a happy list

 1.  Breakfast in bed.

It's official, people.  The hubs is super

handsome AND the sweetest!

2.  Sunshine.

I've been loving these magical

late summer days - the crispness of

fall plus the bright cheer of summer

is the best mixture!

3.  Weekend trip.

We're heading north to see my

parentals this weekend.  Hurray

for happy family visits!

4.  Birthday love.

Nothing like a million texts,

calls and fb messages to make

a girl feel totally loved.  Thanks,

guys...you're sweet!

Hope you find some happy things 

in your day today too!

true generosity

 Isn't that the best? 

We could just trudge along, 

you know.  But I never get very far 

on my own joy or strength, 

so I'm grateful that we serve 

a God who is generous with

the good stuff!

stormy sunday

 It was a bit of a wet weekend around these 

parts as the not-so-ladylike Irene blew through 

New England.  Our little neighborhood fared

very well with very minor damage and no real

flooding to speak of, so the hubs and I enjoyed

a quiet, cozy day inside.  We spent lots of time

in the kitchen together making yummy things,

but the whoopie pies were by far the best!

 

Making them brought back many happy

memories of Saturday baking with Grammy,

which was neat.  Isn't it funny how tastes

and smells hold so much memory?

Hope your weekend was safe & dry!
