November // Lately, Highlights and December Bucket list

-

Hey everyone! What a month it's been!
So unfortunately this post won't have any of my photos I took this moth because I lost the cord for my camera to plug in to the computer sooooooo.......

Anyway here are my November highlights:

  • Did I mention before that I now have my own room? Well I have and I love it!
  • We had a thunder storm and ran around in the rain. It kinda turned into a water fight which was fun!
  • I decorated my room all Christmasy. And I will be doing a post about that but as I said I can't upload any of my own photos at the moment.
  • My brother had his 13th birthday yesterday, the 30th, and we had homemade pizza for dinner and watched Agatha Christie's Poirot mysteries.
  • We went to the library! Not that exciting but I love going to the library.
  • I finished my Goodreads 2017 Reading challenge to read 45 books. Whoo-hoo!
  • We saw quite a few movies. The Man from U.N.C.L.E, Partners in Crime mini series, The Tourist, Christmas with Holly, Get Smart, Letters to Juliet, and some others I can't remember.
  • Summer started!


Loved this movie! Illya & Gabi xoxo All three of them make a great trio!

August Favourites

Wow, August has come to an end already! I am so excited that Spring is basically here now. The sunny weather and longer days have really done something to my creative juices, which seemed to be hibernating during winter and now there are awake and flowing again. Books The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson My goodness, I enjoyed this book so much! I have a full review in the works but I definitely had to mention it in this post. It's like the second book its series(Medieval Fairytale series). I have just started the third and final book, The Noble Servant and it is equally as intriguing as The Beautiful Pretender. And the cover of TBP....so pretty! Sarah, Plain, and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan This book has become a new all-time favourite of mine! I found this on audiobook on my library's app and since I'd seen the movies a long time ago I decided to give it a go and get a boost on my Goodreads reading challenge. But I never would have known how much

Why I Want To Be A Mother & Homemaker

Hello darlings! I'm going to warn you now, what I am about to say in this post might be a little controversial and many women today wouldn't share my opinions on these topics. But I have decided to go ahead and share what is on my heart about being a mother & homemaker and I hope that you find it interesting and inspiring all the same. My reason for speaking about this is because I think its something that is unpopular but necessary in today's society and the women that do want to pursue the life of a mother/homemaker often feel alone in their choice of lifestyle. My Life Dream If you were to ask me what my biggest dream in life is, my answer wouldn't be to have a great career and a fancy apartment in the city. No, my answer would be this, that my dream is to become a wife and mother and create a home in the country where we can grow our own food, live naturally and simply and let my kids grow up getting dirty and playing outdoors. We'd have som

What's on my Autumn Wardrobe Wishlist

  Summer is slowly coming to an end and I'm gearing up for the cooler weather by thinking about my autumn wardrobe. I'm planning a little thrifting trip in the next few weeks so I'm hoping I'll be able to find at least a few of these pieces while I'm there.  One of my wardrobe goals for the past couple of years has been to simplify & make it more minimal by slowly adding more basics and colours that easily mix & match with one another. So I kept this idea in mind while I'm putting together this list.  I've noticed that what's lacking in my autumn wardrobe is more tops rather than bottoms.  You can easily get away with only a few bottoms but it's usually the top you're wearing that people notice. So its good to have a little variety!  With all that being said, here are a few things I'm hoping to add to my autumn closet this season. Knit sweaters in neutral tones (white, beige, grey etc.) Source Lately, I've really been loving neutr
