Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule. ~Frederick W. Robertson Our home is not big nor fancy but just cozy enough for our lil family. So grateful that we did not get affected by hurricane Sandy and prayers to anyone north of us that was affected. Happy Wednesday and Happy Halloween! Taking Kaylee trick or treating tonight!

Lately (through my phone)

I am officially off the shopping ban. I did pretty well with not buying unnecessary items that I don't need these past few months.  Lately I am just been shopping for basic things; such as this J Crew vintage cotton T-shirt . They are on sale for $14.99 plus another 25% off on all clearance at the store. I love J Crew cotton shirt, the quality is so much better then F21 or HM. The pink shorts are just over $7 but a size 0. I hope I can lose some weight by next summer so I can fit into in a bit better haha! I love my J Crew cafĂ© capri  in wool. I actually got it for $29.00 after 25% off due to a price mishap on their part.  :) Definitely a new favorite pant to wear all year long. My simple everyday work outfit. I love the outdoor in the Fall. Love that the leaves are now changing colors in Virginia and the weather is a lot cooler at night. Thanks for visiting! 

Winery and Friends

The beautiful birthday girl We finished 4 bottles! (there were 7 of us) we were super happy right after! Lookbook:: Scarf: Urban Outfitters Pants: JCrew : Bag: MK Happy Monday!! Over this past weekend, I drove up to DC and celebrated my friend’s birthday. Hubby was so sweet and took care of Kaylee while this momma went on a mini vaca. We went to a cute little winery called Bull Run in Centerville, VA. The weather was absolutely beautiful and had light breezes throughout the day. We wine tasted and then ordered a few of bottles of wine to sip on while we were soaking up some sun. I had such a great time, a little bit too much fun since I was a bit tipsy after just 2 glasses! I am definitely a lightweight and a very inexperienced wine drinker! Have you been to a winery? It was my first time and I definitely want to go back again! I am really busy with different projects here and there which keeps me behind on blogging. Thanks for visiting and allowing me to share my
