Sparkle + Fall = Perfect Centerpiece

Who doesn't need a little sparkle in their life!

Check out how to make these pretty (and easy!) pumpkins here.

Rejuvenate the Workout

One of the reasons I love FALL is the crisp running weather. Here in Orlando, there were a few mornings last week where you could see FALL creeping in slowing but surely. It got me really excited about my morning running routine. I REALLY try to get up before Barrett leaves for work and run while he is still here to watch Carter. Sometimes that works out and sometimes it doesn't. If not, Carter and I grab the stroller and head out after her breakfast. Since this is my only form of exercise (I'm not too big on classes), I think it is best done alone but sometimes it's hard to get motivated when it is still dark outside in the early morning. Anyways, I love running with that little bit of chill in the air! So, it got me thinking..."I need some new running clothes".

My favorite exercise apparel is lululemon - they fit and look great! However, they take a big chunk out of the budget. Maybe one pair of pants and a jacket would be nice...

LuluLemon Groove Pant

LuluLemon Astro Pant

I own these pants - and LOVE them! They are more my "errand" pants than workout pants.

LuluLemon Still Pant

I've heard these headbands are the best. I'll tell you if they truly are "slipless".

Ella's Fall Festival

Ella's Second Birthday Party was a few weekends ago (yes, i'm a little behind) and it was a fall festival theme. Ny and Chris did a fabulous job with the party. I think everyone left with a great welcome to Fall. The craft table was a big hit for the kids and parents.

Carter's favorite was the yummy cupcakes!

Carter's bestie Gracyn - isn't she too cute?

My First Little Bit of Fall...

Since B decided to play golf after work yesterday, Carter and I went to the Annabelle Hart Holiday Open House in College Park. I love seeing their decorated trees every year. My favorite this year is the gold and white...it is beautiful! If you live in Orlando, you must stop by their store. They have unique ornaments and Christmas decorations. They also have an unbelievable amount of breakable items...so Carter and I did not stay long. However, we did roam on down to Beth Nolen Interiors (3 stores down AH). This is where I purchased my "first little bit of fall". This is my favorite store in College Park. They have the cutest baby and kids area...be it not very big but very pretty! Their hair bows are the best! It also houses the insanely delicious Cookie Cousins. Their cookies are as tasty as they are pretty!

Anyways, I love this door decor because before Halloween it will hang as shown in the above picture.

But as of November 1st, it will be this...

I'm in love with the polka dots!

Fall theme T-shirts

Since it is getting into Fall, I need to order my daughter some t-shirts. Any one (or two, three, four) would do!!

Let me know which one is your favorite!
