Happy Friday :) On a non-Christmas note, I get to be in a wedding soon..well in a year and a half, but we've been busy planning pinning pretty things for it :)  The bride to be is Aminah from Thrifty Gypsies (you may remember her from here  & here).

Here are some of the pretty pins inspiring her rustic/country wedding :)

Christmas times a comin'

Anyone else think December is going by way to fast? I am not as far ahead as I would like to be! I have been busy knittign up a storm - and would love to share it, but the recipient actually reads my blog sometimes so I'll have to wait until after Christmas!

How are your to-do lists going? Are you having to narrow down overly ambitious lists, to more realistic and manageable ones?

Re-Style > Advent Calendar

Clifford has always wanted an advent calendar he could fill with trinkets and chocolate, but never had the time to make one. While garage sailing we found a not so pretty one, but figured for $3 we could paint it and make it pretty :)

Soft Peanut Butter Cookies

Maya loves to help bake and cook, so I took a little break from my crazy work week (a downside to working from home, is you can't leave it at the office!) 

We made these super easy and delicious cookies I found on pinterest , and they turned out great :)

Oh Christmas Tree

I mentioned earlier that I caved and put the tree up a week early. For the first few days Lily was constantly re-arranging the ornaments - which cause a lot of breakage, but now she seems over it and the rest of the ornaments can give a sigh of relief :)

This year we got a new tree (I have to have artificial due my allergies) , that is quite a bit bigger than our old one, so I think we may to get a few more things to fill it out. 

Happy TGIF!
