Weekend Wonders.

Friday, Hunter & I headed down to Provo to check out Bijou Market.

I have heard so many wonderful things about this incredible Handmade Event and have been DYING to see the all the wonder for myself.

To be brief, it TOTALLY lived up to all my expectations. 

So many talented women here in Utah.

I was so glad to see some of my favorite handmade products there also! 

Baby Mocs from Freshly Picked, AWESOME Designs from Livy Love and ADORABLE bow ties from Kelsy Bang. 

We picked up a few things just to say we bought something. 

Mustache Bib from Vinylicious Designs and Super Cute Earrings from Made By Jewls

I am so looking forward to the next Bijou Market.

Now that I'm not so green about it, there are a few things I will make sure to do next time 

(And I would recommend these for anyone else.)

1. LEAVE THE STROLLER AT HOME. 

(The isles are so packed with wonderful products and people that there is not much room to maneuver a stroller around)

2. BRING CASH.

(The credit line was so long. Part of the reason I walked out with just a few things instead of EVERYTHING I wanted was to avoid the long line. My husband was happy about this but I passed on so many adorable things that SHOULD have come home with me.)

3. MORE CASH.

(Always bring more then you plan to spend. 

There WILL be something you CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT)

4. SCHEDULE.

(We were so looking forward to also seeing the WAFFLE LUV truck and FINALLY getting to taste the deliciousness that everyone is talking about. However, silly me showed up Friday Morning when the truck was scheduled to be there Saturday morning. 

I was devastated... and starving.)

Thanks to everyone who put together this AWESOME event. 

Going down in my books as an ABSOLUTE MUST DO in Utah County.

Saturday Night we headed to check out the new Outlets at Traverse Mountain.

The parking lot was INSANE but we quickly found a spot and started wandering around. 

It is absolutely beautiful up there.

The builders did an awesome job and I love the outdoor roof to protect us Utahans from the chilly winter snow (or in our case on Sat, rain).

We had also gone up to get some winter clothes for Baby H.

I had a good idea of what kinds of clothes I wanted my little man to rock but honestly have such a hard time spending BIG DOLLARS on clothes that he is going to grow out of so quickly. 

Luckily I am not one to settle for cheaper stuff without being able to make sure my kid holds on to his swag (hahaha, yes swag) so when we found some AWESOME deals at The Children's Place (thank you outlets) we went a little crazy.

We bought everything in size 6-9 months to hopefully last him all winter.

(Even longer if those little legs keep up their growing pace)

I think this kid is set for a while.

Unless of course Grandma Shelley finds anything she thinks he CAN'T live without.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Are you ready for Thanksgiving this week?

I can hardly believe the holidays are starting and DECEMBER is almost here! 

You know what that means right?!?

MY BIRTHDAY.

Planning something kind of amazing for the big TWENTY-FIVE.

Just a little excited.
