Perfect Day at the Pumpkin Patch!

 Hi My Loves!!!

This weekend we went to the Pumpkin Patch to get our pumpkins for Halloween and to go and enjoy the festivities at our local corn maize ;) If you haven't already watched the vlog then head on over and watch!!


Here's a few extra pictures that I wanted to share with you :) 

I forgot to bring my mascara in the car (I did my makeup in the car) but here's the makeup I wore. Makeup Geeks Shimma Shimma, Brown Sugar & Frappe on the eyes and Urban Decay's Naked Lip Pencil with Pixi Jumpo Lip Pencil in Nearly Naked over.


We were all so excited when we saw the farm animals. We love our animals :) They had piggies, sheep, goats, cows and mini horses and they were all so cute and very friendly. Phoenix and Lily loved them all. Lily loved the pigs the most and Phoenix liked the sheep.



This was really cute with little cow trivia. Did you know that it takes 350 squirts to make a gallon of milk? I'm glad I'm not a cow!




This was our little friend that Phoenix decided to name Phoenix ;)


The cow was not too happy about us taking pictures of him while he was trying to have a peaceful lunch.


Lily and Daddy vlogging me while I took pictures of them :) Double vloggers!


It was such a beautiful day. The perfect weather and it was so pretty.


Phoenix loved riding in the wagon and most of all playing with the door lock :)






Lily was having fun looking at all the pumpkins although every time I tried to get a picture, she looks grumpy :)




Such a beautiful pumpkin patch. I just love the way corn looks against the blue sky. So pretty.






Our pumpkin patch is cool because they have white, yellow, orange and red pumpkins. I got a yellow one and the kids and Daddy got orange.


The had little cow rides.....


We decided to go on the big tractor ride so that we could all go together.


How do you like Phoenix's smile??? LOL




The corn pit was the kids favorite. They spent so long in there dumping the corn in and out of the trucks. Lily had corn all over her tights but she did not mind one bit. 






This was a beautiful display they had at the area to purchase the pumpkins. Strange looking gourds.


There's me pulling Phoenix while vlogging Daddy :)



How beautiful is this picture that Jay took?







We had so much fun at our pumpkin patch. Not only does it support our local farmers, it's so much more fun than just picking one out at the store. I highly suggest you go to your local pumpkin patch if you have young children.... or even if you don't! Jay and I had just as much fun as the kids... if not more haha!

Incase you haven't seen my latest video....


Thanks for reading :)

TAG: I Love Fall!

Hi My Loves!!!

If you haven't heard me say it before, here goes again... I LOVE FALL!!!! It's my very favorite season. 

I was tagged by the lovely TheDailyCupcake to do the I Love Fall Tag. Thanks my lovely!
WATCH HER'S HERE:


Since I'm still not at the point where I'm able to film, I figured I would do a blog post on it instead :) So here are the questions! I tag you all!!!

QUESTIONS:

1. Favorite Fall lip product? 
I love wearing reds in the fall. It just makes me feel festive! My favorite is NYX lip liner in Deep Red with Hot Red in the inner part of my lip. I usually put Mac Sheen Supreme lipstick in Full Speed over it.

2. Favorite Fall Nail Polish?
I love Essie Fifth Avenue for Fall & Winter. It's the perfect orange red and the formula lasts so long! I actually found mine at Walfart for $1 on the clearance section!


3. Favorite Starbucks Fall Drink?
I'm a creature of habit... I always order the same thing. Tall decaf White Chocolate Mocha. It's just the best :)

4. Favorite Fall Candle?
My very favorites were my pumpkin pie cookie candles that I created with The Candle Crate. Her candles are the most pigmented smelling candles ever.... but I ran out :( POOOO!!!! 


I picked these up at Shopko when they were having their massive sale. Normally they are $15 and I got them for $3.88. And they are big! They are not the strongest candles I've ever had, but they smell nice and they were a good deal. Plus they look festive :) I also love the Walmart pumpkin spice ones too. They only come out around Fall and I always try to stock up.



5. Favorite Fall Scarf or accessory?
Definitely my leopard infinity scarf from Express! I wear the dilly dang dooly out of that thing in the cooler weather! It's soft and so comfy!! It's actually on sale right now for $20. It's amazing.

6. Haunted house, haunted hay ride, or haunted corn maze?
None of the above. I hate haunted anything or scary movies because I get really bad nightmares. And no corn maze because I'm super claustrophobic and nervous that I won't be able to get out and then nobody will find me and I'll die. Plus there are tons of spiders in corn mazes and I hate spiders.

7. Favorite Halloween movie?
I don't ever watch scary movies because I'm paranoid it will happen to me. If you haven't noticed by now, I'm like the most nervous, paranoid weirdo I know. Haha! Doc McStuffins has a nice little Halloween episode :)

8. Favorite candy to eat on Halloween?
Milky Way for sure!!!

9. What are you dressing up as for Halloween?!
Probably nothing as I don't really have the time to get all snazzied up, so I'll just go as myself.... a busy Mommy of 2 under the age of 2. Haha!!! It's the easiest to dress up as..... throw your hair in a messy bun, no makeup and sweats and your good to go! My focus is getting my babies all decked out in their costumes :)

10. What is your Favorite thing about Fall?
I love the colors, the scents, the clothes, the food.... pretty much everything about it. By the end of Summer I'm usually so hot, that I'm so ready to bundle up with a cozy sweater and my very favorite leopard scarf.


There you go :) Now you know a little more about my quirks! 

And here are a few festive pictures to get you in the spirit too :)

These are my favorite little festive salt & pepper shakers that we received from a lovely subscriber of ours a long time ago when we used to vlog. I pulled them out as soon as I could to make our table look fabulous for fall :)




My little cinnamon scented pumpkins that sit on our table as well. 


We went to a pumpkin patch this year for the very first time. I've never been to one before, so it was super fun. The pumpkins are definitely more expensive than just picking them up at Walfart.... but it does support our local farms, so that's good. 

It was so beautiful out there!


It was super cool because they had white, orange and red pumpkins. The red ones looked like giant tomatoes! It was super cool. We picked up regular orange ones but the other colors were definitely fun! Isn't it beautiful??? 


There's a little bit of Fall festiveness if you're not already in the mood for my most favorite season :)

What's everyone planning on being for Halloween? Not long to go now! This month has flown by!

Happy Thursday :)
