Five Things I am Loving This Week


As autumn seems to be nearing an end for 2015...these are five things this week I am loving...


Monday was one last warm day of 60 degrees to enjoy before snow and cold hit again.  Love these days when you can!


A clean building - a job well done.  Clean spaces give me a peaceful soul. :)  Love!


Our daughters do the Job Chore Chart online and it keeps track of points they have earned for doing their chores.  For example, emptying the dishwasher is 5 points.  When they reach a certain amount of points, they can choose from different rewards.  One reward is 1,400 points is $5.  Addie worked and saved 5,600 points and asked if she could order a new Bible on Amazon with her $20 reward.  
It took her a long time to earn that and it was awesome to see her spend it on a new Bible.  Love!


Snow falling outside...fall tablecloth...burning candle.  Love!


Lamb gyro and rosemary homemade steak fries.  Love!!!

Happy birthday, babe!
