A Little Bit About Me

Happy Labor Day Weekend!

I used to dread this holiday.

As a kid, it meant that summer was over. Don’t get me wrong. I loved school. I just loved summer vacation more.

Labor Day also meant that the days would soon get shorter and darker in the evenings. (There was a silver lining as we did gain an extra hour of sleep of course.) Because I played three sports in high school and had some sort of practice every day after school, shorter days meant it would likely be dark by the time I got home from practice.

Bummer.

Fortunately, now I am a grown-up. And I love Labor Day weekend.

I still hate to see summer end but I live in Southern California where summer never really ends. (That is because I can almost guarantee every year we have a few 80 degrees plus days in February!)

I am so excited to have a happy Labor Day weekend! This weekend is a wonderful time to celebrate with family, enjoy the beautiful outdoors and get ready for fall.

I thought it might be fun to share some ways to make it even better.

So today I am sharing lots of recipes and fun ideas to add to your happy Labor Day weekend.

Looking for Some Fall Decor Ideas?

Just in case you are looking for fall decor, I wanted to share the fall florals that I am so in love with. Why do I love these?

It’s simple. They are really cheap and look amazing.

Plus, they last a really long time so you will be reusing these next year. I promise.

What’s Ahead for The Week

Next week is going to be very busy. We are filming a commercial Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and I have a lot to get done before they take over my home for three days. We have to completely move out for the entire time so I am not sure if I will have any photos. I have lots of fall ideas to share, including a fall wreath, a fall leaf DIY, a fall pillow (finally!), a fall dinner on the beach, my best fall recipes, and some amazing farmhouse fall decor.

It’s going to be an exciting week at My 100 Year Old Home. Let’s have some fun together.
