile:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">With black yarn CH 10</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now that your eyes and smile are finished all you need to do is sew them onto your hat. I wanted my eyes to look more ghostly so I turned one of the eyes upside down so that they were not exactly the same on each side. Ghosts are a little mischievious so I decided to give mine a little side smirk, but feel free to place your ghosts mouth wherever you'd like. :)</span><br />

Thanks so much for stopping by our weekly link party! We had such a great fall weekend, even if the weather in Texas didn't reflect it! Our neighborhood had a fall festival complete with pumpkin decorating, hay rides, and face-painting. It was super fun relaxing and now I've just got to play catch up with Halloween costumes. </div>

Now that we are well into October, we can't seem to get Halloween off of our minds. It is such a fun time of year with so much decorating and crafting potential. We love seeing all of the costumes and the fantastic and fun ideas that pop up in preparation for the big day. Every year, we, along with our families and some other friends, get together and have a big Halloween party, so we are always on the lookout for creative and different ideas.<br />
<br />
A good party is made of a few major parts so we broke down our favorite Halloween party ideas into three must-have categories; Food, Decor and Games. We hope you get some inspiration from this compilation and that your party is a smashing success!<br />

Happy fall y'all! I hope you enjoy this super delicious recipe for peach jam. My kids absolutely love it and we've already made a big dent in our first jar. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This whole peach jam idea came up while I was at our local market and found peaches for 48 cents/pound. Insanely cheap right? I absolutely love finding deals on good produce as my kids are like little fruit monsters, raiding the fridge for any type of fruit they can find. I know-- not a terrible problem to have! So I called my mom to see if she wanted any and she said, "Let's make jam!" We met back at her house and spent the afternoon making this delicious jam and canning. It turned out so great, I just had to share! Since we made 10 jars and that's a bit crazy town, I halved this recipe to produce between 4 & 5. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For this recipe you'll need:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">8 large peaches</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">7 c sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1/4 c lemon juice</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6 oz pectin </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4-5 Canning jars, collars, lids, & misc canning supplies</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">First, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add the peaches. Return to boiling and let cook for 30-45 seconds. Remove the peaches and place into a bowl of ice water. This will loosen the skins so preparing the peaches will be a little easier. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Peel and pit the peaches. Chop into appx 1/2" pieces. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In another large pot, add sugar and lemon juice and peaches. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently. Bring to a rolling boil. To reduce foaming, you can add 1 tbsp of butter. I forgot this step and ended up with a sticky mess! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Boil for a few minutes, making sure the peaches are nice and soft. You can either mash or blend the fruit at this stage. I took a few swipes at it with my immersion blender. Add in the pectin and stir. Boil for about 1 min. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Pour into clean jars and wipe. Place boiled lids and collars on and tighten for canning. Make sure to leave an inch of headspace. You can follow the ball waterbath canning directions <a href="http://www.freshpreserving.com/tools/waterbath-canning">here.</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Don't forget to leave them out to cool for 24 hours. We chose to can all but one jar for each of us so we could have some right away. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">We hope you guys had a fabulous week! Over the weekend, we celebrated our two September birthday girls with a joint fairy birthday party. I transformed the house into an enchanted forest and the guests were all running around with fairy wings on, even some of the boys! {Side note: as a result, my house is now coated with a very fine layer of glitter. I like to think of it as fairy dust. Fairy dust I must get rid of immediately.} We combined the girls' gift and got them a little playhouse for the backyard. My hubby built a little platform for it and we laid down peel-and-stick tile on the inside {easy to clean, no splinters} and extended it towards the front to create a little porch. The girls love their "fairy house" and have spent hours in it with our new little puppy, Louie. Such a great weekend!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">Earlier this week, I shared the details from the hot air balloon baby shower I hosted for my sister at the beginning of the year {yep, just now getting around to blogging about it}. Such fun details, like really big balloons and a gorgeous color palette of pink, gold, and mint, made this one of my favorite parties to date. </span></span></span></div>

When my littlest sister found out she was expecting her first baby, my other sister and I immediately started planning her shower. As in, we created a secret Pinterest board, began texting ideas, and discussing the best weekend to have the party before the announcement phone call was even over. We have all thrown each others bridal and baby showers and we love being able to go a bit overboard to celebrate the big moments in our sisters' lives. </div>

For our baby sister, we settled on a hot air balloon/vintage travel theme for the shower, as she was decorating with that theme in her nursery. We found these gorgeous invites on <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/194663729/antique-hot-air-balloon-invitation?ref=shop_home_active_1&ga_search_query=hot%2Bair" target="_blank">Etsy</a> and used the beautiful vintage colors as a jumping off point for the rest of the shower planning. </div>

On the day of the shower, this cute wreath greeted our guests as they arrived {bonus: we gifted this to my sister when the shower was over and she still has it on her front door}. It was a very simple, last minute project with materials that I happened to have on hand, but it turned out great.</div>

Once inside, we had a little welcome table set up with my favorite part of the whole shower: an actual hot air balloon! It was such a fun surprise and our guest of honor was so excited about this decor. <br />

The diaper cake was also on the welcome table and I think it turned out so beautiful. We used pre-ruffled pink ribbon and thin gold glitter ribbon that we picked up from our local hobby store. I love the mix of pink and gold. And thank goodness for my Silhouette, which I used to cut out the adorable balloon topper.<br />

We made a two-tiered strawberry cake {my sisters's favorite flavor} and iced it with a pale sky blue icing. Using the Silhouette, we cut small cloud shapes out of white sugar
sheets purchased from our local hobby store and stuck them onto the
blue icing. <br />

<br />
We also strung up a garland of the paper hot air balloons from the mantel, behind the mama-to-be as she opened gifts and played our shower game of His or Hers. The game was a lot of fun. We had a list of baby's attributes {like eye color, humor, intelligence} and had the guests guess if the mom-to-be wanted baby to get mom's or dad's genes for that characteristic. After writing down their guesses, we went around the room and had the guests hold up either a mustache or red lips to indicate what they thought my sister would want for that particular trait. Points were earned for correct guesses and the winner received a cute mug with a coffee shop gift card. <br />

<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">This week, our family welcomed a new addition. A sweet, little male French Bulldog puppy!! I had been wanting a new puppy for the past few months, but my husband decided to surprise me this weekend by bringing this little guy home. I am totally smitten with our adorable new puppy and the kids cannot stop fawning over him. We still haven't settled on a name for him yet {Louis, Remy, Tate, Booker..?!?} but already love him to pieces. </span></span></span></span></div>

I know I also asked the nurses and Dwayne several times if 'they were sure'... They even made a point to show me 'the goods' so to speak to reassure me that they hadn't just been mistaken.

<span style="color: #e06666; font-size: x-large;">We missed you guys!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"> <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">So, we have taken a bit of a break lately, if you haven't noticed. With summer schedules, vacations, and new additions to look after, we let our little blog slip to the background while we focused on being moms and wives. It was a much needed break. But as cliche as it sounds, absence makes the heart grow fonder and we started missing our creative outlet, our internet family, and you guys! </span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Now that school is back in session, we are so excited to start dedicating our time back to Huckleberry Love. Not to worry...even though we stepped away for a bit from blogging, we have still been crafting, DIYing, and creating like crazy. And we can't wait to share all the projects we have been working on! From baby shower ideas to pattern testing some amazing new patterns, delicious new recipes to fabulous furniture makeovers, we have so many great ideas and fantastic posts coming your way! </span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Although much will be the same going forward, we are also making some changes. Emily has decided to step away from the blog {be sure to read her bittersweet good-bye post <a href="http://www.huckleberrylove.com/2015/09/so-long-farewell.html" target="_blank">here</a>}. Her passion for blogging and creating was infectious and we are going to miss her so much!</span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">With that being said, we will now be picking three features each week, in addition to the most popular link of the week, and will be updating pictures and other fun, little areas of the blog to give our space a little tweak and update. We hope you guys are as excited as we are about all the changes coming our way and we can't wait to start back up and move forward! </span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: x-large;">Hi y'all!</span></div>
<br />
You may not realize it, but it's been A LONG time since you've heard from me. I've taken some time off to re-evaluate things, get moved into our new home and adjust to life thousands of miles away from my Huckleberry friends. Life has been busy. <br />

Anyway, the girls have been great and have kept the blog going strong without me along for the ride. I have missed writing about all of the great projects going on in our new house. It's hard to believe we've been here for a year all ready! Lots of wallpaper gone, walls painted, rooms decorated, DIY projects completed and no blogging to be had. It's been tough, but necessary. <br />

Sadly, after a lot of thought, I've decided to step away from Huckleberry Love for good. I have taken the plunge and have re-enrolled in college. Yikes! I'm only 12 classes away from a B.A. in History and after I've tackled that degree, I'm moving on to my Master's. It certainly won't be easy to juggle school, while raising three young kids and keeping up with day to day life... But, I'm excited to finish up a degree that I started 15 years ago. This Mama is ready! <br />

These girls and this blog have meant so much to me. To be able to share your passion with three of your closest friends has been wonderful. We've had such a blast doing Huckleberry Love together and I'm sad to let that go. But, we'll have the memories.... lots of great memories! Our late night crafting and wine sessions, the Haven conference, Lydia and Jill teaching Jamie and I to sew... the list goes on! I don't want to say I'll be away <em>FOREVER</em>. If I have something good up my sleeve that I just <em>HAVE</em> to share, I'm sure I could convince these lovely Huckleberry ladies to let me guest post. :)<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"> <span style="color: black;">I hope you are all able to enjoy this wonderful weekend! We have a three day weekend, as both my husband and my daughter have Monday off. We ended up not having any big plans for the extended weekend, which was actually perfect. We did some much needed yard-work, played in an hour-long rain shower (free splashpad!), worked on cleaning and organizing the house, and I started making over a desk for my craft room (more on that later). Then we had a game night at our house and stayed up way too late with some great friends. </span></span></span></div>

<br />
First off, I just want to say that we are so sorry for missing the party last week! With three of us blogging, sometimes our schedules get mixed up. I think we're all ready for school to start so we can get a handle on things :-)<br />
<br />
This week, my daughter turned 6! Can you believe it!?! I made her a little photo collage from each of her birthdays, and I had to pull out the tissues by the end. I must say, she's grown to be quite the little lady!<br />

We spent her birthday with her neighbor friend. We made gak, bookmarks, and then she got to have a sleepover with another special friend. Her aunt even took her for a pedicure!<br />
<br />

How was your weekend? Mine was amazing! We celebrated my girls' birthdays with a pony party. It was so much fun!<br />

We are so fortunate to have wonderful friends to celebrate with us! The girls and their friends had such a great party, and it was so worth everything I put into it. I wish I would have gotten more pictures to capture every detail, but it was really nice to put the camera down and enjoy it myself :-)<br />
<br />
And now onto our weekly party!<br />
<br />
A big thanks to everyone who joined in and linked up with us last week! What fun projects and yummy recipes! You guys make it so hard to pick favorites, but here they are...<br />
