Willis Farm

ALSO on our honeymoon, Huck took me to a pumpkin patch. we arrived before it opened {oops} but the owner said since we were already there she'd let us go in. she gave us little pink slips for the scavenger hunt in the corn maze. she said that if we completed the hunt we'd win a candy bar. oh boy! at that point, i realized maybe we are getting too old for this... then again, maybe not. after we went through the corn maze, we went to pick our pumpkins. 

^^^ kissin' in the corn maze ^^^

^^^ i found one! ^^^

^^^ nevermind! too heavy ^^^

^^^ he wanted to get a jump on carving his ^^^

thank you Willis Farm for letting us sneak in early for corn maze scavenger hunts and pumpkin picking. did any of you go to a pumpkin patch or corn maze this year. if so, i wanna see. send me your links.

xoxo, kerri

Thriftin' Thursday || My Favorite Phoenix Thrift Shops & A Thrift Haul Video

HERE are my picks for best thrift shops in Phoenix, AZ!

Goodwill Lake Pleasant & 83rd Ave: this is the Goodwill that is closest to my house. you can find me cruisin' these aisles about 3 times a week.

Goodwill 16th Ave & Happy Valley Road: i found a cart full of my favorite sweaters here

Goodwill 7th St & Union Hills Dr.: i never not find anything here

Goodwill Scottsdale Rd & Thunderbird: this is right down the street from my work and i frequent it on my lunch hours when i need a quick thrift fix.

Savers Scottsdale: this is where you find the designer stuff.

Savers Deer Valley: my old stomping grounds & where i first started thifting! this place is another one where you can't leave empty handed.

Savers Peoria: where i buy a lot of my home goods.

you probably can tell by the above list that i am a Goodwill and Savers fan. i know of other thrift stores around the valley but i seem to always head straight for one of these locations. i'd like to explore more so if you know of any other good thrift stores (Goodwill, Savors or otherwise), feel free to leave them in the comments, i'd love to hit them up before i make the move to The Potato State.

happy thriftin'

Lately

... i have been enjoying my new role as wife & homemaker! i am buried up to my nose in boxes but it's all good. i am slowly going through every room and making it feel like home, combining mine & my husbands styles. city girl meets cowboy is going strangely well. 

... one of my jell nails fell off somewhere in the house so when i hear the dog choke or my husband say "babe, what is that?!?" FOUND IT!

... i've never had to constantly wear sweats and sweaters around my house... i do now.

... i attended the church that Huck attends when he is home and fell in love with it. thank you Jesus for the beautiful body of Bible followers. feels like home.

... meeting and making connections with some great Idaho bloggers and created a facebook page called {dun tah da dah} Idaho Bloggers! if you are a blogger and living in idaho, please join the group here. i am also the newest member of the Idaho Bloggers Guild. woohoo! they like me! they really like me!

...my husband & the dog are still alive so we are doin' good! how are all of you?

xoxo, kerri
