Farewell, October🎃

 October is SO beautiful isn't it?  

Not only were some of my favorite people born during this month, but it always seems that it is the quickest season.  Maybe that's why I love it the most.  I never find myself growing tired of it's beauty.  As we were driving down the road this month, I recall Con & I discussing how we hope it is always the season of "fall" in heaven.  🍁. Our October days have been full of football, work, & birthday parties.  I want to scream SLOW DOWN to it all, but I haven't found a time where that seems to work. 🙃

I need to be posting about Conley's birthday, and I will, but today- I just want to write about nonsense.

I'm just going to be honest.  This time in my life may be one of the lower self confidence times.  Ever found yourself in those seasons?  Lately, it seems I've found myself feeling old, washed up, & falling short with a lot of things.  Cade has made several comments about my demeanor lately, so it isn't something that I'm keeping in very well, it's radiating outwardly as well.  Maybe it's 2020.  Maybe it's the heat in October.  Or maybe it's just Cassidy.


Regardless, I'm a-what they call "hot mess," if you will...

Nonetheless, I'm not the type of person that gives up or settles with this feeling.  I may drag my feet during the downer times & a lot of times get caught in the sadness if I allow myself.  But, I'm always determined to get up & keep trying.  God gives us one life, & I know He means for us to live it.

And that's what I'm going to do.

I read this beautiful post today.  And at a time like this when I feel this way-it really just lifted me up.

I'd like to share with you, too❤️



Other things that fill my life with sunny stuff...

one.  the things baker loves...

tepp tepp, baby dolls, sticking her tongue out, + fuzzy slippers in that order.  

would you believe the baby that won't wear shoes, won't offer to take these babies off?😂
two. my skeleton mama sweatshirt + pumpkins everywhere
amazon gold is what this is!  I swear I wear it everyday.

three.  mr. bones always brings cheer to my heart 
especially with his "basic look" this year

four. the fact that my FIVE year old Conley still needs his mama.
God knew I needed this boy! 

five. watching these boys play 🏈
i have to be the first to admit i'm ready for a break (chasing Bae around everywhere & keeping her from swiping all the gatorade bottles during this pandemic is BRUTAL), but i have loved seeing Cam grow to love it.  it started out rough for the tender guy-but, he has learned so much physically and mentally- and Con, well, he has made TONS of friends😆. I love to see their relationship with Cade grow through this too.  So so special.


six.  with football season, comes the beloved Thursday Grocery Eve= CHICK-FIL-A nights.
I live for them.  No dirty dishes or cooking for me.  And.  Chick fil a - In the Kanye West voice.

Yes, I'm going to end this sappy soggy post with this beautiful foodie footage.  ❤️
Wishing you all a Happy Friday Eve! (And Halloween Eve Eve😉)
