That’s Utah’s Fall and Spring for ya!
Yesterday it got up to 87 degrees. YESTERDAY!
Today…. well, need I say more.

Yes that’s snow on the mountain behind our house. The snow was only about 2 miles from our house and we got several flakes too, but nothing that stuck.
I love Fall!

Well, that’s exactly what it is. FUN!
I bought some chalkboard paint 3 months ago and finally got the nerve to try it. It’s so fun! I don’t know why a postpone some projects for so long. I always think it’ll be hard or that I won’t do it correctly, so I put it off, until… I finally get up the nerve to try it. And then I find out that it’s so easy!
I bought a cheapo sliver tray at D.I. for 50 cents and just painted right over it!

I got this frame for free from someone and painted the chalkboard paint right onto the glass! I finished this one late one night and decided it was too much black. I looked through all my paints but didn’t really like them with the black, so I did what any creative person would do. I raided my fingernail polish. So don’t look too closely at the pink. At least it worked!

Walmart had these cute square plates. 4 for a $1! So I turned them into little chalkboards for my kids!

I’m still not finished. I’m trying to decide exactly where I would like to have chalkboards, so I don’t go over board and do all the walls with it. So fun! If you haven’t tried this stuff yet, you should!

In an open field in front of Sandy City Hall, they put up American flags. One for each person who died because of the attacks on 9-11.
