Happy Halloween! Flash back to my favorite costumes I have ever made. My kids were obsessed with the kids show Jake and the Neverland Pirates that year! My husband was Captain Hook with our little Jake and Cubby and I dressed up as Izzy. @madebymelli #happyhalloween #diyhalloweencostumes #halloweenflashback #whereswaldo
The day we brought the bench to school a 10 year old boy sat on it lovingly and then came up to me and said Thank you for making this for our school! His parents are doing something right! ❤ The first morning the buddy bench was outside at the school some extremely concerned 7 year old girls came over to a staff on duty to inform her that the paint was coming off. Worried she went to check on it. She was happy to educate some extremely relieved little girls all about dew drops. 😂 She laughed as she told me she even had to get some dew on her hands so they could see that the beads all over the bench were just water. I love that the kids are being so respectful of it. #buddybench #iliketolookforrainbows #bekind #begrateful #berespectful
I did not have time to grab my pro camera to snap a good photo of this, but it was so breathtaking. I rushed outside before I left for church to snap a photo on my phone! It was as if the sun was spotlighting the fall colors in my backyard and reminding me just how beautiful this world is. #forthebeautyoftheearth #fall #fallcolors #morningsunshine
I actually dressed up for our ward Halloween party yesterday. The spider tatoos and spiders on the netting of the hat added a fun touch. But seriously - not sure I want to put on spiders again for a long time! I hate them! #wickedwitch #spidertatoo #halloweencostume
Help! I got a whole bunch of volunteer Tomatillos this year. I didn't even plant a garden! What do you like to make with Tomatillos? All I've ever done is Salsa Verde. I'd love to try something else too. #tomatillos #harvest
This was my back yard for all of my youth in beautiful British Columbia. I loved that view of the mountians from the deck. It was even better before the high-school was built. My sister bought the house from my Dad shortly after my Mom passed away. She just listed the home and had 3 offers the next day! I realized that I'm feeling sad about it. I've missed that feeling of going home to visit for a long time. I wish I could just go curl up on Mom's bed and have one last conversation with her. But I'm also sad the kids don't get to go play one last time in that yard. I have so many good memories there. #nostalgia #grief #childhoodmemories #thatviewthough
