It's official

I am going to be sicky on Christmas :( Miss Autumn got me sick as well as my brother. It's a strong case of a head cold. So I've been hitting the hot tea pretty hard and some cold medicine hoping to not feel like total death. Since tomorrow I have a full day of cleaning, baking, grocery shopping and getting my hair did. This red is fading pretty fast. So it will be nice to have some pampering down time. Although all I want right now is to curl into my big blankets and sleep for like two days. On another note I did some thrifting today hoping to find something my brother sent me out to find. I ended up finding stuff for myself. My day in pictures.


I love love my new dress thanks to modcloth.




I went on a photo taking adventure. I used to spend many summer nights at this vary drive in

Thrift finds.










Now I must get back to more Christmas present wrapping to do. And try to get as much sleep as I can.

Thrift finds

The other day I went on a morning adventure since I know the best time to thrift is early in the morning So little miss autumn and myself went to a local thrift store after getting my much needed coffee in me. And my oh my did I score some goodies I'm so excited I had to share.


I couldn't find my moms candle sticks so I went on a mission to find some new ones that I would keep.


I love these glasses. They reminded of these glasses my grandma had I loved those glasses. So I was so happy to have found these.


She likes to look at herself in mirrors.



Now these were my favorite find. I have been searching for these little guys for the longest time. When I saw them I grabbed them as fast as I could so nobody else could snatch them.



I guess it was just one of those days that I found all those little things I've been on the haunt for and they all came together in one place for me to buy.







Finally my lovely vintage ornaments :) They will look lovely on my pink tree.

Today I also got my moms christmas gift I got her some little cute things, But the one thing she has wanted the most was a kitchenaide mixer. I will so be borrowing and playing with it,until I have my very own pretty pink one someday :)
Getting that mixer though was a tough one. I remember telling myself last year I would NOT do the mall and strictly do online shopping. Because the mall is just DISGUSTING it took me 30mins to get to a parking spot and it was all stop and go. But I had pushed back getting the mixer cause I wasn't all to sure on it but I know how much she wants one. I can't wait to see her face.


I hope everyone had a lovely Saturday. I am pooped out today I even took a nap earlier tonight and am still tired. I think I'll watch closer it's on tv, I forgot all about this movie it's been a while it feels like I haven't seen it I must not of been paying any attention Man on man is jude law dreamy or what.







I will most likely pass out during it, I do that a lot. I have a big day of flea markets and thrift stores tomorrow. I need my beauty sleep.

Goodnight xoxo

why hello



And for the past two years I have dreaded this Month even though it used to be my absolute favorite. Come to my surprise it has been good to me. I believe one of my favorite quotes sums up how I am feeling about my life right now.

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
— Marilyn Monroe

Today I got my location for my birthday party booked, and the invites sent out I am actually ahead of my schedule. My challenge I believe is going to be The dress. Now to some thifting goodies I found some cute things today, nothing to do with my party But I couldn't pass them up.

My baby nikon is still out being fixed so for now I've being using the insagram app on my iphone.







I have big plans for this little guy. I want to take out the mirror and put in a mini chalk board. So I can write little notes and put mail or what not in it.


Id love to put little name tags in them. No idea what they would say but something should be in there.





The little mug is so cute. It was just screaming at me "buy me buy me" So I did and made hot coco watched home alone to celebrate. It was such a lovely evening hope you all had a lovely one as well. I am back to making practice name place cards and watching wonder years oh good television.
