And that is especially true when it comes to Reese’s Pumpkins. 🎃🥜🍫

Seriously, WHY do the Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins taste so much better than regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups?! There’s just something about that perfect chocolate-to-peanut-butter ratio that gets me every single Halloween. 😂

They are hands down my favorite Halloween candy, and honestly, I could probably eat my weight in them.

So if you offer me one Reese’s Pumpkin this spooky season, just save us both some time and hand me two. 😉🤣

Now I need to know: what’s the BEST Halloween candy of all time?! 👇🏼
I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearl I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearly Natural on @amazon 🙌🏻 Usually, I keep my olive trees in these baskets on each side of our bed until Christmas, when I swap them out for Christmas trees. But now I officially have trees for FALL too… and I’m obsessed. 😂🍁

They add the prettiest deep, rich fall colors to our bedroom and instantly make the whole space feel warmer and cozier. There’s just something about bringing those autumn tones into your bedroom that makes it feel like the ultimate cozy retreat!

But cat scratching pads?! Those are her absolute FAVORITE. She’s just about worn her old one out, so when I spotted this adorable Halloween cat scratching pad at Target, obviously I had to bring it home for her. 🎃

After a few very thorough sniffs, an inspection, and some test scratches… we officially have Riley’s approval! 👏🏻😹

Honestly, I’m just glad I managed to buy something that passed her incredibly strict quality-control standards. 😂

Which is exactly why this pumpkin butter cake is one of my FAVORITE fall desserts. It’s fully baked, but the middle stays unbelievably soft, rich, and ooey gooey. 🙌🏻

You get a buttery yellow cake base topped with a creamy pumpkin layer that basically melts in your mouth. And add a big dollop of whipped cream on top?! CHEF’S KISS. 🤌🏻🎃

Thankfully, Charlie is cute enough to get away with it… and clearly VERY unbothered by the fact that she completely ruined my outfit. 😹

10 YEARS. 🤍😭 Today is our 10 year wedding anniver 10 YEARS. 🤍😭

Today is our 10 year wedding anniversary, and I truly cannot believe an entire decade has already gone by. Somehow, it feels like we were just saying “I do,” and at the same time, I can’t imagine a version of my life without you in it.

Logan, you are my rock, my safe space, my biggest supporter, my constant encourager, and most importantly, my best friend. 🤍

This past year has probably been one of the hardest years we’ve walked through together. Between everything going on with my health, the uncertainty surrounding my job and my future, and all the unknowns we’ve had to navigate, life has looked a lot different than I ever imagined it would.

But through every hard day, every appointment, every disappointment, every fear, and every unknown, you have been right there beside me. You’ve supported me, encouraged me, taken care of me, made me laugh when I needed it most, and reminded me over and over again that I never have to go through any of it alone.

And I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully put into words how much that means to me.

I’m so incredibly blessed that God gave me you. 🥹🤍 I would choose you over and over again in every lifetime.

Happy 10 year anniversary, Logan!! I love you more than you’ll ever know. Here’s to the next 10 years, and every single year after that. 🥂🤍

A whole decade down, forever to go. ♾️

And the best part? I had JUST cleaned the kitchen floors. Of course I did. 🙃 But at least this runner is vinyl so it’s easy to clean too thankfully! 

Nothing humbles you quite like standing in your freshly cleaned kitchen, staring at the lunch you were so excited to eat… on the floor. 😂

Just one of those real-life moments where you have to laugh so you don’t cry and keep rolling with life’s punches.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who has days where one tiny inconvenience feels like the absolute LAST STRAW?! 😩👇🏻

Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle from @antiquecandleco_ I shared last month?! Well… I’m sad to report that I’ve already burned through the entire thing 🤣 It smelled THAT good!

But honestly, one of my favorite things about this fall candle is that the beautiful amber glass pumpkin jar can be repurposed once the candle is gone. After giving mine a good clean, I turned it into the cutest little Halloween candy jar! 🍬🎃

So basically, it’s a 2-for-1: you get an amazing smelling fall candle AND an adorable reusable pumpkin jar for your fall and Halloween decor. 🙌🏻

I love finding ways to reuse seasonal decor instead of putting it away or tossing it—and this amber pumpkin looks so cute filled with Halloween candy!

And can we talk about these new fall eucalyptus trees from @nearlynaturalfloral?! 😍 I feel like they completely pulled the whole fall bedroom look together. The deep, moody colors are perfect for creating that warm and cozy autumn vibe I love.

I swear I sleep better when my bedroom is decorated for the season too. 😂 Anyone else?!

When my hubby first got this rotating watch displa When my hubby first got this rotating watch display case, I’m not gonna lie… I thought he was being a little ridiculous and extra 😂 Like, do the watches really need their own light-up display?!

Turns out… yes. Yes, they do. 🤣

Now I totally get the hype! I love the blue LED light in the background, the slow rotating display, and how it keeps his watch collection organized instead of having watches scattered all over the place. It honestly looks SO cool sitting out too!

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for a husband, boyfriend, dad, or any watch lover in your life, I feel like this would be such a good gift idea. 👏🏻⌚️ Especially for the guy who already seems to have everything!

Apparently I’m enabling the watch obsession now instead of questioning it. 😂

Would the watch-obsessed man in your life love this too?! 👇🏻

Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to look just like my Charlie?! 😹 Well apparently, I forgot to get Riley’s approval first.

Little Miss Riley discovered the finished DIY cat statue proudly displayed on the porch, and her reaction absolutely sent me. 💀 

At first, I’m pretty sure she thought we had brought home a FOURTH cat without consulting her. She kept staring at it from a safe distance like, “Ummm… excuse me?! Who is THAT?!” 👀🐈

Eventually, she worked up enough courage to jump up there and confront the mysterious imposter cat herself… only to realize it was FAKE. 🤣

And then, of course, she immediately had to play it cool like she totally knew that the entire time. 😹

Nothing humbles a cat faster than realizing she just tried to intimidate a painted statue. 😂

Cat moms, please tell me I’m not the only one whose cats get suspicious over literally ANY new piece of decor?!

I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf ball pumpkins, and I think I just found the perfect fall decor for a golfer’s man cave!

I used my Cricut to cut out some of my hubby’s favorite golf brand logos, then applied them to the pumpkins with transfer tape. That’s literally it! Such an easy Cricut fall craft, but they turned out SO cute.

You could definitely hand-paint the logos if you don’t have a Cricut…but y’all know me and my shaky hands. 😂 Painting tiny golf logos was absolutely NOT happening, so my Cricut saved the day!

Now these golf-themed pumpkins are officially my favorite piece of fall decor in my hubby’s man cave garage. Because apparently this is how you sneak fall decor into a golf-obsessed husband’s space. 😉⛳️

Honestly, I think these would be such a fun DIY golf gift idea too! If you want my full step by step tutorial, comment “golf” below and I’ll send it your way! 

Would your husband approve of these golf ball pumpkins, or would he tell you to leave his man cave alone?! 😂👇🏻

Because apparently if I put on a cute outfit, walk dramatically through some twinkle lights, and simply ✨ignore my responsibilities✨… they no longer exist.

That’s how adulting works, right?! 🤣

Consider this your reminder that the laundry, emails, errands, cleaning, and never-ending to-do list will still be there later. Sometimes you just need to romanticize your life and pretend you have absolutely nothing to do for a minute. 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one entering the weekend with a to-do list I have ZERO intentions of completing. 👇🏻

If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure this would be it. 🎃☕️🍂

I made this easy pumpkin pecan coffee cake to celebrate the start of fall, and y’all… I think I just found my new favorite pumpkin recipe!

The pumpkin coffee cake itself is incredibly soft and moist with all those warm pumpkin spice flavors, but the BEST part might be that buttery cinnamon pecan streusel topping. 🤤 It gives every bite the perfect little crunch!

And despite how good it looks, this recipe is actually SO easy to make. You don’t even need a stand mixer, just a couple of bowls, a baking dish and about 10 minutes of prep!

It’s the perfect easy fall breakfast for a slow weekend morning with a cup of coffee, but it would also be SO good for a fall brunch, Thanksgiving morning or even dessert.

Basically, if you’re looking for an excuse to start baking all the pumpkin recipes… this is it. 😂🎃

Adding Easy, Christmas Touches to Your Everyday Rae Dunn Pieces

If you’re like me and love to decorate for Christmas and love to collect Rae Dunn pieces too, then this blog post is definitely for you! I have loved all the Christmas pieces she has released this year, but I am not loving the prices and having to store them all away after the season is over.

I like to add some Christmas touches to my pieces that I use daily and aren’t specifically Christmas pieces. It saves me money and storage space, but it still looks special for Christmas! So below I have shared all my little tips and tricks to spice up your regular Rae Dunn pieces for the holiday!

Rae Dunn Christmas Collection
Loving the little pops of red in my cabinet display!

What You Will Need:

First of all, you will need some kind of Christmas ribbon and/or twine you like. I got mine from Michael’s and it was a huge roll so I have plenty left over.

I am thinking about wrapping my presents in kraft paper and then using this leftover twine to tie the ribbons around them so it worked out perfectly getting a larger roll!

And then I just took the twine and tied it around the top of each canister, right below the lid area as you can see below.

Christmas Ribbon Around Rae Dunn Canisters
Here is the twine I used and I doubled it so it made a thicker looking bow each time I tied it around a canister.

Christmas Mixing Bowls

I also love her red Christmas mixing bowl sets she came out with, but I am not about to pay over $40 for them. Especially when I already have a perfectly good regular set of mixing bowls.

So I just added some washi tape found in the Target Dollar Spot and taped it around the rim of each bowl to make it more festive.

I was so nervous to do this at first because I was afraid the tape would stick and ruin my bowls. But getting the washi tape off is super easy and it all comes off in one piece and doesn’t leave any sticky residue on your bowls!

So I just spent $2 to make my own set of Christmas Rae Dunn mixing bowls! Much better price in my humble opinion!

Here is the washi tape in it’s package. They have a lot of different patterns to choose from as well.
Look how cute they turned out!

Christmas Birdhouses

I also love to add a few little touches to my birdhouses as well. Such as, adding a wreath (from the Target Dollar Spot of course!) and a Christmas ribbon on top too.

I secured the wreath with some glue dots and they are super easy to apply and remove as well. I was nervous the first time I used them because I thought they would ruin my birdhouse when I took them off, but it came off just fine with no residue, just like the washi tape above!

Rae Dunn Christmas Birdhouse
Much more festive with a wreath and a ribbon!

So those are all the simple and easy tips I have for you to try out with your pieces too!

Literally only took me like an hour and only cost me a few dollars to transform my regular display into a Christmas wonderland!

And I also love how everything goes with my Christmas theme I already chose for my main tree too. Happy decorating everyone!

And can we talk about these new fall eucalyptus trees from @nearlynaturalfloral?! 😍 I feel like they completely pulled the whole fall bedroom look together. The deep, moody colors are perfect for creating that warm and cozy autumn vibe I love.

I swear I sleep better when my bedroom is decorated for the season too. 😂 Anyone else?!

And of course, it wouldn’t be fall in our house without an @antiquecandleco_ candle burning. 🕯️🍁 Their fall scents make the entire house smell like autumn perfection!

Are you team decorate every room for fall or do you keep the seasonal decor to just a few spaces? Tell me below! 👇🏻

When my hubby first got this rotating watch displa When my hubby first got this rotating watch display case, I’m not gonna lie… I thought he was being a little ridiculous and extra 😂 Like, do the watches really need their own light-up display?!

Turns out… yes. Yes, they do. 🤣

Now I totally get the hype! I love the blue LED light in the background, the slow rotating display, and how it keeps his watch collection organized instead of having watches scattered all over the place. It honestly looks SO cool sitting out too!

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for a husband, boyfriend, dad, or any watch lover in your life, I feel like this would be such a good gift idea. 👏🏻⌚️ Especially for the guy who already seems to have everything!

Apparently I’m enabling the watch obsession now instead of questioning it. 😂

Would the watch-obsessed man in your life love this too?! 👇🏻

Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to look just like my Charlie?! 😹 Well apparently, I forgot to get Riley’s approval first.

Little Miss Riley discovered the finished DIY cat statue proudly displayed on the porch, and her reaction absolutely sent me. 💀 

At first, I’m pretty sure she thought we had brought home a FOURTH cat without consulting her. She kept staring at it from a safe distance like, “Ummm… excuse me?! Who is THAT?!” 👀🐈

Eventually, she worked up enough courage to jump up there and confront the mysterious imposter cat herself… only to realize it was FAKE. 🤣

And then, of course, she immediately had to play it cool like she totally knew that the entire time. 😹

Nothing humbles a cat faster than realizing she just tried to intimidate a painted statue. 😂

Cat moms, please tell me I’m not the only one whose cats get suspicious over literally ANY new piece of decor?!

I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf ball pumpkins, and I think I just found the perfect fall decor for a golfer’s man cave!

I used my Cricut to cut out some of my hubby’s favorite golf brand logos, then applied them to the pumpkins with transfer tape. That’s literally it! Such an easy Cricut fall craft, but they turned out SO cute.

You could definitely hand-paint the logos if you don’t have a Cricut…but y’all know me and my shaky hands. 😂 Painting tiny golf logos was absolutely NOT happening, so my Cricut saved the day!

Now these golf-themed pumpkins are officially my favorite piece of fall decor in my hubby’s man cave garage. Because apparently this is how you sneak fall decor into a golf-obsessed husband’s space. 😉⛳️

Honestly, I think these would be such a fun DIY golf gift idea too! If you want my full step by step tutorial, comment “golf” below and I’ll send it your way! 

Would your husband approve of these golf ball pumpkins, or would he tell you to leave his man cave alone?! 😂👇🏻

Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn’t a mile long and I don’t have approximately 47 things I should be doing. 😂

Because apparently if I put on a cute outfit, walk dramatically through some twinkle lights, and simply ✨ignore my responsibilities✨… they no longer exist.

That’s how adulting works, right?! 🤣

Consider this your reminder that the laundry, emails, errands, cleaning, and never-ending to-do list will still be there later. Sometimes you just need to romanticize your life and pretend you have absolutely nothing to do for a minute. 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one entering the weekend with a to-do list I have ZERO intentions of completing. 👇🏻

If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure this would be it. 🎃☕️🍂

I made this easy pumpkin pecan coffee cake to celebrate the start of fall, and y’all… I think I just found my new favorite pumpkin recipe!

The pumpkin coffee cake itself is incredibly soft and moist with all those warm pumpkin spice flavors, but the BEST part might be that buttery cinnamon pecan streusel topping. 🤤 It gives every bite the perfect little crunch!

And despite how good it looks, this recipe is actually SO easy to make. You don’t even need a stand mixer, just a couple of bowls, a baking dish and about 10 minutes of prep!

It’s the perfect easy fall breakfast for a slow weekend morning with a cup of coffee, but it would also be SO good for a fall brunch, Thanksgiving morning or even dessert.

Basically, if you’re looking for an excuse to start baking all the pumpkin recipes… this is it. 😂🎃

Save this easy pumpkin coffee cake recipe for your fall baking list, and comment “PUMPKIN” below and I’ll send you the full recipe! 👇🏻
