Random thoughts on a happy Saturday morning:
1. Have you ever played Mahjong before?
I am HOOKED.
I taught the twins and my mom and my nephew and we have some friends coming over tonight to play. It is so much fun.
2. Does your doormat ever get dirty? I just saw the best solution that protects your doormat (especially because we are heading into muddy season).

3. This next weekend is the first football game. I’m looking at you, Baylor. I’m thinking about wearing cowboy boots.
But then I remembered I’ll be sitting in the sun for four hours.
Decisions. Decisions.
4. We just watched the sweetest movie. It’s called The Keeper. It’s based on a true story about a German POW who became the goal keeper for the Manchester United Football (Soccer) team in England.
There’s a little romance, a little comeback story and it’s such a feel-good movie.

- 21 fall hutch decorating ideas
