Favorite Things November Edition

I can't believe that November is almost over and there's only 25 days until Christmas!!! I wish I could say that I had all my Christmas shopping done, but that's a big fat NEGATIVE! Oh well, I've still got plenty of time right?

The last day of November, means it's time for Favorite Things with Ashley.

#1. The Navajo Sweater from Kiki La'Rue


I think I actually got this sweater the last of October, but since it was too warm to wear it, I'm counting it as a November favorite! Unfortunately, this sweater is sold out, but there are MANY other cute things available at Kiki La'Rue. Check out the Oh My Stars Poncho that's one of the number one things on my wish list!

#2. Thanksgiving!!! 
I made my very first turkey this Thanksgiving. Since it was just going to be four of us, I just made a small turkey breast. Not to toot my own horn, but it turned out DELISH!!! I was a very proud little turkey! Our turkey day was full of pumpkin bread with cream cheese frosting for breakfast (I made that too), turkey, stuffing, hot rolls, mashed potatoes, etc for lunch, some good wine, being in our comfy clothes by 3 PM and playing cards all afternoon.

#3. Christmas Movies
This canvas looks perfect by the Christmas tree! 

#4. Black Friday Shopping

I didn't do the traditional midnight or 5 A.M. Black Friday shopping, but I did get some sweet deals! The sad thing is (well not really sad for me, but sad for my Christmas shopping) that I only got things for myself.
#5. The Starbucks Rewards App

5 more stars until Gold!!! Woohoo!!! Starbucks sure knows how to pull people in. Not like I didn't love going to Starbucks before, but now it's so much fun to see that new little star drop into the cup!

Happy Almost December!!! Bring on more Christmas movies, Christmas lights, Christmas cards, etc... Christmas, Christmas, Christmas!!!

Fabulous Fall

I don't know about y'all, but I absolutely LOVE Fall! Pumpkin, hoodies, boots, Starbucks seasonal drinks, chili, etc... 



It is still fairly warm here during the day, but the nights have totally seemed like fall. Every night, I want to light a fire in our fireplace. I am a sucker for fall decorations and almost couldn't wait for my mom to get here September 4 to get the decorations out. But... I thought it would be a fun thing for us to do together, so I reluctantly waited. The decorations have been up for almost two weeks now and as excited as I always am for Christmas decorations, I will be sad when it's time to pack up the Fall decor. 






When I got the new Fall Scentsy catalog and saw the owl warmer, I was in LOVE! But, seeing as I already have three full-size warmers and a wall plug-in, Jeremy was less than thrilled about the thought of spending $35 on ANOTHER warmer. We were at Wal-Mart and I found the owl warmer shown in the last picture for $15! And I even think it's cuter than the Scentsy warmer! Score!!! I'm warming Yankee Cranberry Zest now and it smells AMAZING!!! 

Only a few more days until it is officially Fall!!!
