Wintry days are coming...

Today it was rainy and nasty.  The day turned dark and I was ready to come home and relax in my warm home.  Which is exactly what I'm doing !  :-)

Christmas tree is lit!

Fireplace is on!  

And my nice warm slippers are on my feet!

All is well!  :-)

Of course missing my little snuggle bunnies which would make my house feel complete!  

Imagine my surprise when I saw this...

At the local fair.  I had no idea the inspiration for a blardigan I owned came from these lambs. 

This is by far the most comfortable blardigan I have ever owned and keeps me so warm!

I'll be wearing mine quite a bit this winter.  I can't wait!  :-)

Veterans Day!

What a great day we had yesterday with Veterans Day!  

We attended a parade which was very nicely organized.  No huge gaps which happen often in our town Christmas Parade.  

James and I spent the majority of the day trying to find something to help a skin condition he has on his knee.

James had a minor scratch on his arm that was just bugging him to.  

Then we played pool and ate at a local restaurant.  So very fun!  I love spending time with my son.  He makes me so proud!

Side note~ I tried out a new hat yesterday!  I love it!  It's a quick easy fix to a bad hair day.  

And that's about it!  Back to work today!  

Blessed Wednesday!  :-)

Happy Halloween!

Scariest day of the year, besides my birthday!  Ha!  :-)

The kids had a great time trick or treating although my daughter opted not to wear her costume.  She was supposed to wear a black dress version of little red riding hood.  Hopefully I'll still get a picture of her in it soon.   

My son was a surgeon.  A pretty scary one.

After trick or treating we headed over to the High school football game.  The quality of these pictures is terrible.  We were standing just outside the stadium.  

And that's about it. We got home about 9:30 and we were exhausted.  

On to the next holiday.  Turkey Time!  :-)

Pumpkins everywhere....

Finally pulled out all my fall decor this weekend.  I put a pumpkin here, a pumpkin there...

And a little more...

This pumpkin is one of my very favorites.... 

And of course Yankee Candles pumpkin pie, smells so good. 

And that's about it.  

Fall is one of my favorite seasons.  Cool air, hay rides, pumpkin and apple pie scents.  

If I should die before I wake...

This post sounds so morbid but not intended to by any means.  I just started thinking tonight that if something should ever happen to me how much I would want my kids to know how much I loved them.  They are my world!

My daughter with her crazy glasses.

My sons silly faces.

A moms love would do anything for her children.  Give up her own hopes and desires if it meant bringing happiness to her children.  

I would just hope and pray that they knew how much I loved them, most of all!

This Says my heart completely!

Happy Harvesting!

It's Fall ya'll!  :-)

Cooler days ahead and I couldn't be happier.  

And.....visits to the pumpkin patch!

Glory days of Fall!

I'll leave you with the two pumpkins me and my son picked out.  

 

Happy Halloween!  :-)
