November Family Favorites

November was a super fun month! I celebrated my 11 year wedding anniversary with a mini-staycation, threw my bestie a baby shower and enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday weekend with family.

Happy Anniversary to us! ๐Ÿ™‚

Here’s a look at what my family has been loving this month!

Lauren:
Bath & Body Works Fresh Balsam EVERYTHING!
I started early with this scent since it makes me so freaking HAPPY. I decorated for Christmas mid-November and this candle just screams Christmas. It is a strong Christmas tree smell, people either love it or hate it. For some reason, I am obsessed with this scent and it really brightens my entire mood. I always get the candle, but this year I decided to try the wallflowers version of this as well and it is SO GOOD!

Donnie:
My Target Red Card
A few months back I finally caved and got a Target red debit card. I get 5 percent back for every purchase I make, which can really add up. On top of that, I am on every single Target email list possible, so I was able to know that all their black Friday deals were being offered online early Thanksgiving afternoon. I also love Target’s cartwheel app, so between all of that I have been saving a TON of money on Christmas shopping… so much so that my husband is actually impressed. This is NOT sponsored by Target and I get nothing for writing all this stuff. However, when I asked my hubby for his family favorite, he immediately said the Target card.

Proof that it is what my hubby really said. (& that I REALLY ask everyone in my family what their family favorite is for that month)

Hudson:
Clash of Clans
My son is currently obsessed with this game. He loves telling me all about his village! One night he told me, “Mom when I wake up I will have a brand new bomb shelter.” I was like, “Huh?” Well, apparently he had a man building him a bomb shelter, which takes 7 hours… IN REAL TIME. I have no problem with him playing this game since he is always going over his strategies with me, and I figure that is a good thing.

Since I don’t have a picture of my son playing Clash of Clans, I thought this adorable pic would do.

Mila:
All things art-related
My sweet girl has been LOVING art lately, especially watercolors and dot art. She got a Frozen watercolor kit & coloring book and she will sit there for a good 30-45 minutes painting. She loves showing me her finished works of art!

The mixing of the colors drives me crazy… 

There you go, our favorites from November! What are some things your family is currently loving?

      Seriously, they connect it right to your bank so it is like a debt card, but from target. It also gives you free shipping on every target.com order. I kick myself for waiting so long!

      It is just funny for me since Hudson was NEVER really into art at her age, but she is obsessed. I love it, since I sit with her and color too.

    Sounds great to me! I love B&BW candles – so amazing. I haven't smelled the Balsam one yet! I think my hubby has been playing Clash of Clans, ha ha ๐Ÿ™‚ And I KEEP MEANING to sign up for that Target card – I always forget to bring a check! Sounds like it definitely adds up!
