**I'M DOING A GIVEAWAY IN HONOR OF BREAKING DAWN, SO IF YOU'RE A TWI-HARD THEN CHECK BACK SOON**

Gallery Wall

Happy weekend ya'll!!!
This is a seriously overdue post as we did this little project on our staycation back in July!!
We wanted to do a gallery wall in our upstairs hallway with some of our favorite photos. We used a template we found on google and just picked different size frames and really eyeballed it and that was it!! Wasn't that difficult at all and we loved the end product! (I'm using my iPad to do this post so I can't figure out how to arrange the photos...They'er a little out of order but you'll get the gist) : )

Five Things Friday!

Hello Lovelies!  I've been a bad blogger lately and I was so excited because I was on a roll there.  The craziest thing is that I think about blogging all the time, I think about what I can blog about, what pictures to take and then it all just never happens.  I'm such a procrastinator! 

Anyway!  Below is my list of the five things I hope to accomplish this weekend!  The weather is going to be chilly and wonderful! : ) 

1. Have some friends over for dinner tonight!  I'm making Chicken with succotash, brie stuffed mushrooms a la Pioneer Woman, brown rice, and bread pudding for dessert!
2. Sit outside with a fire in the kiln, I love it when the weather is cool enough to do this.
3. Organize my 31 stuff (did ya'll know I'm a 31 consultant??) Post on that coming soon with a giveaway no less!
4. Clean my house up for potential book club on Wednesday (no one has actually finished the book so I don't know whether we'll have it or not)  We're such slackers!!
5. Paint my nails!  I love to do this on Sunday evening, it's a new color for the work week! I'll post pics!

That's it, what do ya'll have planned for this weekend?  Anything fun?!

3 Years Ago....

I can't believe that on Tuesday Hubby and I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary!  I feel like we've been together forever and yet, at the same time, I can't believe it's been 3 years already.  So far the journey has been pretty great and I know the best is yet to come! : )  I love that man more than words can say!

 

We celebrated by going to see Wicked!  I loved it and Hubby actually really liked it as well.  I read the book years ago so was really interested to see how they had turned it into a musical.

Before we went to Wicked we had dinner at Balliceaux, it's a great little resturant that's got a perfect atmosphere for date nights. : )

It's funny because I actually started blogging so I'd have somewhere to keep track of all my wedding planning.  I had the added bonus of meeting so many wonderful ladies who were doing the same thing and it's amazing to see where they are in their own journeys.

I'm off to the Outer Banks for the weekend.  I'll try to take lots of pics to share on Monday! : )  Happy Weekend All!

Meet Jack

My newest nephew! My little brother is now a daddy....so weird! Jack is so little and so sweet, I took the new parents dinner this week and got in some love time with the little guy. I was really tempted to take him home with me but I figured not the best idea.

5 Things Friday: Fall Edition

Hi Friends!  I'm bringing back 5 Things Friday.  When I first started my blog and was deep into the wedding planning I did a 5 Things Friday to try and keep me on track and it actually really helped.  Now I'd like to pick that up again with things I need to get done over the weekend.  So here we go!

1. Put outside Halloween decorations up!  I'm all about my Halloween decs! : )
2. Laundry - I know, boring, but if I don't put it on here it might "fall" through the cracks, get it, Fall, sorry....
3. Movies with Hubby - Really want to go and see Contagion, looks like a good one.
4. Need a few new Fall wardrobe pieces.  I'll be checking at Target, Ann Taylor Loft, and New York & Company.
5. I got a huge can of Pumpkin puree and I need to make something with it!  I just don't know if I should make pumpkin bread or something a little more adventerous!  What do you think???  Any suggestions!?

Have a lovely Fall weekend ya'll!!!  : )

Flavors of Fall!

Hi Friends!

Fall is almost here and I can't wait!  I'm so in love with Fall, the crisp air, the decorations, the colors, and the flavors!!!

I love apple and cinnamon flavors during fall they're just so warm and cozy.

One of my favorites is the Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice, YUM!

Starbucks

And another thing I love is to sprinkle a little cinnamon in my coffee grounds before brewing my coffee!  It gives the coffee the best cinnamon flavor and reminds me of fall!

Do ya'll have any favorite flavors for fall?
