Fall this year

I have so enjoyed this fall.  Maybe it's been because I've seen my husband more this fall than last fall, maybe it's because the weather has been so mild or maybe it's because the leaves in our yard have provided hours of entertainment for my kids.  This year we have been really careful to not just skip November and get into Christmas like we usually do.  It's been nice to celebrate this month of thanksgiving and I have a lot to be thankful for.

And yes, I stayed up until 3 am on Thursday night with my mom watching Breaking Dawn.  I admit the movie is a little silly but it was really fun to do anyway.  I'm really thankful for my mom who is one of my very best friends in the whole world.
