Hello, hello! Happy Monday to you all. I hope you had a great weekend!
![]()
I took a little break from blogging this weekend because I had so much to do. I didn’t even make a dent in everything I had to do though, ah!

I’m not trying to get all religious here, but this is what came up in my bible app the first day I finished volunteering. Crazy, huh?
Luckily we went through phases of being busy and not having anything to do, so I had a chance to read some of my book for one of my classes.
I forgot to post this, but I left an operation beautiful note last week! I’ve always wanted to do that, and Lindsay’s instagram challenge had it listed on one of the days. Love it.
Since James Wilson’s program has three rest days per week, I set them for Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. It felt good to rest, and I know my body thanked me for it.
I did get some yoga in to stretch out. I haven’t done yoga in FOREVER and I really miss it. I need to do it more often.
I also decorated for Halloween! My roommate and I saw this DIY glittered pumpkin on pinterest (of course) so we got crafty and did it. So easy and fun!
I had overnight oats for the first time in forever yesterday morning. I used a bit more yogurt than usual and it was super creamy. I was out of fruit, so I topped it with some leftover sweet potato and cinnamon. Seriously, so good.
Oh, and last but not least… The Gators beat LSU! Enough said
Did you do anything fun this weekend?
Have you ever done a DIY project? Which one?

LOVE that verse in Galatians
Don’t you just flip when verses just randomly pop up and pertain to your exact situation in life?! So cool 


And those glittery pumpkins are SO AWESOME. Teach me your crafting ways!

I seriously love it when I randomly flip open the Bible and come across a verse that echoes my life almost perfectly. That’s so awesome that you’re volunteering at a homeless shelter!

I love those pumpkins! So much easier that all the gutting and carving.
I made wine glasses with the chalkboard paint bottoms from Pinterest. They turned out really well… but I haven’t made anything since!
I love adding random bits of squash or pumpkin to things that don’t normal have it in it. So good! Especially with a little maple syrup or brown sugar. Yum!

I love that bible verse!! And what perfect timing for it!!

and your oatmeal looks really good- when i tried sweet potatoes the first time i didn’t like them (and i’ve only ever had them 1 time since then!) but maybe i’m just preparing them wrong? when i’m home for my long break over christmas i’m planning on experimenting with them a little more!
Julianna @ Julianna Bananna recently posted..A Little Home.
omg try them again! I think you should bake them – so much better
Those pumpkins are awesome! I need to make them. Glitter plus pumpkins are like two of my favourite things;)
Great for you for volunteering! I think its very good to help others out, its something I’ve done for a long time.

What a wonderful thing to be volunteering at the homeless shelter..your soul is definitely appreciating this (like the bible verses tell you so)! Yoga, golden pumpkins and sweet potatoes in your oats?! Gorgeous!! Happy MIMM

And that’s awesome that you volunteer! It sounds cheesy, but it honestly feels so good to do something good for the community.
This weekend was Canadian Thanksgiving so I went home and had turkey dinner with my family, went to the farmer’s market, and finally went apple picking!
