What’s Up Wednesday: October

Stephanie Spring Lifestyle

What we’re eating this week:My homemade granola. I’ve made it two weeks in a row and we’ve been having it for breakfast or just to snack on. 🙂 

What I’m reminiscing about:How this guy has been dancing in heaven for almost a year now. 

What I’m loving:

Eric and I both use the YouVersion Bible App for our devotions once and awhile to switch things up. It’s free to download and super easy to use. This month I started the plan, “30 Days of Heartwork.” The idea is to live different for 30 days and it may just change the way you live forever. It’s extremely powerful and written beautifully.

What we’ve been up to:

We have been trying to slow down any chance we can get. 🙂 

What I’m dreading:

Okay, here’s the deal. I loathe taking my make-up off at night. It drives me nuts. I love my F.A.B. cleanser, and coconut oil, but I’m also open to switching it up just for my nighttime routine of removing make-up. Any tips or tricks that anyone has to make it quick and easier?!

What I’m working on:

I’m giving away some of my favorite things in December! (Like that lovely book above!) ;)Keep an eye out for them for your chance to win!

What I’m excited about:

ALL THINGS HOLIDAY! I love the Holidays so much! 

What I’m watching/reading:

I watched this movie last week and cried through almost all of it. It made me want to call up my entire family and have them over. Such a good reminder of what matters. 

I’m slowly reading my way through this book and absolutely love her insight and perspective. 

What I’m listening to:

This song.

What I’m wearing:A really random assortment of teacher attire, casual, and classic looks.

What I’m doing this weekend:

Get ready…we have a wedding! As if that’s new news around here. 😉

What I’m looking forward to next month:

Being with family for Thanksgiving. 🙂

What else is new:

Each day has been bringing it’s own joys as well as challenges. This is definitely a season of change but I am SO thankful I am surrounded by the people I love. 

Bonus Question: What is your favorite Halloween memory/picture/tradition?

One year I begged and begged my Mom for a specific costume (I forget what it was now) and the second I put it on I started crying because it itched so bad! I took it off within a few minutes and wore “regular clothes” to trick or treat. ha! I don’t think that’s a favorite but it’s definitely memorable. 😉 

You can always follow me on Instagram, Bloglovin, Pinterest, or e-mail with any questions or comments!

Have the best Wednesday!
