Hello Friends
The lack of posts here on my end did NOT mean I had nothing new to report! On the contrary, there has been so much going on that I just didn’t get a chance to update the site. I have some wonderful news to report: our son Nathaniel was born last weekend on October 12th!🙂 He is a beautiful, dark haired little guy who I just fell in love with immediately. He is the 4th in the proud line of little “Wimmer Boys”. His brothers have been very dear with him, and my 4 year old sweetly calls him “Afaniel”. He came almost 2 weeks “early” so we were a bit surprised. That day I had gone shopping all afternoon at the Leesburg outlets and then visited my sister and her new horse at a country stable. I had no idea what I would be in for that night….
As it turns out last weekend was also the weekend for our BIG move. We are moving locally and my husband had been packing up a truck all day. He showed up at the hospital around 11:30 p.m. in a 24′ moving truck! Getting in to the parking garage was impossible. The baby was born at 5:30 the next morning and it was probably the easiest delivery I’ve had yet. We have so much to be thankful for…and will laugh about all the chaos that weekend one day! So for now I’m staying with my parents for another week or so and will move in to our temporary rental soon. We will be building our dream house, and that will take almost a year! I’d love to share some pictures, but my computer/camera cable is packed. I’ll hopefully post some pictures soon. For now, I found this sweet sketch that really reminds me of Nathaniel.
For now please consider me on “maternity leave” and I will be back to post when I can!

It’s Monday night (late!) already and I haven’t had a chance to share some pics from the weekend! Today was so crazy, which is an understatement when your car battery dies twice in one day! Needless to say 1) taking the kids to school and then picking them up at the end of the day were impacted and 2) the car is now in the shop! I can’t have unreliability with everything going on right now! :-O
The weekend started off great with my oldest son’s 8th birthday! On Friday we celebrated his birthday with kids from his class at a fun bounce facility (first time we didn’t host the party at home, but we’re in the middle of a move!)…and a little “Wall-e” theme mixed in. Here’s our birthday boy!
And the family birthday excitement grew the very next day with the birth of my new nephew! My brother and his wife welcomed their second little boy on October 4th. If only he wasn’t in CA…I can’t wait to get my hands on him, that adorable little tamale bundle!
And…my little sis has a long-awaited member to add to her animal family. She is now the proud owner of a beautiful horse named Deuce. Look at those soulful eyes. Isn’t he a charmer?
Now that’s the latest around here! Have a great week!

Jack Rabbit! …remember the deal on the 1st of the month….
To kick off October and welcome the Fall, I thought I’d post a few inspiring autumn finds from Etsy. Look at the beautiful colors on this hand-felted merino wool brooch from Felt Gallery by VaivaNat. Can’t you just see this on a coat lapel or pinned to your tote? The designer will even swap out the pin and turn it into a hair clip if you’re daring.
I really like the design and color combination on this “Golden Leaves” resin pendant by caught red handed. Her site has so many great pendants to choose from.
Now talk about just plain adorable….look at these handmade rubber stamps by norajane. So many great stamps to choose from in this shop. I’ve marked it as a favorite and plan to go back….
Brezomayo Designs creates little linen, hand-embroidered items for the home. This Fall ornament caught my eye.
And here, I have a Fall piece to add too…a pearl and Swarovski crystal clustered pendant.
Have a Wonderful Wednesday!
