Nice Weekend

The weather cooled down here this weekend and it felt amazing! Chris and I took advantage of it and made a trip to Jackson's Orchard on Saturday. This month is all about the apples, but I'll be back next month when it's pumpkin time! (Don't worry, Grace, we'll bring you with us!) You know I love my pumpkins! So we loaded up on apples and peaches picked from the orchard.


And then I got a nice little treat of caramel apple chips & an apple slush. Yum!


Other than our orchard trip, we spent a lot of time just hanging out at home together. Cooking, watching episodes of 24, cleaning, and playing with our Lucy Goose. I even made time to give myself a manicure!


I love weekends filled with nothing but quality time with my hubs and my pup! Recently I heard a saying that really resonated with me.

"The grass is greener where you water it."

It makes me really want to focus my time and attention on those things in my life that deserve the water - my relationship with God, my marriage, my family, and my health. September has been a really busy month for me filled with lots of 'extra' stuff. And while I love the extra stuff, and I'm thankful for the extra stuff, I never want my most important 'grass' to wither because I'm too busy watering where I shouldn't be! Make sense?

Hope you are having a happy Monday!
