It's a cool, damp, rainy, cozy morning here. The first we've really had this fall.Mal & I are here at home alone. MaKayla is away tending to a commitment that she had previously made. Thankfully she will be home soon!
With a chance of snow in the forecast later this afternoon/evening, Mallary begged and pleaded with me to play some "pre-Christmas" music and since I love it as much as she, I gave in! :) Peaceful Jim Brickman melodies fill the air.
I have a Yankee Pear Orchard candle burning here in the living room. MaKayla has a Christmas Cookie candle burning in her bedroom. Mal has a Hazelnut candle burning in her room. Scents of the coming holidays linger regardless of what part of the house we are in.
A fall Hometown Collection puzzle sits neatly completed and put together on the coffee table.
I'm thinking of putting a pot of soup on for lunch/supper. Mallary is quietly working on her History assignment.
The kettle sits on the stove with hot water waiting to be used... Mal is sipping hot-chocolate, I am sipping hot peppermint tea.
The only thing that would make my morning any more wonderful would be to have Kyle here at home with us! ♥ ♥ ♥
I am thankful for the gift of home...♥I am thankful for the gift of those I love the most...♥
I LOVE your new picture!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brenda! We try to take a "raised hands" picture each year and place it on the wall of our home along with our other family pictures! This was a last minute one but we love it!
ReplyDeleteHope you are doing well! :)
I love rainy days, and even Christmas music a little too early. ;)
ReplyDeleteLove those delightfully scented candles, too!
Laura won't let us listen to Christmas music until Thanksgiving - but sometimes it just feels like we should!
ReplyDeleteMy heart has been craving some of those quiet cuddly restful days after the busyness of fall and harvest.
