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
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
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!

"Me Time" During The Holiday Season

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Oregon Chai®. As always, opinions and text are all mine!

We’re approaching the time of year where I need to make sure I set aside some “me time” before the holiday craziness kicks in! For me, that especially means, curling up in front of a good holiday movie, in comfy pajamas, with a candle burning, and drinking a cozy warm beverage, like this delicious vanilla chai tea latte. I’ve always ordered chai lattes out and about at coffee shops, but never thought to make my own at home! I picked up Oregon Chai® “The Original” from Meijer last weekend to try it out! It’s perfect because I can create my own concoction using ingredients I love and try different recipes to mix it up a little bit for different seasons. Plus, it’s better for you than other alternatives! Ahem, coffee, ahem.
