Did I miss anybody????
This is by far my favorite time of the year. It's the start of fall, the weather is cooling off, the days are getting shorter, and I suppose the leaves are changing, somewhere other than here, and we get to continue the tradition of pumpkin picking!
This also is the start of the hunting season! This is an ever evolving "compromise" in our house. If Kevin had it his way, he would scout/hunt every free minute, probably even take time off of work without pay if we didn't have bills to pay!
I start pulling out the decorations (while getting "the look" from Kevin, with a roll of the eyes), starting with Halloween, which over-laps well with Thanksgiving, thanks to all the pumpkins. No sooner than the Thanksgiving bird is carved, out come the Christmas decorations. After all the time spent getting it all put up, I want to enjoy it for as long as possible! Christmas lights are by far my favorite! Reindeer are next up (yes, I have expanded my collection from the snowman-though I still have quite the collection). And so starts the holiday season for me. My biggest goal this year: Finish my Christmas shopping before December 1st so th boys and I can spend time together and make lots of cookies to share with everybody!!!
