It's great that you swap and share with other families. It's done in my area too and in fact my niece recently got back a jacket for her youngest son that she had purchased for her oldest son 15 years ago. They figured out that it had been through eight other children! It was a high quality jacket and still looked perfect after all those wearings! I guess the lesson is to buy good and it lasts! You're an inspiration to me and I'm waiting for your book to come. Great work, Hillary
That's what I say. You get what you pay for. Good quality lasts for years. I had a beautiful blue jacket that was handed down to several family members. I've never been able to find that color again. Have a great day. 🦊🌻🦊
My best friend always takes our family photos for us just on her iPhone and they always look great! It’s easy, free, and kids more relaxed knowing her so well lol
I love this time of year, apple crisp, fall decorations, plaid flannel, comfort food ,and vlogtober videos every morning. I know it’s a lot of work for you, but we all enjoy it so much.🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁
My mom. Who be 96 if still alive....always made her apple crisp like you do, and of course I do too. I have tried other recipes,but always come back to what I grew up with, the best....simple and delicious !
Our dslr camera was the best investment ever. I have been doing pictures for my kids for years now. They turn out amazingly so often. Hope you get some nice pictures!
Hello Hilary. Dinner and dessert looked very good. Love the outfits you chose. I think using your phone is a great idea. And if the weather isn’t good, you can take them in front of your fireplace ☺️. Enjoy your day.
Yes! We started the tradition of “fall pictures” of our kids and in 15 years have only had professional photos one time! My husband has a good camera and dabbles in photography and they turn out great!
Thanks so much for sharing your recipes. We like simple, healthy, and tasty basics, so we'll try your apple crisp. You're so well organized, I'm hoping the weather and temperaments will cooperate for the family photos on Sunday.
I think the Christmas picture taking idea is great. I agree with your thoughts on it. I love the ghost 👻 with the lights. I’m not sure what the name would be, ? stewed apples?, but- I just put peeled sliced apples in a pot with lots of cinnamon and a little apple juice and cook until soft. At the end, I add a little maple syrup to them. We eat them in a bowl and add a little vanilla ice cream. Easy and delicious.
Glad Jude is feeling better. Love the abundance of apples this time of year. So many delicious possibilities 😊. Recently have been making the topping for my crisps with brown butter. It’s incredibly delicious. Love how effortlessly the colour palette for your Christmas photos came together. They will look amazing I’m sure. Thanks for sharing. Have a lovely day 😊.
We did the same thing this past Sunday-wore things that went together to church, then snapped a few pictures on my phone afterward. They turned out darling! I really like the ensembles you put together for your family pictures. :)
I gifted your holiday planner to a friend for her birthday and she loved it! We are older and enjoy practical gifts..not needing more of decor, clothes..etc. thinking of buying one for myself too.
That ghost is so cute! Ordered your Christmas planner yesterday and am looking forward to planning and prepping with it. I will leave a review when I have it In hand. ❤️
Picture should be lovely. Sometimes I wish I could simply sit at your table and taste those easy meals you create. Look absolutely delicious!! Blessings!
I have stopped giving Christmas cards. I realize at the end of the year, I throw them out. They are part of what I declutter without skipping a beat. So I guess, people throw out the ones I give too. For last year, I gave reusable Christmas cards. They were reusable because they were swedish dish clothes. This summer, I was at a cousin's place and she had our Christmas card on her sink. She thought it was cool. I will do it again this year as a way to lessen the waste.
Hi Hilary. I am supposed to be on holiday but daughter had a small accident yesterday and needed to stay I hospital over night and had surgery today. Its been extremely difficult and stressful. Watching your vids, new and old, has helped keep me entertained and distracted a little through this upsetting time so thank you, you are a blessing to me. God bless you. X
Hillary are you familiar with six sisters stuff? They do a lot of make ahead meal prep. Have you had any chance to read any of the Gladys Taber books? I still can’t put them down!
I love the clay looking ghost. The clothes you chose will make a great photo. We use our phones all the time. The dinner and apple crisp looked great. Glad Jude's doing better. Take care. 🦊🌻🧡🍎
How funny, my toddler son has the exact same striped shirt you showed in the basement! The orange and white and teal one. :) Your dinner looked amazing! :)
Great video, dinner and the cobbler have me thinking about what to fix today. You had a tip about the descale button on the Keurig, could you tell me what to do?
Love your ghost with the lights!! 👻 Do you still watch the Crazy Lamp Lady? I checked out Caroline Winkler because you mentioned her ~ what a hoot!! 😂 Thank you for sharing other TH-camrs with us!! Happy Hump Day!! 🐪 I hope Jude is feeling better!! Hugs from Las Vegas!! 🧡🎃
I cooked two grated carrots and half an onion in olive + sesame oil, then added in a pound of ground pork, seasoned with dried ginger, coconut aminos (could sub soy sauce), a little maple syrup (sub honey) and garlic. Then I roasted the green beans with olive oil, salt and pepper. Served with rice, sesame seeds, and scallions. Quick and delicious Chinese-esque food 💛
Depending on the age of the phone and its camera the pictures may come out a bit pixalated/not crisp. I had my kids senior pics printed from a phone camera and they were not the best quality photos. The person who photographed them took photos with both a phone and a big expensive camera and the pics taken with the phone looked better on the screen so we chose to print those...big mistake Just an fyi. This did happen a few years ago so I am sure phone cameras have gotten better since then.
Nothing more than my opinion, but I would change out the lighter colored shirt for a darker one so it blends better with the rest of the outfits. I think , in the pictures, the lighter shirt will stand out too much. Just my point of view 🤗🍃🍂🍁🎃💗✝

My best friend always takes our family photos for us just on her iPhone and they always look great! It’s easy, free, and kids more relaxed knowing her so well lol
My sister does that for our family pictures to just on her iPhone :) I just edit them to make them brighter then print them out :)

Apple crisp looks delish!!!! 🍏🍎
I love apple crisps. I have been making it a lot already this fall.
Picture should be lovely. Sometimes I wish I could simply sit at your table and taste those easy meals you create. Look absolutely delicious!! Blessings!
My Crisp🍎is beeping at me 😊 Reminds of me of My Washing Machine
it is always beeping at Me 😊.....👕👖👚
@@elaine483 Yes Elaine ~ that is so true!
My new washing machine plays a little tune when it’s done. I love it.
@@jannier9766 That sounds nice Jannie 🎶
Much better than incessant beeping like mine has......
Dinner looked great!
I Iove the little ghost!! I put out Halloween decorations yesterday! And the Dollar Tree has some really cute Halloween decorations!!! 🎃🎃

Vlogtober is by far my favorite. You inspire me.
Such a great idea for photos! I am gonna be doing this with my sister now! 🙌
That ghost though 😍 I haven't made apple crisp yet. I need to do that soon.

Praying for your sweet girl! 🙏🏼💛
@@OldWorldHome thank you 😊 🙏
😊love the updates. Happy everyone is feeling better. Vlogtober is the best. Apples 🍎 look amazing. Thanks for sharing 😊
My little boys both had the striped H&M sweater. It’s so cute 🥰.

The new found ghost is so charming.
Great video, dinner and the cobbler have me thinking about what to fix today. You had a tip about the descale button on the Keurig, could you tell me what to do?
How long did your baby nap? Seems you get alot done! I have sick a hard time getting my 1yr old to nap or sleep through the night😭
Another great vlog thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing!! Keep up the good work!
🧡
Sauce. Juice, Cake, etc.
Love the ghost!
❤
Love your ghost with the lights!! 👻 Do you still watch the Crazy Lamp Lady? I checked out Caroline Winkler because you mentioned her ~ what a hoot!! 😂 Thank you for sharing other TH-camrs with us!! Happy Hump Day!! 🐪 I hope Jude is feeling better!! Hugs from Las Vegas!! 🧡🎃
I would love to know more about this dinner that looked sooo good. Do you have the ingredients? 😊
I cooked two grated carrots and half an onion in olive + sesame oil, then added in a pound of ground pork, seasoned with dried ginger, coconut aminos (could sub soy sauce), a little maple syrup (sub honey) and garlic. Then I roasted the green beans with olive oil, salt and pepper. Served with rice, sesame seeds, and scallions. Quick and delicious Chinese-esque food 💛
You’ve inspired me to make an apple crisp today! 🍎
Enjoy 💞🍎
Good morning
Darling do you no longer use Aldi? Yayyy the swap
We do the majority of our groceries at Aldi, every two weeks ❤️
What is the paint color/brand above fireplace. It appears neutral with a tinge of green?
Our whole living/dining/kitchen is Anew Gray by Sherwin Williams. The green tinge comes from the light coming through the window 💚
@@OldWorldHome I assume it’s a warm gray. I’m starting a huge painting project at home
Depending on the age of the phone and its camera the pictures may come out a bit pixalated/not crisp. I had my kids senior pics printed from a phone camera and they were not the best quality photos.

Love your fireplace! Do you use it? Is it natural or gas?
It’s natural/wood. We don’t use it hardly ever but I would like to use it more!
@@OldWorldHome You should. It really makes the room look so cozy.
Nothing more than my opinion, but I would change out the lighter colored shirt for a darker one so it blends better with the rest of the outfits. I think , in the pictures, the lighter shirt will stand out too much. Just my point of view 🤗🍃🍂🍁🎃💗✝
I’d be careful of all the plaid in the photos. You have to be so careful of who stands near who so they don’t clash. Love the classic look though.
🎃😊👍
