Fall generally makes me VERY happy! I love to see all the colors change, the change in temperature, its like an internal clock that tells me I can start getting ready for the Holidays...:( This isn't happening here as drastically as i'm used to, and its really messing me up! Its still green outside...EVERYWHERE, and its still been 80 degrees, which don't get wrong is wonderful, it just isn't what I'm used to. I'm trying to find things to keep me busy to keep my mind off of it because when I really stop to think, it makes me sad. Yesterday I finally put up the Tree frame I bought at Bed, Bath and Beyond, it looks AMAZING! Almost gives my dining room a magazine look..ALMOST. I also added a pumpkin centerpiece, and an amazing smelling pumpkin spice candle, which if you don't have one, you NEED one, they smell amazing!
The candle really helped get me into the fall spirit, and feel super domesticated, in fact, it made me decide to make pumpkin bread, which if you know me, my cooking isn't usually the greatest idea. I accidentally over did it though, and my family will probably be eating pumpkin bread for the rest of their lives....whoops. I just didn't want half a can of pumpkin to go to waste! My day got even better as the day progressed. Two people from Chase Bank here in Jacksonville showed up at my door around 5 and told me they had something for my husband, and they unloaded THIS:
I think his face can speak for us when I say he was VERY VERY excited.
Anyone who knows my husband knows that he LOVES to cook! This was perfect! Now he has a good gas grill, and a smoker charcoal thing. LOL Now we just need to have a BBQ! :) Oh, and my husband thought my pumpkin bread was the greatest thing since sliced cheese. GO ME! :)
