Hi friends! It's been pretty quiet over here as of lately. As much as I enjoy the internet, sometimes I find myself overwhelmed by the constant noise of it all, and I never want to feel (or make you feel) that way here. Popping in today to share my five fall favorites right now.
1. Halloween
I've never been a huge Halloween person, but this is the first year Everette is excited about it, and I can't wait to take her trick of treating in her little costume. I'm also soaking up that this is the last year that I'll be able to choose what to dress her up as.
2. Baby Cousin
The news is finally out and Everette is getting a baby cousin come Spring. We could not be more thrilled. She is already so excited, and we can't wait to become an aunt and uncle as well!
3. Soup season
This is the perfect time of year for those yummy crock pot meals and soups. I always make taco soup on Halloween, and invite all the grandparents to come over and see our little one's costume. If you are looking for a yummy recipe, I follow Paula Deen's.
4. Christmas is on the way
I always feel like Halloween kicks off the holiday season, and I love to decorate early to enjoy it all a little bit longer. I am getting close to having our shopping wrapped up! I won't tell you when I started listening to Christmas music in my car...
5. Movies
I love a good movie. I love to rent movies at home, and I really love to go to the movies. November is usually when a lot of great movies hit the theaters, and I am overly excited to see the Mr. Rogers movie coming next month. I don't know if it's the early childhood educator in me, or the mommy in me, but I haven't been this excited for a movie in a long time. Also, Tom Hanks. Anyone else?
Happy Halloween friends!
