Hi Everyone! Happy Friday!

Gosh, I haven't done one of these posts in a long time...since before I had my babies, I think. But wanted to write today about some of the little things I appreciate/am grateful for:

1. Look at Luke riding in the shopping cart! It was the first time he'd done it...out running errands today with his Daddy and Sissy and me...he was so thrilled. Can't believe how grown up he's getting!

2. Our kids got their 6-month shots, plus a flu shot yesterday. They were so miserable last night, especially Zoey, who we brought downstairs and let sit on her daddy's lap, she held onto his shirt and buried her face in his chest, turning around every once in a while to look at us with the saddest eyes, tears on her cheeks. She was so unhappy, which I hate, but it was also like she knew that her daddy would make it better, which he did. So heartbreaking and so adorable all at the same time. 

3. Tomorrow's the first day of fall, and I LOVE fall in Colorado, always been one of my favorite times of the year, with the weather cooling off and the leaves starting to turn, it getting darker earlier so we can start to pull in, enjoy our home and each other...

4. My brother's coming for the weekend this weekend! And the Blue Angles are in town...love watching the Blue Angles. Looking forward to relaxing with family and friends...feel like we've been doing a lot these past few weeks (all the normal stuff, plus trying to get ready for the garage sale we're having next weekend).

5. My husband is BBQing for dinner--honey BBQ pork and peppers on the grill, yellow rice, a salad...yum. I'm so lucky that: a) he cooks, b) he likes doing it, and c) he makes the most amazing meals.

Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! Thanks for spending some time here this week. :)

XOXO
