I am sitting in my little library, looking out at the aspens in our driveway, noticing that fall is almost over and enjoying the color.
I am reading The Yearling, one of the best old books, and the theme of some great music I have been listening to by an artist, a family favorite and friend. More about that later.
I drank Pumpkin Pie Latte on the way home from church because my sweet friend, Rachael told me they were so delicious. (Thanks, Rachael, you are right.)
Loved church this morning and love people who make me want to worship Him more.
Having tea time with Sarah and Clay with Carrot Cake.
Listening to Nathan’s acoustic music and thinking how much I like his songs.
Thinking about how much I enjoyed having Joel home and how I love it that he is terribly idealistic.
Having left over pizza with Sarah and Clay with Salad and so glad not to be cooking again.
Looking forward to having everyone home over Thanksgiving and planning the meals.
Praying for Joy in her speech tournament and hoping she has a good day and gets some sleep. (I can still mother from far away.)
Thinking how grateful I am to have so many friends out there and how I pray for you so often.
Now to my books…..a nap…a walk….and who knows what else.




Sounds like a perfectly perfect day.
Enjoy, dear friend!
Ah, the peace that come with simple joys…
I just finished reading The Yearling (for the first time), and I was also inspired by AP to read it. It was an important book for me to read as I saw myself in the characters and their responses to life.
That sounds like a lovely day.
Miss you! Can’t wait to see your new library/office/tea room/Sally’s space
We are celebrating fall with temperatures finally in the 50s at night–blissful after such unusually warm CA temperatures this summer.
How NICE. So glad you are getting some downtime with your loved ones! I recently had a Pumpkin Pie coffee also and it was TOO GOOD!
What is a pumpkin pie coffee and where do you find it!?!
You know us moms we need to be in the know about anything that would contribute to a wonderful ‘time out’.
