Five on Friday #8

I'm linking up with some other blogs to share

Five on Friday with the Ferrell boys and me!

[ 1 ]     Lane Coleman's birthday party

Lane Coleman was one of Shane's favorite friends from school, but his family moved to another town so we don't get to see him very often.  He had his birthday party here at our school's football field and invited all his good ole friends from Central.  Shane was really excited about seeing him.

It was so much fun seeing all the children in their football uniforms and cheerleader suits.  Shane wore Zach's pants, pads, and jersey to the party.  He was so cute.

He even posed with me for a picture.  :)

[ 2 ]     Frosty Follys

Our local businesses have an annual Christmas Open House event in November and that was the same day as Lane's birthday party.  We only made it to the Farm Supply store.  It was worth the trip just for the cotton candy.

[ 3 ]  Palazzo pants party

My friend Laycee and I went to a Palazzo pants party.  It was surprisingly a lot of fun.  I never would have thought that I would buy a pair of those wild, big-legged pants but here are my pants . . .

The whole reason I went to the party was to buy an Origami necklace/locket because the lady sells those as well as the palazzo pants.  I love my locket.  It has a little boy charm for each of my boys with their birthstone, and I also got a little cross charm.  I will probably wear it every day.  I love it that much.

I'm also planning to have a pants party in December so if you're interested in coming, let me know!

[ 4 ]     Holiday Decorating

I've been having fun crafting and decorating for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I posted pictures of my Thanksgiving banner . . .

and I started on a Christmas craft project, but I haven't shared the finished product with you yet.  Here's a peak at where I am on that project . . . almost finished . . .  what could it be . . .

[ 5 ]     Fireplace

My Daddy started working on my Living Room fireplace.  It's been unfinished since we first moved in the house.

He started working on it Monday afternoon . . .

Got all the tiles laid out and cemented to the front of the fireplace on Tuesday . . .

He started applying the grout on Wednesday . . .

And all it needs now is for me to keep cleaning it until all the grout residue is gone . . .  

Next week, he is going to start building me a Mantel . . .  I am so blessed to have my Daddy.  :)

So there's my Five on Friday!  Hope you've enjoyed this quick look into this very busy past week with . . .
