Friday Favorites

Hello friends... it's been awhile.

I've been MIA, but if you looked, you would've found me at work or in the car, or if you did find me at home, I would've been half asleep. At least that is how the last few weeks have felt.

But I'm here now, and thankful for Rachel at finding joy, and for all of these random things:

-Matt likes to say "hi" to everyone and everything, including inanimate objects.

-Matt has a variety of new words including doggie, everyday (???), bye-bye, and ba (which could be bottle, ball or sheep, depending on what he wants).

-We had BEAUTIFUL 65 degree fall days early this week. Oh, how I love that weather. I'm so thankful for sunshine.

-I was able to do a LOT of laundry on those beautiful days. Perfect breeze and sunshine for drying clothes quickly. YAY! (Said clothes may still be sitting, folded of course, in laundry baskets waiting to be put away).

-Getting out of work early today because it was slow. Slow isn't necessarily my favorite thing, but for once I didn't have to stay late.

-I really like Pandora. Matt likes music too. Our current shuffle is on worship music, Disney songs and Broadway.

-Eagerly anticipating the holidays. And making plans for them. And attempting to be finished shopping early this year, and on budget too. I love giving gifts, and I love when I have ideas for hard-to-shop-for people.

-One of my good friends just got engaged! And she asked me to be a bridesmaid. Can you believe I have never been one before??

-Thankful my husband had a few free hours today so he could watch Matt and I could take a much-needed nap. I am in the beginning stages of some kind of sinus/chest/cough thing.

-Quality "hanging out" time with Christian friends... the body of Christ is a wonderful thing.
