So much to be thankful for...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!


I love this time of the year.  The colors of orange, yellow, brown, gold and red surround us.  Candlelight, the smell of leather, spices, comfy sweaters and cozy blankets...these are all my favorite things.  The weather is perfect, the food is delicious...I can't get enough pumpkin!  The grocery store that I shop at currently stocks pumpkin everything!  They even have pumpkin croutons...they're amazing.  My goal is to try everything on their pumpkin list.

We are taking full advantage of fall this year, as it may very well be our last fall here.  So, aside from producing all sorts of mouthwatering smells from the kitchen, we've also stocked up on a bunch of pumpkins to decorate our home.

My son and I created our very own "Thankful Tree" yesterday as well.  We collected a bunch of crazy driftwood branches by the water yesterday morning and although it was a little bit difficult explaining the concept of what it means to be thankful to a two year old, we managed to create a good list of things that we are thankful for.

I wish everyone a wonderful fall and hope that you are able to spend it with the ones that you love most.
