Happy Halloween, friends! I hope your day is filled with twix bars, calm and well-behaved children, and a timely bedtime.
(NONE OF THAT WILL HAPPEN. And if you think it will, then congratulations on your newborn.)

Y'all. It happened.. We have officially dropped below 60 degrees here in Georgia, and are now officially in sweater season.
My sweaters have been hanging in my closet all sad, and, WHY AREN'T YOU WEARING US SHERRI? WE ARE SO CUTE.

Let's face it, before you have kids, a stomach virus is just an excuse to lay around and watch the Housewives without guilt.
After you have kids, you get to vomit into a trashcan while holding your 8 year old's hair back so she can puke into the toilet.
(Jk, she missed the toilet and vomited all over her bed. Duh.)

And YOU get an Anthro Day! And YOU get an Anthro Day! And YOUUUUUUUU GET AN ANTHRO DAY!
(You'll have to pay for it yourself, of course. But you still get one.)

Sorry for the radio silence around here this week, y'all. As I mentioned in my last post, Monday was our 13th anniversary. And guess how we celebrated? With ginger ale and a stomach bug. #ROMANCE
Ahem.

When you first meet your person, everything is romantic, perfect, and shiny. Her emotional outbursts and shopping habits are ADORABLE and QUIRKY. His borderline hoarding and unnatural love of Pearl Jam are SO CUTE. You will obviously love each other forever and ever and ever, while never fighting, and living in a rosy bubble for the rest of your life.

Really this post should be titled BUYING all the red. Because that is what I'm doing.
(Unless you are John, in which case I am not.)
Y'all. I am obsessed with the color red. And not just because I went to THE BEST school in the SEC (#godawgs), although it helps. If you want to update your wardrobe this fall, but without spending a zillion dollars to do, then incorporate some red.

If you've been a reader for any amount of time, y'all know that I value authenticity in a big way. For example, I will never tell you that I'm a great, Pinterest-y, fun mom. I'm NOT. I'm the mom that forgets school pictures and buys all her snacks from the (non organic) grocery store. And, I won't ever tell y'all that a leather miniskirt is my go-to outfit for, well, probably ANYTHING. Unless "leather miniskirt" is code for ACTUAL SWEATPANTS. (Which is my go-to outfit for everything.)

take your kids to new york, they said. It'll be FUN they said.
(To be fair, it WAS really fun. Until it wasn't. But that wasn't NYC's fault. We'll get to that.)
John and I had the idea to take the kiddos to the city for AG's birthday. We surprised them on a Thursday morning, and they were thrilled. Since this is my first time taking kiddos to NYC, I thought I would share a little roundup of the things we did RIGHT. And then some MJOR PARENT FOULS.

I know lots of y'all probably think that all I do is swan around Nordstrom and Anthro, letting them take WAY TOO MUCH of my money. And I'll tell you the same thing I tell John: it's MY WORK. DON'T JUDGE ME. RUDE.
(jk, I judge myself for finding a way to make shopping my job. #itsfine)

let's be honest and call white booties what they really are: A TOTAL STATEMENT.
(They are NOT, as some people like to refer to them, MY GO-GO BOOTS.)
(You know who you are.)

It's fall y'all. And if you follow pretty much any blogger on social media, then you know how we love us some fall. Fall brings all the good things: PSLs, NEW TV, college football, and buying up ALL THE BOOTS without experiencing guilt and shame.
(Jk. Of course I experience guilt and shame. That's what therapy is for.)
