Simple Woman's Daybook ~ October 27th


To learn more about the Daybook, go to Peggy's blog.

For Today...

Outside my Window...the air is cool and while it feels like a fall morning, I know we are going to experience a hot "summer" afternoon. Forecast says 98 degrees.
I am thinking...that I wish I had a few extra hours in the day.
From the learning rooms...new Mr. Sketch markers (the smelly ones =], fall projects and new spelling lists
I am thankful for...for my children - especially Hannah who turned 13 this past Saturday! I am also thankful for my best friend Marco. He is always so busy with both jobs, but he always manages to put our family first. I was pleasantly surprised when I mentioned the Pumpkin Patch and he was just as eager to take the kids as I was. =]
From the kitchen...two huge pots of pozole for Hannah's birthday get together. One chicken and one traditional pork.
I am wearing...denim clam diggers and a flowered shirt with Halloween slipper socks.
I am reading...The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society...a RAK given to me by Beth!
I am hoping...that I don't get overwhelmed with all there is to do today and that I can enjoy my family and friends most of all.
I am creating...some ideas in my head. I've been reading Stacy Julian's Big Picture and I would like to try the concepts that she talks about there.
I am hearing...my children talking about many different things and Naomi playing a Dora game on the t.v.
Around the house...laundry is caught up, scrapbook table has been put away (for now =]) and I am getting ready for lots of company!
One of my favorite things...is checking my blog to find that someone has left a comment for me!
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...wishing I didn't have much on the list...but I am preparing for our Trunk or Treat Harvest Party this Wednesday, I still have to choose a song to sing for Juan and Denisse's wedding, meet with my homeschool ES and then maybe take a quick breather before I start thinking about another birthday (Taryn's) and Thanksgiving plans.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
My two youngest at the Pumpkin Patch this past Saturday.

THis probably sounds silly, but your blog is so relaxing and always makes me smile. I love how your spirit shines through, and you always show how much you love life and your family.

I think those two picture thoughts are the cutest picture thoughts ever. They are adorable.

And it snowed here today so I'm not really sure what to think about all you folks with your warm weather, lol.
