Happy Saturday Friends! A glorious sunny day to be

Happy Saturday Friends! A glorious sunny day to begin the weekend! Cleaning the garage and grilling out. Still 91 degrees here but the smoke has subsided a little. Have a great day! 🌻❤️

Hi Friends! Happy Wednesday! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hi Friends! Happy Wednesday! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have "Fallified" the inside of the house and headed to the garden center to find my mums! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is something just cozy and relaxing having blankets and pillows around the house. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am excited to finish the patios this weekend. I love changing things up outside too! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The smoke outside is still pretty thick, but I am praying the fires will subside soon. Praying for all our firefighters who work so tirelessly each and every year. Our fire season is July through October. Although always expected it's still a shock each and every year.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2020 can give us a break, right?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have an awesome day friends! I am so thankful for you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Spending my day writing chapters of my book. Well, maybe paragraphs. Reliving all the heartache can be heavy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I KNOW this book will be life-changing. Probably only to me, but that’s ok. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hope to share content soon. 🙏💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Does it feel like Fall where you are? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, that never stops me from baking something delicious! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Meet me at the blog for a cute story about my granny and her delicious Pumpkin Walnut Bread recipe!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Monday Friends!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I kinda took a break for a few days from social media and the blog.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No, I didn't rest. We moved our daughter to her new home in Prescott Arizona! She starts her new job today and we couldn't be happier for her. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
BUT, we were exhausted! And hot! Oh and exhausted! When we got back, we were met with very bad air quality from the fires raging in our state. The sky is just an eerie shade of brown. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My throat was scratchy and I had a headache and sneezing. Not sure if it was from the air or just tired. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Feeling better today. Ready to start this fabulous week! I can feel Fall coming on strong. Excited!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Please say a prayer for those affected by the fires. The fires are devastating! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have an awesome day! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Friday Friends!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And we are off.....to Arizona! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our daughter is taking a leap of faith (and courage) and moving to Prescott Arizona to work at the Veteran's Hospital. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are so proud of her! Added bonus is Prescott is BEAUTIFUL! There is a cute as can be town square where people just sit and relax or play frisbee or eat yummy ice cream. It's dreamy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Someday, we will be headed that way to stay!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Can't wait to share some pictures of our weekend getaway!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
