Seriously, is it Winter Already? Fall Updates!


I woke up this morning and it was snowing. Yes, I know it's November, but really? I'm not ready yet. 
Part of my mind still thinks it's August. 

Since time is flying by, I need to do a little fall recap for you.


1st day of school.
Hayden returns to preschool but it's Tristan's first day of school. Yippee!







A little visit with my Grandpa.
I'm not sure who's cuter.








My aunt and uncle own a farm in East Lyme, Connecticut- Scott's Yankee Farmer. 
The boys got to do a little pumpkin picking.







Some gourds for mama: 




and Tristan got to 'drive' a tractor.




How cute is this?





almost there. lol!






some QT with the cousins:



Then it was time for Halloween! Too bad Tristan is acting like an angry dog :(








And a little fall foliage around the StyleBurbia casa:


























What were you up to this Fall?

Next up, Thanksgiving and Christmas, lots of food, warm blankets, hot chocolate and logs in the fireplace.

Are you looking forward to the colder weather (for those of you lucky to spend the winter in a warm locale, I am jealous. boo.)?

xo,
Ris

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall....and dressers.. and tables.. and..

I'm a BIG fan of mirrors.  I think buying an amazing mirror can take a space from being ho-hum to over-the-top .  I also really love mirrored furniture, especially tables.  Here are some of my current favs.  Now, I know some of these are pricey, but we're talking inspiration here.  If these are out of range for you, you can always try a similar style at a discount home store like Home Goods.  Do you have a favorite store where you can always pick up great home decor? I think these would look great on either side of my bed Pottery Barn Park Mirrored Bedside Table or these Sarried Astrid Lamp Table (just sold out on Joss & Main) This would look lovely in my 'dressing room' in my new house Pottery Barn Park Mirrored Tower Dresser I MUST have this mirror Horchow Knot Mirror Talk about a MAJOR statement Horchow Janice Minor White Porcupine Quill Mirror Very similiar to the Horchow knot mirror Amanda Erin- Michael mirror-Currently

What are you Reading?

It's raining in NYC, which is quite welcome considering how extremely hot it has been the last few weeks. Days like these make me feel like staying home and curling up with a good book and a cup of coffee.  In fact, our new house has a porch (wish list item), so I'm looking forward to spending some time out there under a blanket with a cool breeze blowing over me with a glass of wine, book in hand (not sure how I can do this with two toddlers running around).  Wow! I'm really getting into this porch scenario.  You can tell I've obviously thought about this.. A LOT. This would be a good place to curl up.  Love the grey and yellow theme to this window seat/reading nook     Insert me here:  Image via Pinterest via google      I usually like to read something serious then follow that book up with more light-hearted reads.  A few years ago, I read War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy.  I have a thing for literature by Russian novelists.  With

Weekend in Review

Hello there! It's been waaaaay tooooo long. So sorry for my absence, but my nanny/babysitter had a death in the family and had to go home for a week.  All of our back up babysitters-aka our parents- were out of the country, traveling for business or extremely busy at the office and therefore could not provide their usual assistance.  Luckily for us, hubby's company has emergency daycare that you can use 3 weeks out of the year for situations just like this.  I really have to take my hat off to parents who schlep their kiddos every day to daycare, summer camp, grandma and grandpa's house etc. before they head into the office.  Let me just say it ain't easy getting those little guys dressed and fed and out the door early in the morning (of course I have to do this on weekends, but there isn't the pressure of being late for work).  The boys ended up having a great time and enjoyed taking the subway every day, so somehow we survived.  Oh- and most important
