Welcome November

Here it is...the start of my FAVORITE time of year. Chilly air, comfy sweaters, hot drinks, scarves and hats, fireplace on all day, holiday decorating, family parties, shopping for the perfect gift, snuggling with my kids while watching nostalgic holiday movies, scented candles, watching the snow fall, rosy cheeks, giving thanks and celebrating the birth...I LOVE IT ALL.

While I was doing a little blog stalking this morning, I came across this quote and it has stuck with me, so I thought I would share.

Religion has been on my mind a lot lately. Mostly because of this book. It's a must read. It will deepen your own beliefs and is the perfect way to start this season of GRATITUDE and LOVE. There is no way you could read this book and NOT feel very blessed...
So grab a comfy sweater, plop in front of the fireplace with anything pumpkin spiced and warm and read away.

Thanks Kristen. I've been getting depressed about the sun going down so early....I need to remember all the wonderful things I LOVE about this time of year too.

I've heard of this book....maybe I'll pick it up next time I'm at Costco.

That is one of my favorite talks from conference. That particular quote is something I've been saying to myself a lot lately--when I'm feeling like I don't measure up. I love the graphic.
