Friday Favorites Fall Edition

Before I jump into my Friday Favorites I have to give a shout out to my amazing husband and say Happy Anniversary! 5 Years ago today I married my best friend and we started this crazy adventure together. Things are so different from where we were 5 years ago but they have exceeded my every dream. Here is to 50 more together. Like Red on a Rose.  Ok so it's Labor day weekend and in my book that means Fall. I decorate for Fall Labor day weekend or September 1st and they both just happen to fall on the same weekend! Here are a few of my Favorites this week! I'm Linking up with Andrea today! These Halloween Plates from Pottery Barn Kids are so awesome. Grayson is in a huge owl faze so I'm going to get the cat & owl set. I'm so excited to start all the fun traditions with him since he gets a little more this year! Fall to me also means back to school and since Grayson is moving up to Toddler 1 (hold me) next week I decided that it was time

Somethings on Friday

It's Friday and I have never been more excited for the weekend. Bullet points seem to be the way I post now so here is goes. 1- We leave for our anniversary trip tomorrow!!! I cannot wait for 3 nights away with just my husband away from the house! We have big plans to sleep in and have no schedule. Since we all know with kids it's all about the schedule. 2- I'm so super thankful that my parents are taking G while we are gone. I will miss that nugget love like crazy but I know he is in good hands and being spoiled. 3- I got my first order of fall candles from Bath and Body works yesterday and cannot wait to start burning them. Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin has been my jam now for years and I tried a new one for me the Warm Carmel Cider!  They are on sale right now 2/$22 so get ya some plus!!!! $1 shipping with a $25 order so throw in a hand soap and get awesome shipping. 4- My baby boy is moving up a room at daycare!!! Again!!! September 3 he will be starting in Toddl

Where it's at

I have been sick for a week now and finally threw in the towel yesterday and went to the doctor's and got put on a z-pack. I'm still not a 100% but I'm getting there. Grayson has had a head cold for a week but no fever and just a runny nose so I'm hoping it passes on it's own. The last time I blogged I was getting Libby for an overnight and it was wonderful. She is such a good girl and helped me out so much. We ended up have my family and a few friends over for a cook out that night and it was a blast. We played bags and can jam and flip up. Plus we stuffed our face with delicious food. We leave for Cleveland on Saturday and I could not be more excited for some one on one time with my hubby. It's a quick trip two nights and then back home but it is what we need. We realized the other day that there are some nights that after I get home from work we are so on the go that we only get about 20 mins of solid one on one time so a whole 3 days will be wonder

The bridal shower

This shower was crazy to plan (6 people involved not including the bride!!!). I have OCD when it comes to parties and I want it to look amazing. I tried to take a back seat but lasted the first week and then when nothing was getting done I just jumped in with both feet.  So here are the pictures that the bride's future sister-in-law took for us! These are the favors that we gave out the vase is an oldie but a goodie I had laying around from the Christmas Tree Store.  I bought the bottles at a local liquor store and had the labels made by a wonderful Etsy shop ZoeDeZigns I e-mailed her with a vision and they turned out perfect and so east to put on!  The centerpieces were a labor of love. I bought cheap mason jars from Dollar General I think I got 12 for about $10.00. I picked up antique white matte spray paint from home depot and hammered silver spray paint. I wanted a more antique feel than just regular silver. I spray painted 8 silver and 4 white and the painted
