Our house would be filled with the scent of fall candles or whichever delicious fall treat my mom was baking that week (her pumpkin bars … Continue reading Why You Should Take a Foliage Trip
It's that time of the year. Time to break out the sweaters. This is something I look forward to all year long. From the time I pack my sweaters away for summer I anxiously await the arrival of cooler temps to break them out again. I honestly would wear sweaters year round if I could... … Continue reading Sweater Weather
This time of the year everyone is obsessed with "pumpkin spice everything". Except for me. To be honest I really don't care for pumpkin spice flavored treats.

I was beginning to think that we were not meant to go apple picking. I had never been and was desperately wanting to go this year.

Our original plan for this past weekend was to go apple picking on Sunday to celebrate the first weekend of fall. When we first made these plans it was supposed to be 70 degrees out which seemed like the perfect fall day for apple picking. As the weekend grew closer the forecast changed to 90 … Continue reading Picking Out Our Fall Decor
