We dressed Lillie up as Pocahontas and took her over to Coach and Mrs. Shaver's neighborhood to go trick-or-treating. It took her a little while to warm up to the idea but once we got going she seemed to like adding all the candy to her little bucket! Here she is right before we plopped her in the car to head over to the Shaver's.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwiMJtBZ7gqKSEfCP9PcZ8f66Bd2Y2WKE0Rba8kBLFAl3W-C6B2Nl9PnO28A1dSpiBWp0dxwvYOgAsYqQH32eaLpUBBXDnw08LQa0scO9d_M9ryNdy4gy9tqUD4uRzfURgzyLAcAvFHhQ/s1600/DSC_0026-(2)c-copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

The Winner of the Thermal Is... (and Some Pictures of the Miss Lillabel)

It has been a busy week here! My brother Jason was here last weekend and my sister Jamie and her husband Josh are here now visiting us. Jon's Aunt Nancy and Uncle Rex were also visiting Williamsburg this past week with their friends Debbie and Lloyd and we got to see them several times. Lillie had soooo much fun with "Unka" and it was so nice getting to see the Bennetts! I was awful with my camera again and didn't get any pictures of Jason's visit or Nancy and Rex =(. I did finally pull my camera out this afternoon, though, and got some pictures of Lillie playing out on the green in front of the Governor's Palace in Colonial Williamsburg.<br /><br /><div align="center"><strong>Here's Miss Lillabel wearing our Hadley Hat that is now available with a flower clip and our Thermal Fairyland Silhouette Shirt</strong> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4Nxny2EjxxRRfY-Zfs3SOgIEIzbnEIPPhOVEE0vb91G5TFJkVKEKSJxufmYTQCqnhNT1lDF2BOckJGPfscnEi2U3HTeEIxz_qrqPdb43fXa0jRxcM6w1uYbfBB3s1u3eFXBiCX0kijk4/s1600/DSC_0020-(3)csweet-copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4Nxny2EjxxRRfY-Zfs3SOgIEIzbnEIPPhOVEE0vb91G5TFJkVKEKSJxufmYTQCqnhNT1lDF2BOckJGPfscnEi2U3HTeEIxz_qrqPdb43fXa0jRxcM6w1uYbfBB3s1u3eFXBiCX0kijk4/s640/DSC_0020-(3)csweet-copy.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg85tFLaMs0cjw3E6PgsivV2ZS9FXR0WXzZXoSSRwv6fWaJmAJsljUBb9m-Rfo-xXj5o44V_GyELP9K_0M5qYJKnOuzwkYAbOgIIpvnMOBtYhlFu6POsJImZHHW4dcRuSjUCTqC42hzwDI/s1600/DSC_0038-(2)c-copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg85tFLaMs0cjw3E6PgsivV2ZS9FXR0WXzZXoSSRwv6fWaJmAJsljUBb9m-Rfo-xXj5o44V_GyELP9K_0M5qYJKnOuzwkYAbOgIIpvnMOBtYhlFu6POsJImZHHW4dcRuSjUCTqC42hzwDI/s640/DSC_0038-(2)c-copy.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><br /><div align="center"><strong>Playing Football</strong></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBWdi9xPkuVBL55nYQ48TFyARbgMFoaSYD27M3My3t4lcWBh7AbXgvwafs4oroxRt_TFtIrDvLeYqy5nkUBXhW5F1RmP39-AR5U3_ib9yzayO4PKp1jsEYebajh4i4PaL3L2BO6MbfMpM/s1600/DSC_0048-copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBWdi9xPkuVBL55nYQ48TFyARbgMFoaSYD27M3My3t4lcWBh7AbXgvwafs4oroxRt_TFtIrDvLeYqy5nkUBXhW5F1RmP39-AR5U3_ib9yzayO4PKp1jsEYebajh4i4PaL3L2BO6MbfMpM/s640/DSC_0048-copy.jpg" width="410" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOcu-r3ZVRayyGQA9KQJbWrdAKMixs6_vs8hU6TKy0O4nPYfUWAmlYgOdNaA8hkp191PwATS9ol1aeOof_XW43s3L5csupIM0CXRtFCcSoO23gBQGnJZQyM8ME1ARCSsdO96ERu_8gwYI/s1600/DSC_0049-copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOcu-r3ZVRayyGQA9KQJbWrdAKMixs6_vs8hU6TKy0O4nPYfUWAmlYgOdNaA8hkp191PwATS9ol1aeOof_XW43s3L5csupIM0CXRtFCcSoO23gBQGnJZQyM8ME1ARCSsdO96ERu_8gwYI/s640/DSC_0049-copy.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUQQjDEgx0QAWWRpLvV41UmwPR9cerrnr0f32HC7N19Ooza5hN08zMmmNoK8cYQA34uJfSi7IWKEKQSOx7Kz26G83zcqYlHwjUw7C1PDxWUHEJukEndKPZQlfiEdEskxuOKUpIHBrkX-E/s1600/DSC_0077-(3)c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUQQjDEgx0QAWWRpLvV41UmwPR9cerrnr0f32HC7N19Ooza5hN08zMmmNoK8cYQA34uJfSi7IWKEKQSOx7Kz26G83zcqYlHwjUw7C1PDxWUHEJukEndKPZQlfiEdEskxuOKUpIHBrkX-E/s640/DSC_0077-(3)c.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><br /><div align="center"><strong>What an arm!

The Winner of the Thermal Is... (and Some Pictures of the Miss Lillabel)

It has been a busy week here! My brother Jason was here last weekend and my sister Jamie and her husband Josh are here now visiting us. Jon...

Jamie and Josh's House

My sister Jamie, and her husband Josh, started building a home about two years ago. Now, when I say building a home, I don't mean having someone build a home for them, I mean they literally built it themselves with their bare hands (with help from friends and family - especially Josh's parents). They hammered in every nail and laid down every floorboard and put up all the insulation...you get the picture. I don't think Jamie had any idea what they were getting into when they started - haha!<br /><br />Last December they were able to move in but still had a lot of work to do. Slowly it has been coming together and last week when Lillie and I took a trip up to NH we were excited to see it really was starting to look like a home! I know they are so happy. It has really come together beautifully and they have done an absolutely fabulous job! They still have a lot more decorating to do and as they continue I will post more pictures whenever I travel up to NH (we are going to have Lillie birthday party there in December). For now though, here are a few spaces that are nearing completion:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Here is their dining room. Pretty much everything you see here was either an antique or thrift store find! The wall color is one of my favorites - Alexandria Beige by Benjamin Moore. We used it in our last home and I planning on painting our nursery for our new wee one this color.</strong></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihgj07Y0ltGqHUnzk_IQgmjLuuLgBlO41Msj1-BCPC2SIv20seeziEX09_lyMLUzzC5AnNIS_0ttB5SjLb5MXJ9dzgEmYk7axtMDUfiptKWh0FICQPzuSB5sFnxaflXBnpecJ67M2SxEQ/s1600/DSC_0068.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihgj07Y0ltGqHUnzk_IQgmjLuuLgBlO41Msj1-BCPC2SIv20seeziEX09_lyMLUzzC5AnNIS_0ttB5SjLb5MXJ9dzgEmYk7axtMDUfiptKWh0FICQPzuSB5sFnxaflXBnpecJ67M2SxEQ/s640/DSC_0068.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Here is an old toolbox Jamie found at an antique shop and it is sitting on a burlap runner she made.
