The best way to celebrate. I loved everything about this museum even though I'm not really a Star Wars fan. There's so much fabulous art to see, and it's all so beautifully curated. The thing I like most about it, though, is that this is art that George Lucas collected because he loved it, and he appreciated the story that it told. This museum is not just about the Lucas Star Wars legacy, it's about his passion for art. And that made me so happy.

It was a good night. So proud of my husband's contribution!

Fingers crossed.

40 days. 100-129 hours. Lots of second guessing. 2 trips to Michaels. Losing the proper needle countless times. And sequins all over the bedroom! Knowing that Frances might remember me when Christmas comes...priceless.

This was a lovely was to start November. It coincides with All Saints Day in the Catholic Faith, and it felt a little like I was honoring the saints in my life by creating an altar to honor them.

What a fun adventure! And there were so many other fun ornaments that I thought I needed -- but I showed perfect restraint! Just one splurge at a time!

It's getting to be the holidays, and it's a time when I begin to miss my mom the most. But I have such lovely memories, and I am forever grateful for that.

We've always got a project! And this one is going to do double duty! Chekc back on Halloween!
