Happy October!

Happy middle of October!  I know I say this all the time, but man, seems like time goes by faster each day. 

This weekend my parents came for a short visit.  Friday night was low-key with dinner out at Lost Pizza.  This is slowly becoming my favorite new pizza place.  We watched the Tupelo vs. South Panola game on TV (how crazy is that to see a high school game on national channels); poor Tupelo got slaughtered.  Saturday I planned to take Mom to see the quilt show which was set up at Oren Museum.  I have never been to Oren so I was not sure what to expect.  The quilt show was more of a small display the museum had, but still nice.  We toured the rest of the museum while we were there.  I was pleasantly surprised at everything there.  I got several great pictures of the grounds outside.

Here are the rest of the photos.

After the museum, we headed over to Heirlooms Forever.  I knew she would like this store, but she LOVED it. She picked up a couple of patterns for the girls.  This store always makes me wish I knew how to sew more and quilted.  I need to get back to my quilts I’m slowing making, but then again what do I not need to be working on! :)  I picked up the fabric for two Christmas presents.  If everything goes according to plan, I hope to cut them out this weekend and work on them.

Saturday afternoon, Brian and I went down to Aberdeen for a blues festival.  The festival was blah in my opinion, but I did have fun taking pictures at Blue Bluff.  I don’t know why Brian hasn’t taken me here before!  I really want to go back and get some more pictures.  I also LOVE pictures taken with Hipstamatic app.  If you have an iphone and do not have this app yet, go and download it NOW.  Here are a few of my favorite pictures from Blue Bluff.

I like the pictures you took at the bluff! looks very serene. I'm getting the itch to learn to sew myself. Think it would be fun and help me save some money on home decor!
