I'm lovin' it!

Okay, I'm not quite sure why, but I am LOVING this time of the year.

~Maybe it's because the weather is finally cooling off and I can spend time outside with my children. Caleb loves going to the park and we have gone three days in a row! I also go walking with a friend three times a week and it is beautiful in the mornings right now. Both of my boys enjoy the outdoors too.


~Maybe it's because Jared doesn't have any night classes this semester! He gets to just come home after work every day and spend time with us. Ever since Caleb was born Jared has had a lot of classes at night. This semester he only has one class and it's in the morning. It is wonderful!

~Maybe it's because the Holidays are just around the corner and that means spending time with family and friends. I have to admit that when Jared and I were driving to his brother's house on Sunday I pulled out my Josh Groban Christmas CD to listen to. I thought Jared would object since it's not even Halloween yet, but he didn't mind. I just can't help it, I'm so excited for Christmas this year!

~It's also because I love baking and making fun treats and since it's getting cooler outside I can turn on my oven more! I made zucchini cookies a few days ago and last night we made hot dog mummies for dinner. I just made my own bread sticks and wrapped them around hot dogs. I got the idea from the website picky palate and it was fun. I think Caleb enjoyed them the most!



~And probably the biggest reason I am so happy is because I get to see these smiles every single day! I am excited to spend time together as a family this Holiday season.
