fall fun weekend

happy fall, friends!
this season is in full swing
& i am LOVING it!

i love all the changes new seasons bring.
i espcially love decorating our homestead for the holidays.
fall decorations are hands down my favorite.
the nuetral shades with pops of colors bring out the best in our home.
here are a few photos of the inside of our yellow house:
 

 
 
 
 
we kicked off the weekend with a fall partay!
[ bonfire - potluck - pals ]
a ridiculously awesome combo!

 
 
flannel forever with my one & only.
 
back porch sittin..
 
i love using old windows any chance i get.
chalk markers are the best for these surfaces!
 
 
& a fall party wouldn't be complete without a pumpkin beverage!

Melissa asked us to make custom bracelets for her bridesmaids.
what an honor. we loved being a little part in their special day.
 
 
 lemme just say- Clark's, you are my new favorite shoe co.

my sunday morning was spent making pumpkin bread
for our evening festivities:
[ pumpkin carving - life group - the walking dead premiere ]
..when i say twd, i mean listening to it as i pin things on pinterest..
 
 
this weeks weekly #shereadstruth verse:
"above all, love each other deeply,
because love covers over a
multitude of sins."
[1 peter 4:8]
 
 while that was baking, b & i soaked up some fall sun
and i sipped some hot apple cider
(with this delish cinnamon + sugar rim..please try it!)
 
 someone stole a log off the pile & was perfectly content..
 
 how the heck did i get so lucky? ;)

this might be the best camp meal i've ever had!
chili in the dutch oven & cornbread in the cast iron.
holy moly it was incredible. way to go, adam!
 
 
sunday afternoon we hiked STRAIGHT UP the mountain..
for what seemed like forever. i'd say this view was worth it!
 
 
yeah- it was a killer!
 
be cool- eat fajitas!
 
 
and this is called- we don't want to bring any food home breakfast! yikes.
 
 
the only rain of the weekend decided to come while we were packing up.
luckily it was humid enough, it evaporated quickly!
 
all packed up & ready to hit the road.
 
our drive home was super lovely!
 
Overall our weekend was mega fun!
Lots of laughter, sunshine, and campfires.
The way weekends should be spent, right.
 
Can't wait for our next adventure! :)
