What I'm reminiscing about? This is the time of year when the Farmer and I met in Montana at a cattle show (9 years ago!!) so I always reminisce about that in October!
Look at those babies!!! This was the day we met, I was SOO tan...back when I got a spray tan weekly..and got my nails done every two weeks...ohh those were the days!! hehe!
What I'm loving?
-Chobani Flips- yall these things are soo good...I haven't found one I haven't liked yet! Yum!
-Pecan Pumpkin Waffles Wallflower- This smells so great in my kitchen!! I just love fall scents and this one is for sure a winner!! :)
-The Farmer- hehe!! I was writing this post and I was having trouble thinking of things I was loving, so I asked The Farmer what was I loving lately? and he said "me!" ha! So true! It was a long couple of months with us being gone to Mississippi and him harvesting, so I am loving having him back!! :)
-Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte lotion- This smells so amazing, I have been using the body wash in this scent for a couple of years, so I finally picked up the coordinating body cream...I'm in love!! I also got the smaller version hand creme for my purse! It is everything fall!!
What I'm working on? A Christmas tree skirt!! We have been using a big piece of pink felt for the past seven years, so it's time I make a proper one!! I got this fabulous fabric...
..now I just need to find the perfect pattern and get it done!!
What I'm Dreading? Cleaning out my extra closet!! It is a disaster, but I am planning to make it my new vanity/makeup area, so it has got to be cleaned out!! How can you be soo excited about something and also completely dread it?!?!
What I'm excited about? Christmas, duh!!! It's only like 60 days away!!!
What I'm watching/reading? More old episodes of Designing Women, I just got season two!! Obsessed!!
Also, American Housewife, Real Housewives of Atlanta, and This Is Us (really loving this one!)!!

What I'm Wearing?
-Really loving the new sweatshirt I made with my monogram! Super cute paired with this orangey/fallish blanket scarf!
-I picked up this teal cardigan at Old Navy too! Love it paired with this colorful necklace!
-It was a blanket scarf kind of month! This red/greenish one looks so cute with a navy stripe tee and camel cardigan!
And just to keep it real....when you are trying to take outfit selfies and The Farmer has to brush his teeth and McCoy has to open and close the door a million times!! Now you know why I am so excited about my closet vanity!! :)
What I'm Doing this weekend? lots of Trick or Treating with my Knight and Dragon!!
What I'm looking forward to next month? We are going to Disney on Ice!! Soo excited! Merritt asks daily when we are going to see Mickey ice skate! Can't wait!
What else is new? Not much new around here...we did just get a new bed!! I'm soo excited about it..we went and tried them out today and picked the most comfortable mattress ever, in king size! We currently have a queen size, so it is going to be fantastic to have more room..the boys are going to love it!! hehe!!
The Farmer buying cattle on the phone while picking out mattresses...multitasking at it's best ;)
Question of the Month: What is your favorite Halloween memory/picture/tradition?
I loved carving pumpkins! It was very traditional when we were growing up..triangles and toothless grins..and it was perfect!! In fact it had been so long since I carved a pumpkin, when we did it with the boys this past weekend, the smell brought me right back to my childhood halloween memories!! I also loved to go trick or treating at my Uncle Den's! He always had something rigged up to scare us and he always gave us the BEST candy!!
