Prepping for the entertainment season at home

I can’t believe how quickly the holidays are approaching! Before we know it, Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here. Do you host anyone at your home for the holidays? Our families all live nearby, so we don’t have to entertain anyone, but we love having friends over for dinners, wine nights, and of course, movie nights! That’s why we love having our Xfinity internet to stream throughout the entire cozy season. Our house is pretty much the go-to for watching the big game, season finales, and movie nights. We also subscribe to almost every streaming service (Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Prime Video)...haha! So, we can get our hands on pretty much any movie to stream or rent through Xfinity.

Thrifted oversized blazer

Hi friends! Happy November. It’s been a minute since I popped in here! I feel like the end of October just flew… but I’m nicely settling into the slow vibes of November. I’m definitely here for the calm before the storm of the holidays, that’s for sure! So I wore this outfit out to a dinner at Maru. What do you guys think about oversized blazers? I found this one at our local Salvation Army and I love it, but it’s also slightly ridiculous. I think maybe the shoulder pads need to go. 😂 But not sure. We’ll see. But yeah, it was nice to check out Maru — I hadn’t been before! You can see my IG post here for a little peek at their fall features menu. So good!

Fall in Fennville
Fall in Fennville

It’s always been a goal to spend a full fall day in Fennville, so I’m excited we finally made it happen this year! Normally every fall, we head up north, and I wanted to make it a point to spend a full day closeby. Fennville is about 45 minutes from Grand Rapids… so it’s a super easy day trip, and there’s so much to do! We hit up Virtue Cider, Fenn Valley Vineyards, Crane’s Pie Pantry, Pier Cove Park, and ended with dinner at Salt of the Earth. I loved this day… it was so fun to hop around, try a bunch of different (very fall) places, to see the waves roll in at Lake Michigan, and to enjoy an amazing dinner in their little downtown area. Keep reading to hear more about our fall day in Fennville!

A fall barn

Hi there! I was going to start this post with… “man, isn’t this month just flying?” But then I’d be a total broken record, and I can admit that, even though it IS flying! But yeah, we got out and took these photos before the colors really took a turn, so it’s funny that it’s just a small hint of color here… where right now outside it’s full peak color! It’s definitely my goal to get out and take more photos this week and weekend while it’s so perfect outside. But yeah, I threw this outfit together quickly, and ended up liking how it turned out! I was just gifted these olive wide leg pants from Lulu’s — they’re so cute! I’m obsessed. Be sure to head over to Lulu’s to scope out their fall arrivals!

Autumn blueberry fields

Halfway through October already? Why does this month always go so fast… and then March just drags and drags and drags? It’s so unfair. 😂 But I’m trying to hang onto every moment of October and working to knock out all of my autumn bucket list items! Thankfully autumn lasts pretty far into November here (unless we’re blasted with a snowstorm, which isn’t unlikely), but October is just the best for peak color + spooky vibes + those golden warm days. Eric and I headed out to West Olive last week to celebrate our anniversary, pick up our pumpkins for the year, and to go to dinner at one of our favorite places in the town where we got married, so that was a perfect autumn date night!
