Fall Bucket List

Last Night while i was in the check out line at Joanna's buying stuff for the many dream catchers I have to make, it dawned on me that we are more than half way through September and I 
haven't done anything fall related ! The past few years the holidays and season seem to be flying by and 
this year I really want to make the most of it and soak up every second of it. So I spent the 
morning on Pinterest looking for inspiration and making a fall bucket list. ..

Palm Springs (iphone photos)

This past weekend we had our first little couples getaway since the baby has been born! We decided some warm weather and relaxing by the pool was needed, so to Palm Springs we went ! We stayed at the La Quinta Resort and Spa and we literally spent the entire weekend by the pool! We had so much fun spending quality time together with no work or distractions, I honestly recommend every married couple to take the time to leave the work and responsibilities aside and just have a fun little get away together ! It is so good and refreshing for your marriage !

I decided not to bring my camera on the trip because I can get so distracted by taking pictures of everything! So I just brought along the trusty I phone. Here's a little peek into our weekend.

Packing //
Road Trip (every good road trip must consist of in n out!) //
Pool side relaxing//
A fire in 112 degree weather? We're not crazy we had the air blasting so we could enjoy the fire at night! //
Had to check out the infamous Ace hotel, hoping to stay there next time! //

Side note : We have this ridiculous game we play on road trips called "would you rather" where we basically think of the two worst situations possible and ask each other to pick one ! I kind of hate the game and love it at the same time! haha. We always end up laughing and having a good time tho ! What do you guys do on road trips to make the time pass? Half the fun is getting there right?! I always feel like I learn more about my husband with a good few hours in the car!

VINTAGE FLEA MARKET FUN
My friend told me about this cute little flea market that opened up right down the street from my house a few weeks ago and i couldn't believe how amazing it was! If you live in the area you must go! It's called the Lucky St Flea Market in downtown oceanside. Currently it is only opened the last weekend of the month but they are thinking about having it open every weekend! It's just to die for and so reasonably priced! These pictures dont even do justice to how awesome it is.

Friday night my friends Bea and Matt came down from LA and we took a walk at the pier than we got a babysitter and they took us out for pizza and some drinks!

Saturday We got breakfast burritos than took a nice walk at the beach with the protsyuks, later we went to the flea market and than took another walk at the beach (i think by now you know we go on a lot of walks haha) When we were walking there was a truck covered in snow and all the snow fell off his roof so of course we had a snow ball fight ! And Sunday i didn't take many pictures but i had such a great day! We went to church and after got breakfast burritos (again, yikes!) with our friends megan and ben than they all went surfing and i came home and got to filling some dream catcher orders. Than megan and i went to see Safe Haven with some girls from church it was amazing! I want to see it again!
