5 on Friday

Happy Friday!

ONE.   I finally decorated my house for fall.  It looks the exact same every year, and don't have much, but I enjoy it!  It was so fun to pull out the decor because it reminds me of the exciting time of year.  I really do love this season, and this year is going to be a special one with our sweet girl!

TWO.  My girlfriend (you all know her, Nikki, from La Mia Vita) snapped some pictures (so casually in about 5 minutes) of Andie when I saw her last weekend and I can't believe how cute they turned out.  Nic, you are so talented... love them... and finally have a couple pictures of Andie and I that I don't hate the way I look in.  Will share more soon.

THREE.  I have already started Christmas shopping.  I can't believe it's two months from TODAY!  It creeps up on me every year.  Is it weird that I am also excited for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals?  My husband thinks I am coocoo because I have my credit card number memorized.  Step away from the online sales and free shipping!!

FOUR.  Ebba released their Abundance Candles!  My favorite is the quotes on the front of the candles.  They make such a cute gift.   Love that everything from Ebba is hand made in Los Angeles.

FIVE.  The youth volunteers involved with the non profit I work for are doing our neighborhood food blitz this coming weekend.  Basically, we drop grocery bags off at people's homes with a wish list of items the local food banks need.  If they have anything in their pantry they wish to donate, they fill the bag and put it on the doorstep - then our youth volunteers will come by their house a week later to pick it up.  The food banks are in NEED right now - so any little bit helps.  It feels good to help fill hungry bellies.
