This & That

It might have been dusk into dark but we finally made it out to the pumpkin patch to grab a few pumpkins for the porch.  I didn't mind the quick/dark stop though because we plan to head back right near Halloween with the baby.

The farm is right by my parents house so we went over for dinner afterwards - I've been wanting to do dinner on their deck forever and even though we were all running behind and lost the light, we came back to find my mom making it work with a cute fall setup - table cloth, candles, lanterns and I got my dinner on the deck!


Once we got the pumpkins we finished up our porch display for now - next year I'm going to have to switch a little bit from just fall to Halloween too.



I've been flipping where fall decorations are throughout the house and I think we're finally good to go. I was trying to incorporate anything that made the move with us so it didn't go to waste.  In other housework, the baby's closet is sitting, waiting and ready to go - I know most people say to utilize the dresser for clothes because it's easier and you won't want to be hanging laundry but we are so much more "closet" people - in our own room too.  I like to see what the options are.



It's finally down into the upper 60's/lower 70's and I was able to throw in a few fall like outfits recently - mostly it's just a rotation of about five dresses and flip flops, ha!  Also, we went out for one last nice dinner recently and I was so thankful to have bought one long sleeve maternity dress - even though I haven't gotten much use out of it - at least I had something to wear that night!



My new favorite obsession - avocado toast!  I had it at my girlfriend's house and it's so easy/fun to make at home - it might possibly have been our first time using our toaster.  Seasoned and mashed avocado along with two of my other favorites... red onion and feta.

  7. Hooray for making it to the pumpkin patch, and all of your fall decor looks so pretty! I'm right there with you for being more of closet people, so we hung up quite a bit too, but tried to stick onesies in the dresser.
