Happy end of October! WHERE did this month go? If you could find it and let me know, that would be great. But with it now being November that means technically we can start getting into the holiday season. Hehehe
I'm ALL in this year. Celebrating and planning early -- let's do this! But don't worry, I'm not one of those people who just looks past Thanksgiving, oh no no. A major food holiday? Yes please!

Is it crazy or is it crazy that I'm posting about the HOLIDAYS?! I mean I know we're still in October but the spirit bug has really hit me early this year. Already counting down the days until Thanksgiving and starting to plan out Christmas shopping.

Who's with me??

I finally went pumpkin picking and I loved it (as you'll see from the photos below). Not only did we pick out some amazing pumpkins this late in the season, we also carved them later that day. It was like we were kids again and it was awesome.

I've never been as obsessed with fall as I am this year. The trees are at peak color, the weather is cool but not cold and the sun in shining. We were driving around this past weekend and -- wowza -- were the trees just so spectacular. I feel like this is the first true fall I can remember in a while.

One of the best parts of fall is finally getting to transition your closet for cooler temperatures. I've officially made the switch from tank tops to sweaters, open-toe shoes to boots and I'm actually really excited about it!

Not going to lie... this week did not fly by quickly at all. Had a lot of ups and quite a bit of downs but if nothing else it just reminds me to tell those around me how much I love them and to call my parents more! They seem to make everything so much better (always). How did they become such great people?!

We decided to try out the whisper challenge and it was SO fun to do. I had to cut the whole video down because we played it for half an hour! Check it out below or here on YouTube.

Update to my dating profile: Krista Robertson enjoys long walks on the beach clay shooting, a nice glass of wine off-roading in top-of-the-line Land Rovers, and great company and wearing Barbour.

I don't have a dating profile but if I did, I just imagine that's how it would read. I was lucky enough to be invited for the full "Barbour Experience" with the Barbour team and some fabulous brand influencers (magazine editors, bloggers, personalities -- you name it!) up to the Orvis Sandanona Shooting Grounds and boy WAS IT FUN.

We had so much fun in San Fransicso and half of our time there was just finding new places to eat. The food selection there isn't as amazing as NYC (I mean, nothing is) but it was definitely impressive! But my favorite spot during our time there? Nopa.

Is it me or did this week just fly by? The weather is officially cool daily here so I think it's safe to say we're in fall territory. Now if the leaves would just start to change colors in the city and stay like that till spring, that would be great. Anyone else hoping winter is a quick one?
Let's recap my week!

One of my favorite places in Chelsea is The Meatball Shop. It holds a lot of special memories for me for a variety of reasons but also has some really, really good food (why I keep coming back)! Who knew I would like meatballs so much.

I have a confession to make and it's a messy one. Well, technically I'm the messy one but still! I might have one of the messiest roommates of all time: my cat! Talk about hair everywhere. Am I right, fellow cat ladies?

Can we just take a moment to talk about the fact that it's OCTOBER?! It's that crazy to anyone else but me? Where has the time gone? I had such a fun (but stressful) week I'm excited to head to Atlanta this weekend to spend time with the fam bam.

I get to meet my newborn niece for the first (!!) time and I start to cry just thinking about it. But once I get back (hopefully on time due to this hurricane) it's going to be ALL baseball for the month. Postseason is almost here and I'm so excited!!
