Friday Confessions and Random Happiness

I really do feel like the older we get, the quicker the weeks go by. Now that I have made myself sound like a 90 year old, here are a few random bits of happiness from the week.

I must confess that I become re-obsessed with Fall every year. I forget how wonderful it is when the weather gets a little cooler and pumpkins start appearing on doorsteps. And by cooler, I mean the weather has dropped to the 90s. It's south Texas- I'll take what I can get. Sitting on a hay bail means it must be Fall, right?


Jenny had a fantastic time last weekend playing with cousin Bella. Love those cuties to pieces!


I have an unhealthy obsession with ice cream. I could eat it every day. This week I tried Greek froyo, and it is a nice alternative. Is it Bluebell? No, but it's also not 1000 calories.


We received a letter from our sponsor child, Faith! It totally made my day! We are excited to write back and send a Christmas gift soon!


I hope you all have a great weekend!

  5. Fall is lovely lovely as is that picture! I've been eating greek yogurt with granola in it for dessert at night so I don't eat other sweets. It's sweet but you're right, it's no Bluebell. Such is life.
