I’m really enjoying these posts lately. Not only are they fun a little change up, but they also let me reflect back on the things from the week that were positive, fun, hilarious, and/or happy. So here’s what we’ve got this week…
I finally found my festive fall frames!! For some reason, I stored them in a totally separate closet from the rest of our fall stuff. What was I thinking?!?

To see how I made that frame, for wicked cheap, check out this post.
SOYJOY came out with two new flavors recently: Cranberry and Dark Chocolate Cherry.
How awesome is that, right? They are both so, so good.
I’ve got to include these again because, well, they make me smile anytime I eat one.
Of course, we’ve got to include this week’s Pinterest finds…

And last but not least…the siding on our house is DONE! ![]()
Here’s some before and afters:
We’ve still got a few little detail things to finish up, and we’ll still need a new back deck, but we’re definitely lookin’ better than we were and I am so, so happy it’s finished.
Alright…time to get back to this stinkin’ Jets game. I hate when they go into overtime – I get so nervous!

Your love of all things pumpkin made me want to share a recipe with you. Since I just posted about it, it’s also a shameless (ok, I’m slightly ashamed) plug: Pumpkin and Refried Bean Burritos!
And “two trips” really is for the weak. The majority of my strength training comes from hauling groceries. Get at it!

The chocolate morsels one – me all week. Clearly, I need to get some real chocolate up in here.
Sam @ Better With Sprinkles recently posted..And Then I Ate More Sushi.
Haha oh the chocolate ecard, how I can relate. Lately I’ve been pretty good at keeping my chocolate stash well stocked, but I remember going to town on those Baker’s semi-sweet chocolate squares countless times in the past.
Your new siding looks great!
Amanda @ .running with spoons. recently posted... life’s too short… .
The siding looks beautiful! And I must get my hands on those new soyjoy bar flavors. It’s actually been awhile since I had them and I’m not sure why…time to change that.
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More recently posted..Motivational Monday Sunday
Can you tell me what color your siding is? It looks great!
Thanks! It’s called natural clay
LOVE the siding! It totally changes your house! And I love the cake/boob picture. HILARIOUS.

Congrats on bringing your house into the 21st century!
Looks great!
The siding looks great! And I LOVE that cat with nutella picture. I’m not even usually a big cat fan (but Cody is cute!) but that is too funny.
Michelle (Better with Berries) recently posted..The Perfect First Day of Fall
Hey Courtney! Thought I’d share this recipe with you – my mom has made it a few times before so I took a go at it this weekend and it is to die for!

Hahaha what is it about grocery bags that make me feel invincible…2 trips really are for the weak!!
Khushboo Thadani recently posted..Five Favorites For Friday
Hahah, totally agree. Story of my ‘grocery shopping’ life!
Hahaha… could not stop laughing at the shopping bags. I so do that! Why, it’s like it would kill me to make two trips to get the groceries in. Every time though, I practically cut off the circulation in my fingers to get everything in the house at once, phew! Totally cuteness and LOL at the cat and the Nutella, ha! Loved that.
Your house looks beautiful!! Congrats on getting it all done!!
Laurie @ Love, Laugh, Laurie recently posted..End of the Weekend Fun

I LOVE the harvest/family/blessing picture! I was wondering where I can get one to hang in my house. Do you know?
Thanks!

Good morning. Are the frames you used for your Fall pictures square? I do counted cross stitch and I used to be able to find square frames all over the place and I’m having a really hard finding any square frames now. I looked into having some made but they would cost too much considering it didn’t cost me very much to make the actual picture. I usually don’t go to Michael’s but thought I might if they had square frames that weren’t too expensive. Thanks and have a great day.
Sue
Hey Sue! No, the frames I have are rectangle. Sorry!
Thanks. My eyes are bad. The pictures look square to me. What size are the actual pictures? I just love that idea. LOL.
Sue
I’m pretty sure it’s 8×10 – I printed it on computer paper and remember having to trim it slightly
Hahaha oh man…I’ve been guilty of digging into the semi-sweet chocolate chips in times of desperation! Sometimes you’re just too busy (lazy) to bake, but you need a chocolate fix!
Meghan @ After the Ivy League recently posted..Fall Bucket List
The siding looks awesome! Don’t underestimate those semi sweet chocolate chips! they are darn good
I’m really enjoying these posts

Were you pleased with the company who did you siding? If so, would you mind sharing their name. We need new siding and we live in East Greenbush.
Definitely! We used Navco and they were great
