I received an At Home gift card and compensation for this post.  All opinions are my own.

Back a few weeks ago, we ventured to At Home for the first time for some fall decorating.  Since then, I’ve been itching to go back, especially to start on our Christmas decorating!  So many beautiful items and so many possibilities!  Today, my husband and I ventured down to the Mall of Georgia area and back to At Home.  We went up and down every single isle in the store and picked out the perfect things to decorate our house this Christmas season.

We bought an outdoor mat, 3 decorative pillows, table runner, a candle and initial candle holder, the coolest decorative train, and some things to make the train more festive.  I’m so thrilled with our selections and even more thrilled at how they look around the house.

For starters, we put the candle and candle holder in our guest bathroom.  It definitely makes a difference from the bare counters we had before.

Next, we put the doormat by our front door.  I can’t get over how cute it looks!

My favorite of all was the train.  I looked at it several times as we went through the At Home store and I ended up splurging for it and I’m so glad I did!  It is perfect to go on our farm table and fill with festive goodies.

The train was absolutely perfect to complete the setting along with the new At Home Christmas Tree Table Runner!  So pleased with how it turned out.  Lastly, we switched out our couch pillows for the festive Sweater Pillow and the Joy To The World pillow from At Home.  Both look lovely and complete our decorations until we can get the Christmas Tree up.

If you haven’t been to At Home, I definitely recommend visiting soon especially if Christmas decorating is on your to-do list.  It’s a huge store filled with decorative items at a fraction of the price you’d find elsewhere. We actually saw a few items that we had considered buying at a different store and it was a third of the price we had seen elsewhere for the same thing!   At Home is definitely the place to visit when you want to decorate your home on a budget.

It’s Monday again!  This weekend I spent most of the time in the car running the kids to activities and festivals.  We had a great time until we ended up at Urgent Care with the 2 year old.  Another ear infection.  Yesterday was my oldest son’s birthday and so we had some family over to celebrate.  It was a nice time!  Looking forward to the rain today and the cooler weather this week.  Hope you all have a great one!

Sorry, no picture this week.  Honestly I haven’t taken many pictures at all this week because it’s been so busy.  It seems like each week is going faster than the previous one.  This week, we learned that my husband’s car was totaled from the hit and run he was involved with.  Someone hit him and left the scene.  So now we are on the hunt for another decent car for him to use.

The kids are doing great.  They spent Saturday playing with their cousins and we even managed to get a date night in on Friday night.  Woo hoo!  Here’s what is on the menu for this week:

Monday: Leftovers or Make Your Own

Tuesday: One Pan Mexican Quinoa 

Wednesday: Instant Pot Chicken and Brown Rice Soup, cheese toast for the kids

Thursday: Chicken Enchiladas, salad

Friday: Pizza
