Today I'm linking up with Rachel @ Just Peachy for Top 5 Tuesday! The theme is October Favorites...oooo la la!
1. Flannel Shirts
I absolutely love flannel shirts. I love the look/feel/warmth/everything. I have a couple on my birthday list!2. Pumpkins
I made two trips to the pumpkin patch in October! I went once with SB and our friend, then a second time with family. Besides picking a pumpkin (we ended up with 4 this year), I love getting kettle corn - it's SO DELICIOUS at Sinkland - homemade ice cream (even in the cold), apple cider, finding my way through the corn maze, seeing a world champ pumpkin launcher and taking pictures!| Us with the pumpkin launcher in the background |

3. Football
While I would refer to myself as more of a girly girl, as opposed to a tomboy, I do love sports. Especially watching football. There were many Saturdays in October spent in Lane Stadium, or sitting on my couch cheering during away games! I lovvvvve me some football, especially when it's my Hokies playing!4. Fall Nail Colors
After getting the shellac done, I am convinced it's way better than a regular manicure! No smudges, no chips. Wonderful. However, on my college girl budget, an $8 bottle of O.P.I. is a little more affordable than keeping up with the shellac each month. For October I stuck with a maroon shellac and a light pink shellac. Here are some fall shades I'm looking to get!| Espresso Holiday Glow |

5. Lip Balm/Therapy/Etc
As seen in my blog, I have several lip balms and chapsticks and whatnot. With the October month came chilly temperatures! My lips dry up in 5 seconds, so I definitely need to have more than one chapstick in case I lose one! My favorites are:What are your Top 5 October Favorites? I can't believe it's already NOVEMBER!
This weekend I'm headed to Norfolk to see my brothers - it's big brother's 25th birthday! Thanksgiving is in 23 days. My 21st is in one month and 4 days. Christmas is in one month and 24 days. Momma's birthday is in one month and 25 days. SB's 21st is in one month and 29 days! It's going to be a busy two months, I can feel it...
Quick sidenote: I've seen probably 2 or 3 other blogs titled "Simply Sarah" ... should I keep my blog name or change it? I don't know why it bothers me, I guess just because I don't feel unique anymore! Thoughts?
Happy Tuesday :)
xoxo,
