I love bright colors. I love flowers. I love happy cards. I love hearts. I love texture. I love making cards. I love the person I made this card for. 🙂

You can order from my online store and see everything I used to make this card at the bottom of this post.

I’m part of the Festive Friday Design Team and this week’s challenge #FF0147 is World Hello Day which is November 21st.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! And guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about Remembrance Day/Veteran’s Day – at all! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! Even if you’ve never entered a card challenge before, now is the time to start. It’s fun and it’s free! It will help inspire your creativity. Please join us! From the Inspo List I used bright colors (ok making a card with bright colors isn’t really a challenge for me), two of something, and hello sentiment.

We were in Austin, Texas for a long weekend with our two oldest sons and their wives. This is the upstairs of Sean and Amy’s new house. Ryan and Bree flew down, and Steve and I drove to Texas. I love to drive and who wouldn’t want to spend 15 hours in the car each way?!

We spent the night in Waco and I had this delicious breakfast at Chip & Joanna Gaines’ Magnolia Table the next morning. The bacon was amazing! If you plan to visit Waco, email me at Beth@StampingMom.com. We’ve been to Waco on almost every Texas visit over the last three years and I have lots of advice for you, if you want it.

Spice Village is 60 clothing & decor boutiques under one roof. I always find super cute and reasonably priced items at Spice Village in Waco.

I usually make homemade pie crust, but for these mini pies I used Pillsbury and it worked out really well. I got 4 single crust mini pies from each sheet of pie crust and made pumpkin and leaf embellishments with the extra dough.

Amy wanted the mini pumpkin pie.

Steve and Sean wanted mini pecan pies.

Ryan, Bree and I chose mini coconut cream pies. This pie is made with my dear friend, Donna’s, homemade pudding recipe. Everyone was happy with their mini pies. Sean made brisket on his smoker/grill and it was delicious! We all loved Amy’s specialty loaded mashed potatoes. I also made our family favorite, Corn Casserole. It was fun to celebrate Thanksgiving with our kids in Texas. Amy’s table and the entire house was decorated beautifully.

We also had fun going to Wurstfest and doing the polka. You can see those pictures and Sean in his lederhosen  here.

Steve and I were blessed to spend a very fun weekend in Texas hosted by our oldest son, Sean, and his sweet wife, Amy. On Saturday we drove to New Braunfels to attend Wurstfest. Wurstfest is a festival originally created to celebrate sausage in 1961 and has grown into an annual bash which draws thousands of visitors a day to the dedicated Wurstfest Festival Grounds. Many of the visitors come in traditional German attire as you can see in this picture. The guys wear lederhosen and typically a plaid shirt. Lederhosen are like short overalls made of leather. Sean never liked dressing up so I’m guessing that this shows just how much Sean loves his wife. Amy looks adorable! Sean, Amy and their friends go tubing on the river often during the summer at this same location in New Braunfels.

Steve and I drove to Texas on Wednesday and came back on Sunday. It takes us about 15 hours each way. We were very excited our son, Ryan, and his sweet wife, Bree, were able to fly down and spend the weekend. Here’s Steve and both our sons with their wives. On my Wednesday post, I’ll have more pictures and stories about our trip.

There were several different bands playing at three different venues while we were there. Steve and I danced the polka and the waltz a couple times, which was very fun. We even taught all four of the young adults to polka. What fun!
