Happy Halloween!

Although I'm not really into the whole dressing up thing, I did make a {small} effort today for our work potluck by channeling my inner Gossip Girl and sporting a bow headband. I wish I would have pulled out all the stops with the rest of my outfit, but my fear of being too cold got the best of me and I played it safe with jeans & a tee.

We don't have any plans for Halloween, so we'll probably just go out to dinner & come home to watch a movie. We will light our pumpkins we carved last weekend (see picture below) and pass out candy to any little trick-or-treaters that knock on our door. Hope everyone has a fun & safe Halloween!

Wednesday Wish List

Last week was a mess, so this week I am bringing three Wish List items. They happen to be from the same Etsy shop {TuttiStudio} and I'm just loving the simplicity of all of them!

{OMG Shoes}

{Pug}

{Home Cook'n}

The first one is an ode to my love of shoes, the second to my darling puppy, Buster, and the third for my love of my KitchenAid mixer. Love them all! At $25 a piece, each would make an impact in your home!

Weekend Recap

• After last weekend, this weekend was a party!
• I headed over the pass on Friday to spend a few days with my mom.
• First on the agenda was some retail therapy.
• Bend doesn't have a "real" mall, but they shopping is pretty decent (compared to Salem, at least) .
• Then I headed to Redmond to see Michelle & Levi.
• We played, ate, and watched Grey's Anatomy & Private Practice.
• Saturday was the main reason for the trip.
• My mom is the board president for the Women's Resource Center of Central Oregon (WRCCO) and they held their first Fall Femm Festival as a fundraiser.
• Basically it was a pampering day for the women of the community.
• Very fun!
• Following her fundraiser, my mom had a going away party for a friend to attend (she's so popular!) .
• This is where I learned to play Bunko for the first time.
• And my wrist got really good at rolling the dice :)
• I headed back home on Sunday and, as hoped, it was uneventful.
• Being greated at the door by an eager husband & puppies who have missed you for the last 2 days = a great feeling!
