:: Weekend Lovelies ::
Happy Weekend, Friends! Nicole and I hope that you are all doing well and enjoying the first weekend of November! Do you have any fun fall plans? If so… please share!
I’m personally hoping for a relaxing weekend spent at home… {As if that’s possible with four kids, right?!} We’ve been quite busy with homeschooling, family hikes {the photo above was taken on our hike last week}, and ballet rehearsals for Miss Sophia Blue, among other things! We got our first dusting of snow a couple of weeks ago! We are truly soaking up this lovely season of autumn, since it is all so new to us!
This edition of {weekend} lovelies is a mixture of pretty things… some comforting recipes, simple home design, DIY projects, the best crafting blogs, a love story, and more! I hope that you’re able to take a moment and enjoy them while sipping on your favorite warm drink!
Maple Brown Sugar Pumpkin Roll // Bakeaholic Mama I must make this dessert, simply based on how divine the filling looks! Oh my!

Have a wonderful weekend! {xo}










Love the photo of the steps through the narrowing trees — I’m in love with sunbursts!
I, too, pinned the messy french twist on Pinterest. Earlier this year, I cut off 6 inches of hair. So, just as soon as I have enough, I’m attempting that look!
Oh Mandi… you’re the sweetest! I’m quite obsessed with capturing those beautiful sunbursts lately! They feel like a glimpse of heaven! I would love to attempt that messy french twist myself! I think I have the length…. but my hair is SO thick! Think I would need some help! So happy you’ve stopped by our blog! Big hugs to you, my friend! xoxo
