Things To Love…

…on a Monday…

A beautiful, new skein of yarn called Black Current. Isn’t that luscious?

Playing Five Crowns with some of my favorite people.  Pretty much my favorite game right now.

My funny little toe nail coming off with the polish intact. Haha.

Getting to vote in this wonderful country of ours.

A beautiful fan in my favorite color all the way from Japan. Thank you Josh!

Finding a random cup of Italian Ice in the freezer that I didn’t know was there. Yum!

Finding the perfect milk for a pile of voracious kitties and their mama.

How deeply kitties sleep when their tummies are full.

Making the perfect cheesy- snack to watch the BYU game with…even if they…

lost. Wahhh!

One of my favorite books by my FAVORITE author. I swear I love everything she writes!

What about you? What are you loving on this pretty little Monday?

 

 

Come On Autumn!!

My beautiful Maple tree is finally the stunning scarlet color that I always wait for in October.  I just sit and stare at it sometimes.

Then, just as I’m reveling in all that gorgeous color…

November arrives and one by one the leaves start to…

fall.

Everything about Autumn is breathtaking to me–the crisp air, the sweet smelling rain, the overcast sky–as well as the falling leaves.

Luckily, we chose a tree whose leaves are a gorgeous on the branches…

as they are on the ground.

 

 

 

 

Throwback Thursday

Scriptures By Chompy

Forteen years ago…

My daughter Lyndi usually reads scriptures out loud in the morning, while Miss Chompy is having her breakfast. For some reason, this particular morning our gal was really listening. Here’s what we got~

“Lift up your head…

and be of good cheer.”

(That’s her super-duper ‘being of good cheer” face.)

“I did it mom!”

Yes, baby. You did.

One. Dang. Cute. Kid.
