Welcome to the first fall tour of Our House on the Hill.
In reality it is actually our second fall residing at Our House on the Hill but with moving, my daughter’s serious health decline and my limitations, we chose to forego sharing our home or decor for more than a year but we are back and super excited to share it with you today!
Are you ready?

Halloween Party On a Budget
First, just let me say, I don’t normally celebrate Halloween, let alone host a Halloween Party. Yeah, I might display a few ghosts for a few days and let my teenagers dress up and hand out candy, but when I signed up with House Party a few weeks ago and applied for a Borden Cheese sponsored party, I thought, “What the heck, Go for it!” We did AND we were accepted, so a #Sponsored #BordenCheeseParty it was.
We planned our Halloween Party on a budget, and were in no way compensated for THIS post by Borden Cheese or House Party themselves.

This last weekend we enjoyed a visit with my mother, sister and Grandmother and while they were here I decided we should build some scarecrows. We created three for the yard, which I will share at a later date, and one for my porch.
When I began this project I had NO CLUE how I was going to create, build or make a head for our front porch man. Read more »

This is a snowman that almost anyone can complete on a snowy afternoon with their child, or even alone, for fun.
I created it because there is nothing like making a memory and masterpiece with your child on a cold, snowy day.
