What I'm reminiscing about............
Our college girl came home Labor Day weekend. It was so good to see her again and we went to a football game.
What I'm loving..............
Y'all, I am loving watching the A Very Brady Renovation show on HGTV. I loved this show as a child and my girls loved watching it too. I even said last week I am so glad I am alive to watch this happen! Two years ago when we went to Los Angeles, we drove by the house and took a photo, which was before they put the house up for sale.
And, you may know I am a fan of Pioneer Woman, especially after visiting her ranch in March. So this picture of two of my favorite things really made me smile. She will be cooking in the Brady kitchen on this weeks episode of Pioneer Woman!!
What we've been up to............
It's been a busy month with little things, but one of the fun things was spending time with my greats on a Saturday morning. We shopped and went to Chick-Fil-A.
What I'm dreading.............
I am totally dreading more heat. Come on fall weather!!!
What I'm working on.............
I am planning a few fall quick weekend trips and thinking about travel next year.
What I'm excited about...........
Seeing our college girl (pictured here with her sweet roommate) this weekend! I am also looking forward to a day off work and eating out that comes with the weekend away :).
What I'm watching/reading..............
Like I mentioned earlier, I am loving the Brady Renovation show and am also excited for the new season of the Voice with Gwen Stefani. And I'm hoping the Yankees do well in post season baseball!
What I'm reading is our new devotion book, New Morning Mercies by Paul David Tripp. The cool thing about this is that all 4 of us got this before Isabella went to college. We facetime every other week (the goal was once a week, but every other week is how it is working out for us) to talk as a family about what we have read since we are all reading the same devotion book.
What I'm listening to........
Currently, a Huey Lewis playlist on Spotify! I am a huge Huey fan and am grateful to have met him twice :).
What I'm wearing..........
I am a jeans and a short sleeve shirt girl, often found with a cardigan for cooler temperatures inside. But I am hoping this time next month I can respond with boots and long sleeve shirts!!!
What I'm doing this weekend..........
We are taking a road trip to go see our college girl!
What I'm looking forward to next month.........
Have I mentioned cooler temperatures yet?? I know everyone south of Minnesota is in agreement!
I mean, next month is October which begins the true holiday season trilogy. In October, we celebrate my youngest daughters birthday and I still love watching the excitement leading up to the birthday.
Pumpkins, pumpkin food, cooler weather, birthdays...I mean so many little things that make life happier :).
What else is new..........
Typically in the last few years, I put out fall decorations on September 1st. Due to the heat in September, I just couldn't bring myself to put out fall decorations that early. Now that the official start of fall is here, I have decorated the house. I keep these decorations out for almost 2 months until Christmas, so I am thankful I didn't put them out any earlier than I did this year. Here are a few pictures, or okay, my home fall tour.:
Like the rest of the south, I am waiting on fall temperatures before I put out any mums. I did get this new wreath for our door.
Dining room table
We still have a Happy Birthday banner up in honor of Avery's birthday last week. We have family birthdays the next 2 months, so we just may keep it up until mid-November. I did get some new pillow covers and covered up some old pillows. I really like these pumpkins.
Here you can see another pillow cover that came in the same set.
Happy Fall! We finally made it! Go enjoy your day!
Thanks for recapping the month with me and have a great day!
