This & That: Fall Beauty, Christmas Decorating, and Finding Fitness Motivation

Welcome back to KMB! I hope everyone enjoyed my Let’s Look and my CWLW: Gifts for Men posts this week. I really enjoyed writing both of them. I used so much brainpower doing those two posts, I decided today needed to be simple, so we are doing another THIS & THAT. 

 

These posts are when I share just a little bit about the this’ and the thats in my life. I hope you enjoy.

Fall is stunning right now. I know in a few weeks the trees will officially be bare, so I’m taking time to soak in all the autumn beauty while it lasts.

My halls are officially decked! It was a little overwhelming to start the decorating process. First, I had to take down the fall decor. Then, you have to clean the house. Finally, we carried up all the Christmas decor. It is an all day event. I had lots of little helpers, some were happy to help, others were not so joyful taking things to and from the storage room to the living room. 

 

Here are some pictures of the finished product.

It is really hard being a doodle. 

I love the Amazon tree that I bought for our bedroom. It is so beautiful and cozy.

I have been on the struggle bus with my fitness and nutrition. I need help- what is something you do to get back on track with working out and eating right? I did 75 Hard last winter/spring. I have never been so dialed in, but if I am being honest, I have been a little off ever since. When 75 Hard ended, mentally, it felt like only doing one workout wasn’t good enough. I would have a cookie and struggle with binge eating more. I’m not sure how to really explain it, but I’ve just been “off” in these areas. 

 

I don’t think I want to do 75 Hard again, but maybe I need a new challenge to jumpstart my motivation. I love that challenges give me a sense of purpose and a plan. 

 

Whatcha got for me?? HELP.

Martin and I bought some new furniture prior to our big family Halloween reunion. We are loving our new pieces.


We took our existing LoveSac couch, changed the fabric and added additional pieces. It looks great in our basement with our new media cabinet and lamps!

We also bought a new sofa, chair, and coffee table for upstairs. We have ZERO complaints so far about any of it.

These cutie neighbor besties dressed like twinkies this week. You can tell by this picture that they were pretty pumped about it! This Nike set is so adorable! I couldn’t find this gold one to link, but I did find a black one on nike.com!

There are 42 days until Christmas, y’all! So many memories to make. Let me know any Christmas ideas you have for me on the blog! I’d love your thoughts.

 

That wraps up This & That for November 2025. Thank you for stopping by KMB. Come back tomorrow for FRIDAY FAVS.
