Chopping the tree

Moving onto... winter! I'm excited. Thankfully we had an awesome autumn, and it lasted all the way through November. But when December hits, I'm ready for snow, winter, and holiday cheer! We ended up chopping our tree down right before the snowy winter wonderland hit. It was nice for the convenience of chopping down a tree, and hauling it around, but it's always so pretty when it's snowy outside. Every year, we drive out to Hart Christmas Tree Farm. It's our tradition now, so I can't imagine going anywhere else. They have so many different types of trees to choose from, and you can either get one pre-chopped, or head into the fields to chop your own! We always chop our own, of course. It's way more fun that way!

December fields

Onto the FINAL post of autumn... so sad! I loved autumn this year, and I'm so thankful it lasted all the way through November and even a little bit into December! We shot these photos right at the beginning of December before the temperatures dropped like crazy and we were hit with a mountain of snow! I loved being able to get a chance to wear these strappy wedges from DSW before I had to put them away for the season. They are my new favorite! I can't wait to bring them back out again in spring. A surefire way to jazz up a pretty basic outfit (jeans and turtleneck combo, which is one of my faves right now.)

Golden cattails

Ah, I'm so behind! We're currently in a gorgeous winter wonderland, but I still have fall content to get up on the blog. I feel like I can't post any of my winter pictures until I get caught up! So we'll be living in autumn still this week. Is this month flying by for anyone else? I can't believe we're just two weeks away from Christmas. It's gone by SO fast. This outfit is what I wore on Thanksgiving! We were in Muskegon having dinner at my Dad's house, and we stopped down to the boardwalk by the lake to snap a few pictures! Love this golden light so much.

Mission Point Lighthouse

After we did a little shopping in Traverse City, we decided to check out Old Mission peninsula for our afternoon! I knew I wanted to hit up the lighthouse first, and then make our way back and visit as many wineries as we could. We’ve been to this lighthouse before in the summer, but to be honest, I much preferred it in autumn. It was so pretty, and the water was so blue! Plus, we actually got the chance to walk up to the tower this time (so thankful they were still open this late in the season!) and we were the only ones in the lighthouse. I loved it!

Shopping in Traverse City

During our trip to Traverse City, we tried to squeeze as much in as we could! We wanted to make sure we hit up a bunch of unique stores for a fun guest post on the Traverse City blog on holiday shopping, so be sure to head there and check that out! I chatted a little bit about each of my favorite places, so if you're looking to do a little shopping in that area, I've got you covered. We explored a bunch of places I've never visited before, and tried some new restaurants to us too. It was a perfect day spent up north. I just love Traverse City!

High Rollaway

A couple of weekends ago, Eric and I headed up to Traverse City for a wonderful weekend full of all my favorite things... scenic sights, lighthouses, wine tasting, delicious food, and a comfy hotel room watching movies in bed. It was perfect. On Friday, I got out of work, and we headed straight up north. I recently heard about this place called the High Rollaway, and knew we had to check it out, so that was first on our list. It was so pretty. I would definitely recommend if you're in the area!
