A few family photos from Thanksgiving this year. Grateful to be able to celebrate with our families in person (inside!) this year.
Fall Leaves
I had my doubts but this Fall has ended up with beautiful, very colorful leaves! Dale and I have enjoyed a lot of walks around the neighborhood, especially on nice weather days.
October Around The Web
October is coming to a close — we started the month at another wedding celebrating our friends Jon and Emily, our dining room table finally arrived after being restored, I had a few fun happy hours with work friends (Cafe Trio in KC always decorates for Halloween!), we celebrated my sister Sophie’s birthday with Indian food, we attended a baby shower for Dale’s co-workers, went to a Louisburg football game with Laura & Ashton, spent a weekend at Turkey Hill for Oktoberfest, wrapped up Holiday Mart 2021 with a happy hour, had dinner with Brandon &Sonya and Megan & Matt/Mary & Kam around Dale’s birthday, and then headed to Nashville for Dale’s 30th! Looking back we were able to see so many friends and family which made the month fly by!
Around the web this month, I am feeling inspired by Joanna to put together a fall grazing board! Her styling is always beautiful!
Which would go perfectly with an Apple Cider Margarita…
Speaking of food, this was an interested read about the revival of 90s’ food/drinks right now
Chris and Julia’s thoughts on mixing metals (something I love to do!)
Halloween wedding inspiration that could influence a Halloween party as well
A fun check print DIY
And Halloween decor from Amazon in case you want to stock up for next year!
I would love to hang hats like this on my porch next Halloween
To wrap us up, an Applesauce Cake Recipe
Happy Halloween!
Farmers’ Market Blooms
We finally made it to the Brookside Farmers’ Market and I came home with some beautiful Fall blooms! The perfect start to our Saturday.
Fall Blooms
Fall blooms from dear friends really brightened up a hard week. Hope your Fall is filled with cooler days and colorful leaves!
September Around The Web
September was all about weddings! Before all the festivities began we started the month with a Labor Day weekend boating at Turkey Hill and had dinner to celebrate Barbara’s birthday at Lake Winnebago. The next week Grace and I got our nails done before Laura and Ashton’s wedding weekend, Holiday Mart held our Pre-Con meeting, and then Dale and I packed and headed to LA to celebrate Matt and Caitlin. As soon as we were home Holiday Mart move-in and show week began! This month was a whirlwind and had some definite lows as well. Fall has arrived and I’m having a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that there are just a few months left in 2021. Never have I had to try harder to embrace the season we are in!
Kate’s kitchen stopped me in my tracks. It’s so unique and refreshing and has me wanting to include a lot more color and quirk in my home.
Julia’s fall table also caught my eye! I love the beautiful florals and how the dishes stick within the same pink palette.
Krystal’s styling and photography are always so inspiring. These photos truly feel like Fall.
I’m not a huge baker, or chef for that matter, but I would love to try these pumpkin snickerdoodle cookies!
Living in a smaller home, I always enjoy others’ tips and tricks for how they best utilize their space, especially in the kitchen.
And on the opposite end of the spectrum, penthouse inspiration.
It’s soup season!
This burgundy color is going to be popular this year I think!
