Happy Fall Y'all!

Fall is here!!! 

It actually rained yesterday...and the weather is cooler! 

The high is only in the 60's here in Southern California so I can finally break out my skinny jeans and boots!

Summer is my favorite season....but I love Fall for so many reasons! 

-Kids are back in school which means we have more of a schedule around here! 

-I can wear boots and Uggs! Oh how I love my Uggs! My boyfriend gets annoyed by how much I wear them...so he bought me the cute black knit ones!

-I can decorate the house! I love to buy those little tiny pumpkins and use them as decorations! They last forever so we get to enjoy them through Thanksgiving! 

- I get to use my crock pot ALL.THE.TIME!

-Turkey Chili...and jalapeno cheddar cornbread....just another reason why I love fall! 

-Halloween Costumes! I'm 37 and I think I've dressed up every.single.year of my life! (I may have missed one year in my twenties)

I made this cute centerpiece yesterday...Just wanted to share...so easy and CHEAP! (under $10)...and...it will last until I bust out the Christmas decorations! Score! 

I started with a glass vase...that I already had...I bought several ears of Indian Corn, a few little pumpkins and a couple of gourds at Sprouts

Lined the Indian Corn up around the outside....put a gourd in the middle to take up space..

 a few pumpkins in the back 

(because I didn't have enough Indian Corn to go all the way around)

 Voila....A festive "Natural" Centerpiece that will last until Thanksgiving!

{beware not to set a candle too close to the husks...those things will go up in flames quick!}
