Glory Hallelujah, it’s Friday, tomorrow is the first day of October, and the State Fair of Texas starts today. Ain’t life grand.
Here are my favorites from this past week:
- I, Kat Williamson, am a plant killer. In fact, I have a mostly dead (maybe totally dead—verdict’s still out) fiddle leaf in my apartment as we speak. Try as I might, I just don’t have a green thumb. But, I saw this cute illustration on Pinterest this week and it definitely inspired me to try the plant thing again.
Sadly, I just noticed that the fiddle leaf fig tree is listed here as one of the nine easiest plants to keep alive. As I just killed one, maybe there truly is no hope for me. - Call me Cruella de Vil, but I’ve been all about the dalmatian print fad lately. It seems fall-appropriate and is just plain fun. I especially loved this dalmatian print headboard…
- We’ve finally reached some autumn-like temps here in North Texas, and that, my friends, is a definite favorite from this week.
- My sister and friend celebrated the big 3-0 this week! Becca is a feisty and kind soul. We Williamson’s love her heart for Jesus, her strong leadership qualities, and her overall flair for the dramatic. (We’ve all agreed that she makes our lives so much less dull!) In birthday tradition, I sent her a gift, a mixed CD (because I like to pretend it’s still 2002), and a goofy birthday poem. This year the birthday poem was a bit of a struggle…I mean, I’ve been coming up with these things for at least 15 years now—I’m running out of material! Even still, that tradition is one of my very favorites, as is the birthday girl herself.
There you have it. Short and sweet round up of favorites this week! Now I’m off to East Texas for a middle school retreat. Prayers for safety and sanity always appreciated. :)
