Pics from the Past...

I feel like I should do a post since I skipped yesterday... Sorry about that!!! All of the presents are under the tree... It's making me slightly chipper. So yeah... For once I am not really in the mood to edit photos so I am going to go back in time and share some pics from the past!!



This is me with my infamous "bed-head". Some days I wake up and my hair is in big, slightly damp curls... This does not always happen, but if I'm lucky, it does!
I love this picture because of the eyes... I made them this really pretty icy blue... You can't see them very well, but oh well!!!







These are pretty orange flowers, aren't they?? I love this picture!! The orange is so vibrant!!













Did you enjoy the ride?? Promise I'll post soon!!
Much Love ♥

THREE Christmas Tree Stories Wrapped Up In One!!

I apologize for the long title... Let's just say that it was shorter in my head!! *sigh* oh well!! Here are the stories I promised....

Last night was the official "Decorate the Tree" night at my house. We set up our new, artificial tree. We decorated it and it looks GORGEOUS!!! Doesn't it?? I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! ♥
Since we got a new tree, we put our old tree out on our back deck. This was right after we set it up... Pretty right?? Well last night was really windy, so this is what it looks like now...Yes, my dad did tether it down with an obvious white rope. And yes, the base is under a pile of rocks larger than the average person's head... Ahaha I love my family!!


The second story had to do with my dad's side of the fam... My grandparents were contemplating getting an artificial tree, so we surprised them with one!! They live an hour and half away so we drove out and set it up. My grandpa was home, but when my grandma walked in she was laughing. Here is their tree...

Those are my tree stories... Do you have any interesting stories?? Comment below and tell me... I'm all ears!!

Much Love ♥

O! MY! GAWSH! I'm not a big tea person, but this stuff is AMAZING!!! It's green tea, but it tastes like a candy cane was melted into it!!

November...

November. So cold. The leaves have pretty much all fallen off. For some strange reason they were all yellow this year... Not a lot of red or orange. It was still very pretty!! I would put pictures up, but at this point I do not have a nice camera to take the picture. We are selling mine. I'm getting a new one though, so more pictures possibly!!! Scratch that!! Definitely!!

I love fall!! It is probably my favorite time of the year. It's cold outside, but no to the point where you need gloves and a hat. I giggle when I see two friends walk into school... One is wearing a t-shirt and jeans with flip-flops... The other is wearing Ugg boots and jeans with a fleece jacket. I on the other hand, prefer ballet flats in the fall... My mom bought me 4 pairs so far this fall... I think. Man, do I love my mommy... ♥

So basically, the moral of this post is that I love fall. I love November. What do you love about fall?

Much Love ♥
