Everything Fall For Erika

We are officially a month into my favorite time of year. As anyone who knows me or has been following this blog for a while knows, September through December are my favorite months of the year. I love all the holidays, weather, fashion, food, events, all of it! It makes me so happy and makes me smile. Here are a few things that I have been doing to get in the fall mode.

1. Fall Decor
 My mom put this center piece together for our dinning room 
and I am in love! 

2. Flannel 
I have had a recent obsession with flannel. I love wearing them with jeans,
paired over a favorite tee, tied around with waist for jacket later, or under a sweater
for a pop of pattern. There are just so many styles and I love how cozy and wonderful they are. 

3. Fall Coffee Flavors, Fall Colors, and Beautiful Country Views 

I am a coffee LOVER and I drink it all year round in many flavors and styles.
When fall comes around my go to drink is a hot caramel mocha or a splash of caramel/vanilla 
creamer. This tree pictured is outside my window and is pretty all year round. Sometimes before school I stand by my window and admire the beautiful place where I live.

4. Cozy Corners for Netflix, Reading or Daydreaming 

I got inspired for this little piece of heaven from a youtube blogger Rosie Ziegler. I
I have had this spot in my room for a while and it has mainly been used to hid things. So a few blankets later, lovely throw pillows, your current reads, a pumpkin for style and sweet smelling candles...... Voila! A perfect corner to relax at the end of the day with your favorite TV show, a wonderful book or a cup of tea to unwind. 

5. CANDLES!!!!
This one makes me really happy. I am a candle freak! I love how they add homeyness to a room. 
The amazing scents they come in and their lovely flicker and glow. Oooo, it makes me so happy. These are some I picked up from Bath and Body Works. Pumpkin Pecan Waffle is my favorite, the others are Pumpkin Apple and Caramel Pumpkin Apple. 

Fall is the best! Some other things I love is football, how excited the guys in my home get about hunting, fires in the fireplace, mom's soups when I come home from a long day and curling up in a quilt. Love the little things right? 

Comment what your favorite fall things are, or maybe a recent obsession, what new TV shows are you into? Fall treats, activities? What do you do? I can't wait to hear all your cooking, decor, fashion and fun ideas you have!

The One Where I Graduate

Hey, Everyone! This girl did the thing, she got her diploma. Not without the help of some dear people. My teachers are incredible through the last few years at the co-op I have worked with me and taught me so many valuable and cherished lessons.  I have been blessed with a loving and hard-working Mother who has spent countless hours preparing and teaching lessons. She has spent time discussing, researching and praying over the best direction she needed to take with my education. My parents have encouraged me through any adventure I chose to embark on. They never let me believe I couldn't achieve whatever I set out to do. They taught me that hard work would always be rewarding, to always do best, and by example, they taught me to put others first and give when I can.  My brother James is truly the best brother in the world. He is my sidekick in life and we have had countless adventures together. He has shown me to accept whatever happens and be happy at the moment. He has taug...

The One With All The Updates

Erika and Madame Blueberry   The last few months have been crazy busy, full of adventures and the like. It would take forever to tell you everything that has happened, but I will attempt an overview. Since April I was a stage manager to an amazing show called The Lonesome West . I learned so much from the actors I worked with and the experience to produce theatre in the back of a records shop.  Soon after the show closed I took my finals, loaded up my Cadillac (named Madame Blueberry) and left Ellensburg for the summer. I only had a few days to unload my college boxes and reload Madame Blueberry for my summer job. Camp Lutherhaven  Camp Lutherhaven! What an incredible, God arranged summer. There were days I wondered if I was up for the job, but the people I met and the experiences we shared were irreplaceable. When I was at college I made a comment to my mom that all I had to focus and worry about was me and how easy it was to only be concerned about myself...

What Has Kept Erika From Blogging???

After the first night of shows I was so close to getting February's post in February. I sat down to write this so many times, but with a million papers to write for school the idea of writing more at the end of the day seems absolutely impossible. Which is depressing because I love writing. However, the homework has slowed down, relatively, I mean finals are around the corner. Anyway, I did want to update you on a few awesome things that have been happening in my life. Artsy photo that I took in the dressing room before the show.  First Distracted, the first CWU show I was apart of, went up in January. It went really well I had such an amazing, supportive cast, director, and crew. My amazing, wonderful, family and some family friends came to see me. It was an incredible experience and the topic of the show was one that reached a ton of people. I learned to play a character that was completely opposite of who I am and different from anyone I know which was learning exp...
