Rusty Gold







Going from Shorts yesterday to Jackets and Hats today brrrr rabbit
Sipping on some hot tea, housecleaning we have guests coming this week

Popping in today to share some photos of our vintage bike
I love the design of this bike, Can you image it in it's glory days
It kind of reminds me of Good Ole Pee Wee Herman
We are not sure what we want to do to it a full restore or partial 
This is more my brothers specialty but we thought it was cool and couldn't pass it up

The Quest For The Perfect Pumpkin










Love this, His expression kills me 


Our visit to the HUMC Pumpkin Patch was successful
once again, The patch originally lured us in with its curvy Live Oaks and Mystic Moss, and still captivates us with it beauty.
This is where we made friends with another Dalton, and his family
they invited us to come check out the church and we've attended ever since

This visit we settled on one big pumpkin and 4 tiny, and one lil spook for a school project. We ended up deciding to paint our pumpkins,
 can't wait to show you how they turned out

Capturing Memories




I love taking photos no doubt about that but
I have found having two kids it's been much more difficult to tote along my big DSLR camera., My Iphone has become my crutch 
maybe because it's always near by, it's convenient but hey it works great
and it's a simple snap and throw it back in your purse or pocket and go

example this shot, this was taken a couple summers ago during our OBX
vacation, my brother had brought along some of his cool bikes to ride around near our beach house and this one with the basket on the back was a big hit all the kids wanted to ride on the back
my girl fell asleep on the ride and I was able to snap this on my phone before
she woke up, let's just say no naps on vacation finally caught up to her
 so sweet this picture is one of my favorite
when I saw a great coupon code for a canvas I opted for this one
this is a memory I will never forget
I hope one day she gets to hang it in her house and it reminds her of that great place that great moment of togetherness of family and friends
the simple things 



Here it is printed on canvas in a little nook in the hallway
right before you go into our master bedroom but it visible from our living room
*not the best lighting for photos ugh* 


I was nervous about about how the quality would be since it was
done on my phone but it turned out pretty good, the color could be better a little brighter. Could because of the filter I used or pixels from phone to print but I love it regardless

I used Canvas People they have alot of good special offers and coupon codes right now they are having $35 off select canvases 

*I was in no way paid, or received anything from canvas people for my review*
