My Day Off

Today is my day off and I am going to spend part of it in preparation for our Thanksgiving Day celebration. We are expecting my dh’s family to join us for a turkey dinner on Sunday so I will be planning the menu, tidying up the house and putting out some Thanksgiving/Fall decorations. I hope to do some grocery shopping as well to avoid the rush on the weekend.

Even though I am truly a summer person, I do love fall. The colors, the early morning frost, sweaters, pumpkin pie, fires in the fireplace, homemade soup… All of these things bring a cozy feeling of joy unlike any other season. I appreciate the sunshine and the warm days more than ever, since I know that winter will be here long before I am ready for it.

I am including some pictures of our front porch in the fall. I always hope it is a welcoming entry to our home for our family and friends. “May our home be warm and our friends be many.”


Have a blessed day!
