Weekending + Sunday Dinner

We finished tons of projects around the house, most notably our kitchen tile which I can’t wait to share photos of. We finally picked up some pumpkins & I am living for all the Fall feelings right now!!! It has been so fun decorating, and I cannot wait to hang our kitchen shelves so we can really go all out! We did lots of lounging, busted out our favorite Room on the Broom movie & the girls played outside enjoying the early morning 60 degree weather (still hot AF in the afternoon).

You may have seen this on my snapchat a few weekends ago, but we were at home depot and they had all of their halloween stuff out. The girls were obsessed with all of these little three foot tall motion activated figurines, a witch and a frankenstein and skeleton and such. The girls were dancing with them and talking to them, and Harper could not get over this little zombie bride one, she kept asking me if she was “going to a wedding or somethin’?” and wanted to braid her long white hair. Anyway, Sunday morning, Harper suggested to Brandon that they go on a date in the afternoon while little sissies were napping. He told her yes, so she ran off to pack her bag and I saw her grab a brush to put in it. I asked her if she was going to ask dad to braid her hair while they were out, and she said “no, I’m going to ask him to take me to home depot so I can brush that halloween girl’s hair!!!”
For Sunday dinner, we made a long time favorite, loaded baked potato soup. This time I made it in the crockpot, this is the recipe I most often use, only this time I cooked the potatoes in chicken broth in the crockpot for 4 hours rather than adding them into the soup, then added the soup ingredients together at the end and left it to cook for a bit to thicken up! 😉 Super easy & always a hit for everyone!! Definitely share your slow cooker soup recipes below, tis the season!!!

Hope you all had a great weekend! XO

    I'm with Harper, unbrushed hair is one of the worst things. How adorable that she wanted to go back and fix her hair. Props to you for showing her what's up!!
