October- flyin by

This school year is surely flying by, which is great, kind of. I love the all the holidays coming up and decorating. I am slowly getting to decorate the house, last year we were putting money towards the wedding and I didn't feel like I could get all the stuff I wanted. This year I feel bad indulging on decorations we use once a year but it makes our house a home. But here are a few of the things I have brought together to help our home be festive (and it adds some spunk for the baby shower this weekend).


I got this cute bunting at Hobby Lobby for 40%off,  always great deals. 


Family name;)


And a wedding pic snuck in there with a Leaves candle from Bath and Body Works is a must. 

I'm sad with all the focus the home has gotten that I did not order Sprinkles costume. She's between sizes, anyone know what I'm talking about, but I did find this one at Michael's on clearance for  $6, steal!



Oh I love it with a big puffy heart!! 

I am loving being married and finding our way in our relationship. it's not right or wrong     it's just us. This weekend doing some married fun- we went to the pumpkin patch with his work as a family day. It was hottest day ever!!! Well I may be a little dramatic but it was very hot. 


It was fun though, and Tim tried his hand at roping a steer (did I say  that right?), 

While he was doing that I was taking a selfie, what else was I supposed to do. 



I am excited and looking forward to what the holidays will bring this season: crazy family   drama, excited times, shopping the sales with the girls. So much to come and definitely be     thankful for.

Baby shower for baby ....... Wait still no name, name or no name he will be here soon. Baby sounds good?!



Oh and a recent guilty pleasure: Parenthood, if you haven't seen it try it out you won"t be disappointed.

Weekend Recap

This weekend has been one of many emotions. Tim got home very late Friday from an out of town trip so that messed up our Friday plans. I woke up Saturday to horrible news of a very dear friends stepbrother had died in a car wreck. I know this brother of hers and he was a fun, out going,  spirited guy. My thoughts and prayers are definitely with her and the family. *** This was Ashley and I with Kyle several years ago at a Tech game***


Tim and I have been talking about a new car for a while and yeah it finally happened!! We knew we probably couldn't do brand new off the lot but I was willing to do new-used. I have a 2014 Ford Explorer, oh it is fun with all its gadgets and as Tim calls them "bells and whistles". Let the baby planning begin!


Saturday evening we went to the Casting Crowns concert, they were amazing! We did leave a little early to go visit with some out-of-town family.


Sunday was a normal Sunday, church-lunch-family- and our usual Whataburger for dinner (some families do roast or cookouts for Sunday dinner, not us).

I am ready for this week to get under way and get back to baby shower planning! (for my sis)
