Welcome October!

The air is getting Crisper, the leaves are turning, and I am getting ready to host our Families Turkey dinner! I am Canadian, so we have our Thanksgiving Holiday in October. I am hosting Turkey day at my house this year. I am both excited and afraid!

You might think this odd from someone who Plans parties/events as her career, but let me clarify something; it's not the planning or hosting that I am afraid of! It is the state of my house! Since the spring, my house has seemed to be in a whirl wind! We have all just blasted through and no one has really paid any attention to our home. It seems really angry with us now! Since becoming busier, I have really found it difficult to find that balance that all of us women seem to desperately strive for. And so my mission this week is to apologise to our family home! I know this sounds crazy! But if you saw my house, you would understand how and why I would say it is angry with us!

 

Bits and Bites (or things that will keep me busy this fall);
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I am planning my own little Shin-Dig to honour some special women in my life; more details to follow.
Birthday's are always FUN! We will be celebrating a family birthday on the 19th, and there are some Birthday Boxes on order for the month of October that I am working on too! Watch for some Angry Bird and Beyblade inspiration.
My husband and I are excited to attend the wedding of a good friend. And to celebrate the engagement of a Good friend's daughter (YIKES am I that old!).
I am very excited to be part of a special giveaway with Connie's Magical Cupboard, a local baker, check it out over on Facebook here.
I am always excited to work with Jen over at Simply Cakes and Sweets, she and I worked so well together in the past and we have much more up our sleeves for the fall!
