A Trip To The Pumpkin Patch + My Favorite Sweater For Fall

Fall is my favorite time of year. Pumpkin-flavored everything, the orange hues, sweater weather, cool temperatures... everything about it is perfection. I always love my annual trips to the pumpkin patch, because not only are they so fun, I always get the cutest pictures and they make me so happy just looking at them!



12 Things Vol. 6

Happy Friday! My apologies for no blog post earlier this week; I've been feeling somewhat uninspired lately so I took a short break from social media, but I'm feeling refreshed and can't wait to come back!

what my afternoons consist of
1. I'm off to Waco this weekend! I can't wait to go to Magnolia Market and do some shopping.

2. Pumpkin Pie Halo Top has been my new addiction this past week. It is so creamy and sweet!

Life Lately Vol. 43

I think a Life Lately post has been long overdue. My life has been filled with what feels like nonstop activity lately, and I have so much to catch y'all up on. Grab a cup of coffee (and maybe a muffin or something while you're at it) and sit back, because this post is going to be a long one!


First things first... I went to Austin a couple weeks ago! Go check out that post here if you want to read all about that trip :)

Now that I have that out of the way... here's everything else I've been up to!

Currently Vol. 14

Happy Friday! This week has been the first week that it finally feels like fall, and I am beyond ecstatic. The weather is cool, my fridge is stocked pumpkin-flavored everything, I get to break out my sweaters... life is good.

Eating... I had so much delicious food in Austin last weekend, including three different dishes of migas (my FAVE) and five scoops of ice cream!

12 Things Vol. 5

It feels like it's been forever since I've sat down to talk to y'all! These past couple weeks have been incredibly busy, so I've had no time to write blog posts or take pictures. I hate not having new content to share, but I'm in Austin this weekend so hopefully I can get some fun content for y'all while I'm here!

homecoming with my friend ryleigh!!

1. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm in Austin for the weekend. I'm touring UT today and I'm going to some sessions on business and journalism. It's going to be such a fun weekend!
