Saturday Suggestions

 

Happy Saturday, friends! Today is a very special day, and I can’t wait to tell you more about it next week! Meanwhile…I have some fun finds for you.

ONE. 

I loved this beautiful little devotional thought that draws the most beautiful life lesson from the changing and falling leaves of the autumn season. I hope it encourages you today! It helped me gain some valuable perspectives on life!

TWO. 

For this week’s fun house tour, check out this beauty that sits right on the Indiana/Michigan line – just a short walk from the shores of Lake Michigan. It really is a storybook cottage. So dreamy!

THREE. 

I haven’t seen the movie Nights in Rodanthe, but I really enjoyed reading this article about how the house used in the movie was moved to safer ground. This is a HUGE house to move! After being moved, it was renovated so the interior (filmed on a sound stage) resembled the look of the movie. Apparently it’s also for sale, so if you’re looking for a movie house, and you have a few million to spare, here you go!

FOUR. 

Ryan found this little interview clip of Carrie Underwood talking about what all goes into recording the Sunday Night Football theme song. I found it extremely intriguing, especially the part about how they record the playoff combinations! (Also, the song is the only part of football night that I understand. Ha!)

FIVE. 

There are some really cute and simple fall decorating ideas in here. I particularly love the candlestick inside the lantern. Never would have thought of it! I have a couple of empty lanterns, so now I know what to look for at the thrift store!

SIX. 

This article has great advice about things to declutter before you head into winter. I especially applaud the suggestion to rummage through the medicine cabinet and dispose (properly!) of any expired medication. And then do your future feeling-icky self a favor and make sure you have the over-the-counter staples on hand so if something hits quickly, you don’t have to drag yourself to the store!
