Pumpkin everything! Pumpkin muffins! Pumpkin donuts! Pumpkin coffee!!!
We went to the apple orchard last weekend and had a blast. It was a gorgeous day, we found lots of delicious apples, ate yummy donuts and picked out pumpkins. I love our apple orchard tradition!
We took the kids to the park on Monday night. We took a walk with the dogs and then let the kids play at the playground. It was such a nice night and a great way to start our week.
I was able to have lunch with Olivia, Gabe and Matthew this week. That was a special treat!
I received a handwritten thank you from one of my student’s parents…in the mail! I’ve also received a few thank you emails. I can’t tell you how much that means to me. We should all reach out and say something nice more often, don’t you think?
I made a homemade apple pie for Matt this week because it’s his favorite…and I have a ton of apple to use! I’m constantly searching for the perfect apple pie recipe because Matt prefers…are you ready for this? Canned apple filling! EEEEEKKKK! That’s so not happening! So I finally found a recipe that was almost perfect…I just need to add a little more sugar next time to make it taste like the canned stuff. 😉
Even though I’m going to miss Matt, Matthew and Olivia this weekend, I’m excited to spend the whole weekend alone with Gabe at his soccer tournament!
What made you happy this week?
