Blame it on Renfest if you like but I love lacy bell sleeve tops!

I need this in my kitchen. How cool is this??

October Must Watch List

Good Morning Everyone, 

So Tuesday I shared with you all my October Playlist and now this week I am going to share with you my October Movie List! These are my Must Watch List movies that get me in the mood for Halloween/Fall/Fun. I have broken the list down into two columns. The first one is what I call the Easy Halloween movies. Meaning they are not really scary and mostly just campy fun times. The second column is more of the horror stuff. I know I'm in the minority when it comes to scary movies so I tried to keep those to a minimum for you all! 

What are your favorite Halloween movies? Are you a Easy Halloween person or a Horror Fan? See something on this list that you absolutely love? Let me know in the comments!

Confessions 10/7-With a Little Pitch Perfect Goodness

Good Morning Everyone,

Welcome back to Confession! 

Let's Confess....

I was SO jealous when my family went to see The Martian last Friday. They all went during the day and I couldn't go because I am pretty sure that Kyra would not appreciate the story as much as I would. Also I am not one of those people that takes their kid to an adult movie only to have the kid get bored and then annoy everyone else there. #respectfulmom .

 

 I confess however that while I was pouting Robert took Kyra and I to the indoor playground at Marshalls were Kyra had a blast and then we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. #yum

 

I was beyond thrilled that we went back to Ren Fest on Saturday. It was kind of spur of the moment. My parents were going and my brother and his girlfriend were going to be there as well so we decided to give it another try. I am so happy to say that Kyra was perfect this go around. Maybe it was because her grandparents were there. Maybe it was because we plied her with yummy food stuffs (funnel cake was a particular hit). Or maybe it was just a better day. Whatever the reason this trip was awesome and I had all the fun I had expected from the week before! 

I spend the majority of Monday working on my blog and catching up with comments and other blog posts. So if you got a comment from a post from two weeks ago, I am not a stalker, I just was playing catch up. I did manage to catch up however and it just makes my little heart sing! 

I confess that I totally thought the book linkup was yesterday and nearly posted my post but thankfully I read Megan's post on Monday and it reminded me that it is in fact NEXT Tuesday. I have no idea why I got so ahead of myself! 

I confess that when we got out of the grocery store for under $100 bucks I did a little dance in the parking lot. #budgetbabe 

I confess that I have been EXTRA nice to my pups since I started watching ZOO on Netflix......#Iloveyou #pleasedonteatmyface 

That's it for me this week! Be sure join the linkup and confess to your heart's content! 

Happy Wednesday Everyone.

Tuesday Tunes: October Playlist

Good Morning Everyone, 

Today I thought I would share with you my October Playlist! Now these are the songs that I listen to pretty much throughout the entire month. Some are Halloween themed, some are just songs that make me think of October...though I have no good reason as to why. Hope you enjoy! 

 I really wanted to embed all the music for you all but it just wasn't happening and I thought it was too many for YouTube videos. If you see a song you haven't heard of I did make sure that all of them had a video on YouTube so you can check them out there!

 Do you have playlists for specific months? Songs that remind you of a certain times of the year? Let me know in the comments below!

Currently....

Reading.... Some Girls Are by Courtney Summers. Not very far in at the moment but I am completely hooked. It was highly recommended at last months Show Us Your Books Linkup. Speaking of the linkup, it is taking place tomorrow for our September Reads! (Edit: It's NEXT Tuesday! I'm ahead of myself already....)  Be sure to stop by and add some awesome books to your reading list! 

 

 

Watching....Zoo on Netflix. It was just added at the beginning of the month and I am totally into it. I even put the book it is based on on hold at the library because I just have to know what is going on and why the animals are suddenly turning on humanity. Very Intriguing! 

Needing.....to do a massive amount of chores since I took the weekend to run around and have fun instead. I don't really mind except the dishes....ugh I hate dishes. 


Wanting.....to get my Christmas Lists complete so that I can start shopping and getting ready for the season. Sure it may seem early to some but as a budget shopper I need to be prepared should things go on sale! 

Enjoying.....the fact that this has been the weather for the past couple days. Yay Fall!! 

Happy Monday Everyone!

Good Morning Everyone, 

It's Friday and that means it is time for Favorites! 

Beauty: 

Absolutely in love with this color! I would leave off the matte finish though.

I have an obsession with cat eyes. This is gorgeous.

Yes. 10/10 would wear all fall long. I am in love with that deep burgundy color.

Yep would also wear pretty much all through fall and winter. 

Nerdy Girl: 

Need it.

Funnies: 

Song of the Week: You can blame Kyra for this one. She has had it on repeat and it is all that is in my head now.....

Happy Friday Everyone! Have a safe and wonderful weekend!

Thursday Thoughts: October Goals 2015

Good Morning Everyone, 

Happy October 1st! 

This year really is flying by but honestly I love the fall so I am very happy that we have arrived at this time of the year! 

Since it is a new month and since I've been needing to make some changes I decided that today I would share my monthly goals with you all. 

1) Make time for myself- This one is pretty big. If you read my confession post yesterday you probably know that I've been struggling with Mommy Guilt and feeling pretty bad about asking for any kind of help. However I know that it is in the best interest of my family and myself to start making a little time for just me. My mom offered to take Kyra a couple times a week so that I could go and workout for an hour and start getting her used to the idea that I don't have to be with her 24/7. 

2) Step up the blogging game- I felt like I slacked of in September a lot. I really didn't post that often and when I did they were just mostly fluff posts. So this month I am going to try and really put out some good content and blog everyday Monday through Friday this month. I hope to get one or two weekend posts up as well. 

3) Make a "big" goal list- I feel like I need to refocus on the things that I really want in life. Everyone needs to have a goal that they are working toward and I really feel like I need to figure out just what it is that I want and start making steps toward achieving those things. 

4) Make Meal Planning a priority- Budgeting is something that I am still learning but I know for a fact that meal planning makes all the difference in our budget and in my daily stress level. If I have a plan for dinner it feels like the rest of the day falls into place. 

5) Write- Write, Write, and Write some more. I felt like last month I was pretty much shut down in the creative/writing department. I need to get things moving again in my brain. I need that creative outlet. Even if what I write is never seen, even if it is pretty much crap, it won't matter. Any word written is better than the one not written. 

So there you have my goals for the month. Do you have any goals for the month? Is there something in particular that you are excited about taking on? Let me know in the comments!
