Football & Scarecrows

People.

M’peeps.

I have a sugared cinnamon apple candle burning right now, and if that doesn’t smell like Fall, I don’t know what does. ;)

Other quintessentially Fall things??

Scarecrows.

And football.

And we enjoyed both today. :)

Obligatory kiddo-in-football-gear-clothing pic:



Poor Little Man. His jersey doesn’t fit anymore, ha. Needs a new one.

Hard to believe the one in this pic was still hanging in his closet until last week:



Love my crazy babies, and it’s so fun to track our yearly football-geared pictures, from infancy. I even have an old client from my advertising days who loves to see these each year. All part of our football tradition. Really, really feels like September, now.

And it certainly makes the hubby happy to be raising some tiny enthusiasts. Even if they only have a small idea who they’re cheering for, and why. ;)

In other fun, lazy Saturday news: we busted out a lovely little scarecrow project that had us full-on occupied for an hour. Golden.

















I think they turned out so, dang cute. And there are plenty more scarecrows in the kit, so we’ll tuck them away for next year and they’ll feel like new again. Win/win.



This crafting time was all thanks to the half hour I was able to spend this morning, organizing the craft closet (that’s quite crammed, but at least I know where everything is—and everything that’s in there, for that matter).



Luckily, we are pretty stocked with oodles of Fall projects that we’re definitely gonna need. Because we are absolutely on a kick, of late.

I need to remind myself of the somewhat cyclical nature of our crafting, whenever I feel like we haven’t been able to devote as much time to this favorite pastime as I’d like.

There’s a season for everything, and Fall apparently brings out the creativity in us. And it doesn’t hurt that I’ve been able to pick up little projects everywhere, lately. 

Here are some little bats we assembled on Wednesday...



And I forgot to post this shrink art project a week or two ago. It was our official Fall craft kick-off!





Grateful for so many fun diversions to keep my babies entertained.

And I still haven’t posted our school projects from Thursday, so...something to strive for, mañana.

Happy Saturday, peeps.

Stay healthy, stay sane.

Over and out.
