Autumn Home Tour


This year I went for a more earthy look for my fall decor. My obsession with pink sunflowers took over. And I used a combo of whites, pinks, peaches and dark teal. Although I use fake flowers and plastic pumpkins from Michael's, I balanced it out with ceramic and glass decor. Keeping the overall look a modern traditional boho theme.

I hope you enjoy looking at my home as much as I loved decorating it!


Pink sunflower centerpiece how-to here: 


The wooden fall ornaments and the ceramic dark teal pumpkins were Target finds!


I kept it simple and pretty on the buffet table. The white pumpkin branch is from Magnolia, found in Target. As well as the wooden leaf ornament.


My entrance, I also keep simple only adding the white pumpkin branch and wooden acorn ornament.



I absolutely love my pink sunflowers and ombre pumpkins in the living room!




Pumpkin ombre how-to here:



I kept the other side of the living room simple, adding only a peach knit blanket 
(a consignment store find), and a wooden acorn ornament on the coffee table.




I added Autumn to my kitchen by putting a pink sunflower in my dark blue glass jar and a wooden pumpkin ornament hanging with the copper mugs.


I love how the colors balance each other out and it feels very earthy in here!


Last, but not least... I added a vase of pink sunflowers to the top of my faux fireplace.
This beautiful cream clay plate and vase was another Magnolia find in Target.


 Thanks for visiting! Happy Autumn!

Anna Safija, 5 years old


My sweet Anna Safija... the minute you were born, you changed all our lives for the better!
You brought so much happiness and laughter into our lives that. For me, you brought that incredible sweetness of being a girly-girl. You love tea parties, playing with your dollhouse, dresses, flowers... everything is 'pretty'... just as your mama would say.  That filled my heart! For Daddy, you gave him a bond between parent and child that brings tears to my eyes. Your love for each other is so strong, it's as if you were one. He is your everything and you are his everything. I don't mind losing my spot as his number one girl to you! For Jake, you are his saving grace. It was hard for him to have an older sister with Autism that wasn't interested in play-time. You came along and his days were suddenly filled with tons of imagination and endless laughter. You made him happy, you brought him sunshine! For Katelyn, you made it easy for her to take care for you. You gave her a new role that made her feel special and needed. You respect her and love her so much, I know you fill her heart. She feels good being your little mama and your sisterhood is beautiful. I will never forget the loving way you look up to her. I don't even want to imagine life without you... you are amazing!

My Anna... you are feisty, hilarious, strong, caring, sweet and smart. Thank you for bringing so much sunshine and laughter into our lives... we love you so much!! HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY!!!!~*

LET'S TAKE A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE...



 When you loved to throw your food on the floor and laugh when I gave it back to you.




Your favorite person in the whole world...daddy!


Your first ballet class!


When you loved to squish your brother while he was playing video games.



That time you smushed my lipstick all over your lips and said "don't be mad mama"!


Your first time bowling...


The endless laughter between you and your brother!


Jakie reading you a story...


One of your favorite things to do...sit in a box.




Putting stickers all over daddy...


Sister love...


So beautiful when you sleep!


Thank you for being you!


xoxo, Mama
