Scenes From A Fall Weekend

 Sigh. What a fabulous weekend. While I always love the fall season every year, this year, it has new meaning for our family. After a long, crazy summer, this fall season has been a time to hit refresh for us. The crisp weather, the upcoming holiday season... it all seems like a new start for us. Needless to say, I have enjoyed every single moment of this fall and settling into our new house and new town!

This weekend, we had some very "fall" moments... lots of pumpkin! HDawg rocked a pumpkin hat to school, I baked a pumpkin + chocolate chip bread for a cookout with friends and we painted pumpkins with H to prep for this week's Halloween festivities!




On Saturday, David, H and I went to a fall festival in our new neighborhood. We had a really great time, but it didn't help that HDawg was ready for a nap. We tried to get him to enjoy his first pony ride and, well, he wasn't really having it. David snapped this hilarious shot of H practically falling asleep on the pony!


We totally enjoyed the cooler weather and even lit our first (fake) fire of the season! I'm not gonna lie, gas logs aren't as fun as real logs, but it's super cool to be able to flip a switch and turn this fire on at our new place!


I also finished up my projects for the Home Depot Holiday Style Blogger Challenge! I can't wait to share with you guys. It was slightly chaos in my living room... combining the current Halloween/fall decor I have up with a ton of fun Christmas decor = holiday madness! : ) While I originally thought I'd keep the Christmas decor up through the end of the year, I decided yesterday morning that it had to come down until after Thanksgiving. Like I said, we're enjoying our fall and will wait and look forward to Christmas when it comes that time!

So there you have it, our fun fall weekend. What were you up to this weekend!?

Psst! Don't forget to send me your Tuesdays at Ten June projects for tomorrow!
