Pouring God's Fingerprints on Friday




The morning sky has been filled with amazing, beautiful, stunning...colors.  Usually, I wake up with the cold air hitting me in the face as I race to beat the clock and scrape my windows in the morning but when I saw that firey sky the other morning, I ran back inside to grab my camera (had to race a little faster then!)  Admiring those colors and thanking God for another inspiring day, just put a smile on me that lasted all day.  Also, I have been busy pouring candles and enjoying the new fragrances of the upcoming holidays...ever wondered what a bucket of Elf Sweat smells like?  Well, since I didn't have a bucket...Elf Sweat is really sweet like candy, candy corn, candy cane, maple syrup, and Buddy the Elf, himself.

God has poured out his love into our hearts.  ~ Romans 5:5

Saturday Sleet and other Fun stuff



It's Saturday and sleeting here in November, great Christmas shopping weather but I still can't get my mind around it being Halloween this past week already.  Didn't it just turn to fall weather and revisiting my sweaters?  I baked some yummy cupcakes for coach's birthday and the girls had a party with him.  I also remembered to get a card for all the girls to sign for him...yay mom!  Then it was time for Halloween suddenly, but Mary had it covered as usual...she just read the book "The Night Circus" so she decided to dress in black and white.  I just thought she matched Emily.

The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des RĂªves, and it is only open at night.
