My Top Instagrams from 2024
2024 was a year of new beginnings. New puppy Wynnie joined me (she also has her own Instagram, shown below @Wynnieontheloose). Got a new job. And made a bunch of new friends. Saw the Aurora.

Pandemic Year 1: October 2020
I love fall. I'm usually planning a ton of activities including haunted houses. But obviously, this year had to stick to more outdoor pursuits. For the first time I want to YA YA Orchard, a small apple orchard outside of Longmont, CO. I had heard about it for years but had no idea where it was. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lili Armstrong (@liliontheloose) I enjoyed walking and viewing their animals, including peacocks, hens, donkeys, and horses. It was such a lovely fall day. That same day we then went on one of the

I think this will sum up my Hauntingly Favorite Month: So I just got an email from a local cemetery asking if I wanted to meet up tomorrow "To Start Planning For the End". I responded with, "Unless you are a Haunted House/Ghost Tour having a laugh with an epic marketing pitch I'm not interested." They responded with "Nope, we aren't haunted, but appreciate your humor. We'll take you off the list." Man they aren't even trying to sell their cemetery well. "Not Haunted" my ass It is also Tessa's favorite month, but that is because she likes to eat

Surprisingly, my dog Tessa didn't make the cut, but a co-worker's cute puppy did. The rest are a nice mix of my interests: Halloween, Museums, Weird Light Up Sweaters, Comedy Shows, and my first ever NFL game! Be sure to check out more here and to follow me!

Fall is my favorite season. Its also Tessa's as she loves to eat leaves: View this post on Instagram It's going to snow tomorrow so made sure Tessa got to do her favorite fall activity: leaf eating. A post shared by Lili (@liliontheloose) on Oct 13, 2018 at 3:07pm PDT What's new this month is that I discovered Bullet Journaling this month. Essentially it's using a journal as a productivity tool with some art thrown in. Of course, that meant many trips to craft stores, and discovering AliExpress (and buying way too many .10 stickers and washi tape.)

September 2018 Recap
September was a busy month! We moved into a new office this month at work. I miss the old 100+ history of our last office, but now I have a view of the mountains from my desk! View this post on Instagram New office! I can see mountains! A post shared by Lili (@liliontheloose) on Sep 4, 2018 at 9:15am PDT Its been years but I made it back up to Estes Park for the Scottish/Highland Festival. I really enjoyed the parade, but the rest of the festival is much smaller than I remember it use to be.

So apparently along with losing weight, not eating Wheat has given me tons of energy. I re-organized my entire house. Let me say that again. I re-organized my entire house! When my sister moved out 2 years ago, I never really put anything back into the spare room. (Partially because I couldn't move furniture by myself.) But now? I HAVE MY OFFICE BACK! When I got this place, I wanted a 2nd bedroom for a massive 11 foot desk for work/craft/tv space. I also wanted my library organized, and my lego closet back. It looks amazing! (Although my dog is

My Top Instagrams from 2017
I'm a bit devastated to learn that the best 9 doesn't take into account multi-photo Instagram posts, so some of my best photos aren't represented here. Alas, that means this wall leans heavily to Halloween with just one dog and travel photo! Be sure to check out more here and to follow me!

Fall and Halloween is my favorite time of the year. So many fun activities! Early in the month I went to Dinos After Dark at the Denver Zoo and saw some amazing pumpkin carvings and dinosaurs! Then in the middle of the month I went to a haunted house with some co-workers. And of course, it wouldn't be Halloween without some kick ass costumes! This year I was Winifred Sanderson from Hocus Pocus! My backup costume was a Jurassic Park Labtech. Recommended Reading Lili on the Loose I love fall events and put together this list of a lot of fun
