Halloween-ing

Just in case you weren't aware, Halloween isn't just one day. It's a month long, and all month I've been trying to work Halloween into everything. First off I decorated the apartment in bats and skulls and frogs. 
Sammy and I had to compromise on some of our decorations. I like cute scary, he likes bloody scary. That ghoul found itself in the shopping cart without my seeing.

Then I've tried to sneak Halloween into all of my outfits. Lots of orange and purples. I used a skeleton necklace to hold my ID badge.
Bats leggings that are hard to see
Bat socks 
And this isn't Halloweeny, but this was another cute outfit. 
We also went to a corn maze with some friends. It wasn't as fun as it used to be as a teen. The boys turned it into a video game and wanted to hit all of the stations and were actually reading the map so we were never lost. Plus, with four of us it was hard to compromise on where to go. I loved running in the dark, gripping my friends arms and going in circles and being lost and finding our way out. Instead, it was like paying for a chat with friends in some corn. It was a nice night, but a little sad at the same time. Sammy and I will have to try again next year. 

We also went to a Halloween party, which I'll write about later. 

Happy Halloween everyone! May your nights be spooky, but not too scary, and may you have fun and have candy, but not too much:)

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
