Fall is here!

The weather is cooling off, and fall has officially arrived! That means it is time to decorate the house and bake delicious fall goods. I would love to go way overboard with decorating our house, but our budget doesn't allow...so for now, I just have minimal (but super adorable) decor and it makes me all warm and cozy inside.
Of course you have to start with a fall wreath! I use this one for fall and Christmas, but at Christmas I add some little snowflakes to it. I just love this wreath!

My new Pumpkin sign is one of my favorites. I found this steal at Hobby Lobby for $4.50! Love it!
For these, I took some hurricane vases that I already had, added a little ribbon and embellishment and filled with fun things. The one on the left just has some acorns and pinecones, and the one on the right is filled with peanut butter m&m's in all fall colors. Please note: I took this picture immediately after filling the vases because I knew as soon as Wes saw the m&m's it would be gone! And much to my surprise, it is still half full today...good job on the self control Babe :)

My adorable pumpkins, a baked apple pie candle, and a few autumn leaves. 

This is how my little bar top looks. It is definitely the focal point downstairs since I no longer have a coffee table or side tables to add decor to, thanks to my little crawling monster. But I love how this turned out, it is very fun and festive!
I am still working on the centerpiece on our dining room table. As soon as I get it figured out I promise to post some pictures.

Next up, something delicious!

I started with a few of these....
then I added a little bit of this
and I ended up with this oooey goooey sticky deliciousness on a stick


Don't feel bad if you are drooling, I totally understand! They were just as good as they look, if not better!

After decorating and cooking, the only thing left to do was smooch all over this little man! A perfect ending to my fall day!
