Hi Friends ~
It's so nice to be back for HHM. It feels like it's been ages! I'm a little late today as my kiddos had school off for an inservice thing, so Annie and I went running around to grab some things we needed. But also to go have lunch together and do some fun shopping too. ;) Girlie time always rocks! Aaron went out and about with friends.
I hope you had a lovely weekend. It was a nice one here. My Mom and I went up the scenic north shore Friday just for fun and a nice lunch. Guess I'm making sure I'm getting my quota for lunches out this month. Lol Saturday we accomplished some things around home and was church. Watched a movie with Hubby. Then yesterday we watched both of our teams lose (boo). Loving being back to football season and everything else Fall. Hope you are too. On to the week ahead...

Breakfast was almond and coconut overnight oats and coffee. Annie picked Applebees for lunch out today
RIGHT NOW I AM:
Listening to Ed Sheeran
AS I LOOK OUTSIDE MY WINDOW
The clouds are getting pretty dark. Working on this in my office and watching my daughter ride her bike on driveway before rain comes. And watching for Hubby to get home from work so it'll be time to get dinner together
AS I LOOK AROUND THE HOUSE:
I love seeing all of my Fall decorations out. They just make me smile and our home is the perfect colors to go with Fall decorating. I think our home is prettiest in Autumn, inside and out

TIP OF THE WEEK:
FROM THE CAMERA:
First, I need to brag up my kiddos. The top is Annie's school pic this year and the bottom is one peek at Aaron's grads!! I can't wait to get the rest soon - eek when did this happen?? I still can't believe we have a senior this year
I've been doing more decorating inside the house. I still need to finish outside. I love this giant mantel to fill with goodies that make me smile
Sundays are for apple cider donuts at breakfast, wearing pj's all day, and yummy snacks like crab dip when we watch the football games. I had posted this on insta and thought I'd share. It's a fave here.
Annie and I stopped today and picked up some mums and pumpkins. These mums are by our side door- but when I finish decorating the front I will share
