We were supposed to be on the coast this weekend celebrating DD’s birthday
We started seeing rain in the forecast on Tuesday
All of a sudden, by Wednesday morning
there was a tropical disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico
We reluctantly called off the weekend…
And by Friday, we knew we had made the right choice
It is not fun to be on the coast during high winds and flooding rain!
Hmmm, I decided do a little Halloween decorating…
I refreshed an old Halloween wreath with new ribbons and a sunflower
and made a matching bow for the mailbox
As I decorated, I kept wondering how can I make DD’s birthday special…
Home Goods to the rescue
DD loves candles and these cuties can be enjoyed by her whole family
Then I tucked in a few healthy treats
Even if you can’t shop at HomeGoods
there are a lot of interesting snack/treat choices at the grocery store
A bundtlette cake stack from Nothing but Bundt cakes was tucked in the center
I tucked in a new carry all pouch set for her purse
because I noticed the ones she is using are worn out
For a pop of color and freshness
I added sunflowers in a painted black bottle
A witch hat {and a check} for the final touch!
We went out to dinner {adults only}
at a trendy local restaurant and had a fantastic time!
Luckily Nestor passed by quickly with no harm to our area
and we will have a chance to go again soon
Gift baskets are my go to for any occasion
Not only are they fun to put together
You can suit them for any occasion or theme
From a host/hostess gift to a holiday gift for good friends
Baskets always bring ohs and ahs!
