fall is upon us.

via

Don't you just love the way that sounds? Life starts over? I will be honest, fall isn't my favorite season, sure I love the cooler weather, but that only means that winter is coming and winter is not my favorite at all. I like to be warm, always. But I have decided to embrace the fall weather heading our way and this quote just says it all. A new season this year, a new season in life. 

Last night I realized that I was lacking the sense of adventure this year, that I might have had in years past. I have had a pretty great year don't get me wrong, but I want to do something that scares me. I want to inspire others and inspire myself to be better each day. I used to keep a "bucket list" of the things I wanted to do, and maybe that was what pushed me, but in the everyday hustle and bustle I have found it harder and harder to be led towards my dreams. I have decided to post that list here. Maybe going back to it will help me find my passion in life. I think it is so easy to get into the mind set that this is it. I don't ever want that mindset, I want to be pushed in life, I want to figure out my dreams and follow them, I want to inspire others to follow theirs.

They're back....

Must-Have Monday's are back today with a vengeance, and once again I am using my favorite shopping site WANELO to share it all with you!

How super cute is this sweatshirt?? Perfect for lazy Sundays and errand running!

These boots are to die for! A wedge, suede, and great color! Yes PLEASE!

I love a good chunky knit, and this one looks so cozy! Perfect over tights and jean shorts!

These sparkle shoes are being ordered as we speak, I can't wait to wear them with tights and a cozy sweater!

I love this geometric pattern, perfect triangles to give a little something extra to all outfits!

So there you have it, my MONDAY MUST-HAVES! 

If you haven't already, follow me on WANELO, I love shopping with new friends!!

Dear Friday...

I am glad you are here, Friday.

 I am ready for a weekend of corn mazes, weddings, friends and family.

Dear Fellow Bloggers,

I want to be cool and do outfit posts too. I love clothes and mixing it up, but I have got to get this picture thing down pat, until then enjoy my pictures in this mirror.

Dear SaraMontanas customers,

You really rock!! Thanks for all your support lately! BTW, I am trying to get more and more up for Christmas! Need a cute small gift? Give a make-up bag!!

Dear Yummy Crockpot Wednesday,

You make my tummy really happy, and I am pretty happy I don't have to cook when we get back from AWANA; giving me more time to laugh like a hyena while we watch Modern Family.

Dear Sweet Andy,

Thanks for taking me to the fair last night. I am so glad to have crossed another first together off the list! Thanks for not making fun of me while I laugh uncontrollably and try to keep myself from throwing up.

High Five for Friday

HighFives...

I am giving HIGH FIVES for the following:

organized fabric, thank goodness I found this ugly shelf, it doesn't even matter how ugly it is, as long as it keeps my guest room fabric clutter free

we started the tradition of crockpot Wednesday this week, so excited its finally cool enough to make some soups and stews. This works out great so that food will be ready the minute we walk in from AWANA.

I stole this quote from someone off Pinterest, and absolutely love it.

I have on my happy shoes today, determined to have a wonderful Friday

This will be me tomorrow night, surrounded by best friends, watching Chipper play one of his last regular season games, and I couldn't be more excited!! 

FALLing all over again...

What a beautiful day! It is finally starting to feel like Fall around these parts and I can honestly say I am on the fence about the cooler weather. Mainly because I LOVE the summer, it is seriously my favorite time of year, and I am sad to see that it might be leaving us soon.

However, I am embracing this cooler weather and sharing all my fall fashion must-haves today.

A friend recently introduced me to Wanelo.
