Halloween Day 2016

Halloween was so much fun this year!! I know it is only going to keep getting better, but it's definitely not easy either.  The task of getting costumes, making sure the kids like the costumes, and then the fight of getting them to wear the entire costume can really be exhausting.  In the end, it's always worth it, but the battle is real. 

We started the morning off decorating my trunk for the trunk-or-treat function at the kids school.  This was the first year they have done it and it was really fun.  I may have almost cried when I realized that I didn't dress Brody in his costume when EVERY.OTHER.KID.DID.  It was a total Mom fail; but in my defense, Madelyn's classroom was not dressing up because they are the youngest and so in my head I thought the whole school wasn't dressing up.  I'm such an idiot.  The entire rest of the school DID dress up.  But thank goodness, he literally didn't say a word and didn't even notice!  He acted cool as can be and didn't even come up to me asking where his Buzz Lightyear costume was !! I still felt horrible though. 





That evening, we headed over to my brother and SIL's house to do some trick-or-treating.  The kids looked adorable in their costumes and they were happy to go collect candy!  We put the boys in the wagon and Madelyn in the stroller and off we went.

Our Fall Home Decor

I started putting our Fall decor out at the end of September this year and it started making me smile immediately. I love seeing all the pretty Fall colors throughout the house and my favorite thing of all is burning our Nest Pumpkin candle.  

Although it is still quite hot here, we are getting a little cooler weather in the mornings with a nice breeze.  I can start to feel Fall in the air.  I changed up the decor in our entryway a little bit this year; but otherwise, the rest of the decor is pretty close to the same as years past.  I hope you enjoy :)

Scenes from Our Weekend | Memorial Day

We spent the holiday weekend in Destin and had no plans but to just enjoy the beach and the pool with the kids.  We stayed with my Aunt and Uncle for the weekend who live just a few foot steps from the beach and we had a blast.  They were certainly kind to let us move in for the long weekend as we don't travel light these days and when we're there, it's like a cyclone has gone through the house  just about every hour!!  







We made it home on Monday in time to see Matt's family back in Pensacola.  We had fun afternoon at the pool with our cousins!  




A good 3 day weekend is what life is all about :)
