Turn it Up Tuesday #58

Welcome to the 58th week of Turn It Up Tuesdays!!! 

We're so happy to have you here this week - and thanks for the amazing posts last week! 

I hope this week finds you all well. I have had a blast co-hosting Turn it Up Tuesdays for the last 2 months. I am not sure what I will do with myself from here on out! I have made some great connections, met some really awesome people and made some fantastic new friends. Thank you for visiting with me!

Happy Halloween!!! The holiday is right around the corner, and it makes me realize that the year has flown by! What are you doing for Halloween? Going to any parties? Dressing up your kids in those adorable costumes? Share them all with us this week - present or past!

Link up your funny stories, DIY posts, recipes, mommy moments -- anything at all, as long as it is family-friendly. We want to laugh, be entertained, be inspired, and have a good time!

Thanks so much to everyone that joins us each week and makes this blog hop the best that it could be!

IMG_08071-e1412980703318
Laura chose Nature Mini Wreaths: Love Inspired from Simple Nature Decor. "I love the simple and adorable idea. This could easily be made with the family or that special time when Mom needs to hide and just be creative. Bringing Nature and memories always inspires me as a Blogger to want to be even more creative."
10-Reasons-to-Stop-Breastfeeding-long
April chose 10 Reasons to STOP Breastfeeding from MBA SAHM. "Butterfly turned ONE this week, and to stop nursing has been wearing on my mind a lot lately. There are so many things that are easier with breastfeeding. That said, things are getting more difficult as she's teething and using me to soothe herself."
Easy-Owl-Banner
Jillian chose Dollar Store DIY: Easy Owl Banner from Table Decor Ideas. "I chose this post because I am looking for new fun ways to decorate for Halloween outside of pumpkins and skeletons. This is perfect!"
Spiced-Apple-Cupcakes-5
Cathy chose Spiced Apple Cupcakes with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting | Apple Recipes from A Simple Pantry. "Karly creates the ultimate fall sweet treat! A moist apple cupcake topped with a creamy caramel cream cheese frosting with an added M&M on top! This cupcake is the perfect mouthful of fall flavors!"
rh insp 2
Meghan chose How to Create An RH Baby Room without Spending the Money from Seeking Lavender Lane. "I want to redo my daughter's room soon as she transitions to a toddler bed, but I already redid her nursery once so definitely can't afford another major redecoration! This post gives great ideas on how to decorate affordably and still give you the look you are going for."
Candy-Overload-Magic-Bars-15
Stacey chose Candy Overload Magic Bars from Annie's Noms. "OMG! Those look absolutely amazing! I am definitely getting some sweetened condensed milk the next time I go to the store! Maybe even 2 cans, so that I can make a version with nuts, all for me! LOL! Thank you so much for sharing!"

Bernadyn chose Marriage and Money from Trusting the Journey of Motherhood. "I think this post about separating your finances in a marriage is a smart and practical way to keep the marriage more balanced. It may not work for everyone but then again, it may be a great way for some couples to be happier with how the finances are handled in their marriage or partnership instead of only one person having the burden of handling all the financial obligations."
couponer-featured-725x1024
Jessica chose Couponing: My New Addiction // How I Saved 50% on My Groceries from Mommie and Wee. "I've been wanting to try out couponing for awhile. It's kinda hard in San Antonio becuse the only main grocery store is HEB, but once she mentioned WalMart, I was like, huh?!? Maybe I need to start looking into couponing again and pick up the Sunday paper! Thanks for the tips :)."
Painting-white-mini-boos-with-chalk-when-you-cant-find-the-real-thing-1024x682
Tina chose Painted White Mini Boos from Woods of Bell Trees. "I love this craft. Nice, easy to make and so elegant. I'd love to have them all year around!!"
Mobile-Mystery-Shopping-by-beingawordsmith
Sonya chose 3 Mobile Mystery Shopping Apps That Pay Cash from Being a Wordsmith. "This is a great post for anyone looking to make cash from mystery shopping. Kimberly does a great job of explaining how each app works. Along with listing the pros and cons for each app."
Floral collage canvas 3
Elina chose Flower Collage Canvas from Sum of Their Stories. "I love this project because she takes you step by step on how she created it. The floral papers she used were beautiful and I love that she used a black marker to draw an offset outline around the petals. It really gives the completed project a touch of whimsy."
TODDLERS-3-200x300
Natasha chose 7 Things You Don’t Get Warned About When You are the Parent of a Toddler from Mum-bo-jumbo.com. "Love this post! All the points are so true - no one can truly warn you about what to expect with a toddler, but sometimes I wish someone would've warned me how crazy it is!"
how-to-get-away-with-murder
The post with the most clicks is 5 Reasons Why You Must Watch How to Get Away With Murder from Being a Wordsmith.
