Autumn in my eyes

Although I'm more excited than you know for Christmas. I am trying to enjoy the most beautiful fall Utah has given us in a few years. It's been warm and hasn't snowed before the leaves have changed colors. I love hot soups & coffee, wearing sweaters & longs sleeves, pumpkins & the color of the leaves. We've taken afternoon walks, carved pumpkins, made lots of food and spent lots of time prepping our house for the winter (& Christmas! ) What do you enjoy most about this time of year?

Capturing Your Family

How are you going to capture you're family? Will it only be important moments? Or all the moments in between? I think these two photographers are amazing in the way they capture the personality of people.

My goal for November is to take more photos. Photos like these!

Look Ma! New Shoes

Don't you love when you find an absolutely good thrift find? How about these shoes that cost me a whopping $4.00? I'm absolutely ecstatic about this find. I usually don't find great thrift shoes because they are either really worn out/ dirty or the cute ones aren't in my size! Darn you size 7 feet... don't you know that's the average size for women? Well thrift store, keep the cute shoes coming!!

The Night of Nights

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope it's a good one! It's one of the days of the year we get to act childlike again and get a way with it! I'll be handing out candy to the little one's tonight while making a Halloween feast for Drew & I. What are your plans? What are you dressing up as?

Lovely Friday!

Friday always comes just in time, doesn't it? I'm ready for some time off from work. This weekend I will be prepping our house for the inevitable snowfall. I'll be baking some yummy Halloween treats for a Monday potluck at my work. Me & Drew will be spending some time at Halloween festivities & I'll also be meeting with the cutest bride to discuss the flowers for her wedding.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend! Get one of these in if you can & enjoy your Halloween festivities.

Home Inspiration: Animals

Is this a trend to hit or miss? Little animals knickknacks used to decorate with. I personally like the whimsical style of it. I'm just not sure if I could make it look as great as these.  My favorite is the birthday cake dinosaur & the bottle brush Christmas Ornaments. Or how about just a photo of the animals on the wall. That might be cool right?

So what do you think, yay or nay?

November Wishlist

I learned a new trick for all you Mac users! Usually I screen print for images that won't allow me to save to my folders. But I found out you can select what you screen print. Just hit command, shift and the number 4. You will notice that your mouse will now have a cross. Select the area you want to screen print and let go. Wallah!!

I'm in love with red-orange of all hues this Autumn! Can't you tell? Now that it's cooling off I need  some new flats! I have dozens of sandals, but hardly any flats! These sparkly loafers from JCrew are to die for! I'm going to have to find a less expensive pair though! I also need some new mittens and a new wallet. Okay, and how about that grey and red-orange blanket? I'm in love! I also have the desire to start collecting something. I was thinking of vintage sheers. What do you think?

I found some of these things at Mohawk General Store and Brook Farm General Store. They have the most stunning products! Half of which will be on my Xmas list!
