The <a href="http://icingdesignsonline.blogspot.com/2012/05/diy-ruffled-ice-cream-cones.html">tutorial</a> for them can be found at Melissa and Kellie's fabulous <a href="http://icingdesignsonline.blogspot.com/2012/05/diy-ruffled-ice-cream-cones.html">blog</a>, <a href="http://icingdesignsonline.blogspot.com/2012/05/diy-ruffled-ice-cream-cones.html">Icing Designs</a>. Lillie and I had so much fun making them that we thought it would be fun to make some little ice cream sundaes too! We knew they would be perfect for when she and Lola played "Ice Cream Stand".<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimjZU3mVA6lZHKdB6jAJse1cP61I8LmppgXtlxgyeHZDTMeoNx9ymK0TosOh0qODScaVB4RMpusJG7LKNyIKxC12ZJmxthMVZLs7UhZasYW7sM_8YV6ukQLNekWwkr2L84BKHhnt3ACe4/s1600/iDSC_2365.png"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimjZU3mVA6lZHKdB6jAJse1cP61I8LmppgXtlxgyeHZDTMeoNx9ymK0TosOh0qODScaVB4RMpusJG7LKNyIKxC12ZJmxthMVZLs7UhZasYW7sM_8YV6ukQLNekWwkr2L84BKHhnt3ACe4/s320/iDSC_2365.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> Yes, I know, the "I" looks way more an "L" than an "I".

This will be my last post with things you can do with the lemonade stand. Yay! (Except for the tutorial post which is almost done.) Poor Lola thinks the ice cream is real! And no, we didn't get a dog. The girls want one desperately and I am sure we will get one at some point, but not yet! =) We took these photos at our friend's home on the river and this is their little dog named Ginger. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvSXSg_nv20jiZHBu-Qvy3HzLd5D4nOy_EbVQv7i0WQlwBFQMv4rCx7Daj6qviin2LI1jE-8jfziVOcTRfZAr-Hv19gHpguYtai3_gwXjwBcw5S_gGvuataXAZmEEMyi3KRUq6Ap0GMqs/s1600/iDSC_2143c2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvSXSg_nv20jiZHBu-Qvy3HzLd5D4nOy_EbVQv7i0WQlwBFQMv4rCx7Daj6qviin2LI1jE-8jfziVOcTRfZAr-Hv19gHpguYtai3_gwXjwBcw5S_gGvuataXAZmEEMyi3KRUq6Ap0GMqs/s640/iDSC_2143c2.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivuit2n7Uu_eMYPVlEL-P_ySfmXm_cJnsZZ3lTP_F4dzNgLtLUZITo_zCeO8WRbne3mDM6DeSq6zIGxnzhDdeVIIeHVSEljhcK08E3JzbbUqCC0W6RyReQ6elEcgLaxZ-6OojiUUePspM/s1600/iDSC_2146c.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivuit2n7Uu_eMYPVlEL-P_ySfmXm_cJnsZZ3lTP_F4dzNgLtLUZITo_zCeO8WRbne3mDM6DeSq6zIGxnzhDdeVIIeHVSEljhcK08E3JzbbUqCC0W6RyReQ6elEcgLaxZ-6OojiUUePspM/s640/iDSC_2146c.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC2a8RvNqGPJYc95EzopZTMX2i2eQbKeKwvxNU-fx0iAReatyyfeFHBw1OCfNNHz1cRE7KcFFkAliUK6acUILYTXEp1M_e9yPQol_cR6jRI22OBEqGGwEd9TCCnFM1xBtwDEtJskPS7SQ/s1600/iDSC_2235.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC2a8RvNqGPJYc95EzopZTMX2i2eQbKeKwvxNU-fx0iAReatyyfeFHBw1OCfNNHz1cRE7KcFFkAliUK6acUILYTXEp1M_e9yPQol_cR6jRI22OBEqGGwEd9TCCnFM1xBtwDEtJskPS7SQ/s640/iDSC_2235.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF9hiqDoD4XKFA4EVgkTJ7FYthGPDo1U8gr6J2-1Umv0sURScPE7kbC74o2izl4UQ__WaKU55Iiq9deCuEw4Q75QWxPgPBodlO8DEYN7GkERMrx0vw1_c0iHjox8IJ4hQcBC4FkX0SYA8/s1600/iDSC_2294.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF9hiqDoD4XKFA4EVgkTJ7FYthGPDo1U8gr6J2-1Umv0sURScPE7kbC74o2izl4UQ__WaKU55Iiq9deCuEw4Q75QWxPgPBodlO8DEYN7GkERMrx0vw1_c0iHjox8IJ4hQcBC4FkX0SYA8/s640/iDSC_2294.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Oh no!

I was trying to find an easy fall project we could do and found this idea on the <a href="http://familyfun.go.com/autumn/fall-crafts/nature-crafts/foliage-friends-671141/">Family Fun</a> website. First we went out and collected a whole bunch of leaves, then just got some paper, glue, and a marker and got to work. I figured she would enjoy it because she loves anything crafty but didn't realize she was going to spend all day doing it! I think it was probably one of her favorite projects to date. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM_vPiSTKm5Z-JKkVH3xMYbOo7zAukK6uxv7VahyphenhyphenP9uEUxduB_khh6UwFLVXAwFosH3nMMkH5V-QybfhTA3Y7DlpWl3gRNDYIu7aE5b0RjI2TVG_OEiJOHsLK8k3-tAJ2TT6IkZ1BADLw/s1600/aDSC_0998.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM_vPiSTKm5Z-JKkVH3xMYbOo7zAukK6uxv7VahyphenhyphenP9uEUxduB_khh6UwFLVXAwFosH3nMMkH5V-QybfhTA3Y7DlpWl3gRNDYIu7aE5b0RjI2TVG_OEiJOHsLK8k3-tAJ2TT6IkZ1BADLw/s640/aDSC_0998.png" width="428" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhixUPYlWGLF8_epW2l9BAaLPIM75Rr0vIS1CiXxtcIyUKpLOEEQbuoyYcoHzDFwg2tcHrCcmuqdFcOsa1Hsr_loJ9cRGeE7ViUgVSktzlKvifhljw77vmmBggQ4sg97fBZkXuc6fCV3Xw/s1600/aDSC_1000.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhixUPYlWGLF8_epW2l9BAaLPIM75Rr0vIS1CiXxtcIyUKpLOEEQbuoyYcoHzDFwg2tcHrCcmuqdFcOsa1Hsr_loJ9cRGeE7ViUgVSktzlKvifhljw77vmmBggQ4sg97fBZkXuc6fCV3Xw/s640/aDSC_1000.png" width="428" /></a></div><br />I knew the time had come to start displaying some of her work.  Our fridge is not really the ideal spot in our house for that and we don't have room anywhere for a bulletin board (which is what I would prefer to do) so I decided to hang some twine from the curtain rod and use clothes pins to hang some of the artwork. I think this idea would look really cute in a playroom but seeing how we don't have one I put it up in our kitchen. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxsY_GHZJHe8MBgv7SMFh-iD4kAydB43nTb0ZtIaEWoJDVALAQT0K86WVLd3TiFxc7ayFp9aUeskS_QSlK1CtTAs6v6t4dNmdaU0h3GeHIb8cd-lKLvtCZt6WsiRo9fYUFyiN3kjSydb4/s1600/aDSC_0955.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxsY_GHZJHe8MBgv7SMFh-iD4kAydB43nTb0ZtIaEWoJDVALAQT0K86WVLd3TiFxc7ayFp9aUeskS_QSlK1CtTAs6v6t4dNmdaU0h3GeHIb8cd-lKLvtCZt6WsiRo9fYUFyiN3kjSydb4/s640/aDSC_0955.png" width="406" /></a></div><br />I didn't do much for autumn in our kitchen. Just a few tiny little touches. I am done with our family room though so will try to post photos of that soon. The last space I am still working on is our dining room. I just can't seem to get it right.  Once I do I will post pictures of that too.  <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEippiDE-Zmpe5fgcaPCMSgVsxg_VbXkW60jOeCJpf1U8gozwjvLGoorqEQdWMeNQeQ8H52oacdOra54hNUagrKedavqtcIcIAt-IPBrdp2mSqboZSudBYBhdRy10XlcsfRw7hCrN6SXdj8/s1600/aDSC_0977.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEippiDE-Zmpe5fgcaPCMSgVsxg_VbXkW60jOeCJpf1U8gozwjvLGoorqEQdWMeNQeQ8H52oacdOra54hNUagrKedavqtcIcIAt-IPBrdp2mSqboZSudBYBhdRy10XlcsfRw7hCrN6SXdj8/s640/aDSC_0977.png" width="428" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiptffEXK2Pmwwz7Cigy6PZxKHKmPva2o70MsIUd3ZkUZL8qTfCzSn9TpY9kZrESewqkrukJD8yU2mvELLE-QOkwSihNEdqV4SOyUwuikJwDxzHytBoNUUuUUwlcY9WEtzyyvUBy8NaWlY/s1600/aDSC_0979.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiptffEXK2Pmwwz7Cigy6PZxKHKmPva2o70MsIUd3ZkUZL8qTfCzSn9TpY9kZrESewqkrukJD8yU2mvELLE-QOkwSihNEdqV4SOyUwuikJwDxzHytBoNUUuUUwlcY9WEtzyyvUBy8NaWlY/s640/aDSC_0979.png" width="440" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaUZgyHBIFFrdSs8azQ-MtFwzAmuSxYDleSRKX0O6SVzPHhmZpiyL39jSsDHbDNGx_mZDaMW4zqtvvIGLgIr5l_eQfnl5YE-AVlzSJKIEldugjTXk6PDcjWnTmAcx4NOmpEHd2TjqDlpw/s1600/aDSC_0993.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="434" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaUZgyHBIFFrdSs8azQ-MtFwzAmuSxYDleSRKX0O6SVzPHhmZpiyL39jSsDHbDNGx_mZDaMW4zqtvvIGLgIr5l_eQfnl5YE-AVlzSJKIEldugjTXk6PDcjWnTmAcx4NOmpEHd2TjqDlpw/s640/aDSC_0993.png" width="640" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrByhwhyphenhyphenJC2V1AGr4kGkODVCne4JE8NASgaU85zNeZglr7L5MCvwijNCLr1QIubpuB9jNTYoKctGXDVvZLK3931pvXgAfkTjwnobn7-PHEWonXMAfzSh8u-hBImxVtvdCnTHx3MSectAI/s1600/aDSC_0742.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrByhwhyphenhyphenJC2V1AGr4kGkODVCne4JE8NASgaU85zNeZglr7L5MCvwijNCLr1QIubpuB9jNTYoKctGXDVvZLK3931pvXgAfkTjwnobn7-PHEWonXMAfzSh8u-hBImxVtvdCnTHx3MSectAI/s640/aDSC_0742.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> And now, I am SUPER excited to announce the winner of our last giveaway.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnOe61B59Ap8gSxN5oR_HgUKsK62HJvIG62wQKZcuuNsbY83bw3ypIBvapgTGONZDHWIUTh27icxzeNe_kUAfAgZH04qLvTIXVdAMhm2A57DuwgqPjUJgcZS_UXrEquwu_MnTprbFhays/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-10-03+at+1.22.47+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnOe61B59Ap8gSxN5oR_HgUKsK62HJvIG62wQKZcuuNsbY83bw3ypIBvapgTGONZDHWIUTh27icxzeNe_kUAfAgZH04qLvTIXVdAMhm2A57DuwgqPjUJgcZS_UXrEquwu_MnTprbFhays/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-10-03+at+1.22.47+AM.png" /></a></div><br />We use Random.org to pick our winners so it is always a surprise to me after I take a screenshot of the number picked, to scroll down and see who it was that won.
