Holiday Card
Right now I am loving everything Chalkboard! I honestly can't get enough of it... we even did our holiday cards with a chalkboard graphic.
Here is our family pic on the front of the card
And the front and back side by side

I also purchased some fun labels and stamps ( I always forget about the stamps!)
Now I just can't wait to get these all addressed and mailed out! Woot Woot for being on top of it this year!

Family Photos are DONE!
Yay! So we got our family photos done over a month ago and the photographer just let out her copies of the photos for us to share with our family and friends (we weren't allowed to purchase the digital files of the photos =( so that was a bit of a bummer) Ours haven't come in the mail yet so I can't wait to see them all crisp and up close. I am holding one of the shots back since it is going to be our holiday card this year but we did order those too and they should be here pretty soon!
I should note that even though I intended to go for more of a fun theme this year, I procrastinated a little too much and so we went with simple and "safe." Someday though I will have those awesome, fun family pics =)

Halloween and Family Time
Well hey there! My goodness, life has been a little hectic and a little boring (if that's possible??) Jax and Izzy have been growing and changing so much! Isabel has officially said her first word "dada" and she is eating mostly solid foods now, just breastfeeding before naps/bedtime. She can roll EVERYWHERE and she is ALMOST crawling. She smiles more and more everyday and she has everone wrapped around her finger =). I am constantly amazed at the things Jax picks up... So tonight after tripping over his little stool in the kitchen for the third time (and after a very long and tiring day and night of nursing 2 sick kiddos) I flipped... I kicked the stool and turned on the mean mommy voice "this thing can't be in here anymore!" Well Jax just happened to be sitting at the kitchen counter and informed me straight away that I wasn't "being very nice" and he was "very dissapointed in me." Then he brought his stool back into the kitchen and placed it under the sink and said "mommy next time just say Jackson please move this and I will come and move it for you." Needless to say I felt pretty bad about the whole thing and appologized for my outburst and he got to walk away feeling pretty good about himself LOL. The kids have their first colds of the season and lemme tell ya, this momma's tired!
We had an awesome time at the pumpkin patch this last weeked and we came home with some pretty nice pumpkins (which still need to be carved.) I started decorating the front porch for Halloween and its looking pretty cute! I got some bats and gravestones from Michaels and I already did a crafty pom pom pumkin that I saw on pinterest. I am still planning on doing a glitter pumpkin and then carving the other two.
We haven't been able to get much work done on the house but I did order some more cute pillowcases on Etsy and some cute target canisters and I LOVE them! I am trying to bring more fun colors into the house... I am usually a beige, brown, blue girl.
Here are some pics from Pumpkin patchin...
And... her shoes didn't exactly fit...

Modern Farmhouse
I have been slowly evolving from my old style of darker more formal living spaces to lighter, brighter spaces with pops of color. I think I have finally figured out what style best describes what I am in love with right now and it is called "modern farmhouse" it's like cottage meets industrial. I have seen so many of these gorgeous spaces and I can't get enough! Here are some pics from Houzz that I am loving =) enjoy!
What do you think??

Playroom Sneak Peak and Update
Hey There! Well, I started the playroom project but it has temporarily been stalled until??? I think I have just been a little overwhelmed lately. Jax is getting more rambunctious and Isabel is starting to sleep less during the days and needing more and more of me, which I love but it has definetly changed my days.
We are also still trying to get our downstairs half bath finished , which really wont take much more, it just needs to be installed...
On another note, last weekend I went to Denver to help my sister move into her new place and it is GORGEOUS! Sometimes I wish we lived in a community that had all of those amenities: club house, swimming pool, tennis courts, trails! Anywho... she is doing really good and the move went pretty fast. I also got to spend some time with my adorable nephew who whooped my but in battleship.
Yesterday we went on a gorgeous drive up to glade park and hung out with some of our cousins and they made campfire peach cobbler! AMAZING! There were deer everywhere up there and I got a few pictures of a doe that walked right up to the campsite, I think she was waiting on come corn husks...
Anyways, I know these pics are already on instagram but what's a posting withought pics!

House Tour - Isabel's Room
Here are a few shots of baby girl's room. It's still a work in progress. I really want to paint the walls a light grey and add some board and batten (gotta love the 10 million projects at a time thing.) Maybe someday all of these things will get done! =)
After we added the glider I just wasn't sure about the furniture placement but I like being able to look out the window when I rock her...I don't know what to do here? The room is TINY so my options are limited...
Have a safe weekend!
