the little things

Today I am posting 3 random things, though they aren't the most important by any stretch of the imagination, they are three things I am enjoying today... And I guess that means they are bringing me a little extra JOY.

Poppy King lipstick by Jcrew

I love how I can have on no other make up and put this sheer red lip color on and it gives me an instant lift, the color is the perfect red for everyone! It is available when in stock, in the Jcrew stores. It has been sold out every time I would pop in to the store. When my friend Gretchen and I were in this Sunday it was there! I didn't even want to try it on since I had seen it on every model in their catalogue, I was already sold. My friend got one too, and she has gotten numerous compliments already... Yay for the little things..

Afternoon iced coffee, with your left over morning pot you never finished

Super simple to make and a delightful pick me up. A cup of ice, then half your cup filled with your left over pot from the morning, top it with almond milk, or whatever milk you choose, and a tablespoon or more of agave syrup. Stir. It's amazing and such a great use of your wasted coffee that never got used. There is 25% of your daily calcium and vitamin D in almond milk plus it is low fat. Not a bad little treat!

Pumpkin farms

They are such a great fun little outing for the kids and adults in the fall. There are more than I can count out here in the Pacific Northwest, and seem to be plenty in every area. Helps keep the kids entertained while waiting for Halloween.

Reagan's cute friends from the trip we took with his preschool.

Love the brother love!

My favorite picture of the day, Ethan with a band aide on his forehead just because he likes it. But he was so proud of his score for the day!
