Our friends from Scranton got engaged yesterday! Best Wishes to you both!
Happy Halloween!
Halloween marks the first year that we have lived in our home (well, at least since we signed on the dotted line). So far, the day has brought antique shopping, a visit with Mom, and lots of candy as we await the trick-or-treaters. It seems like there aren't that many children out this year. Nonetheless, we are determined to enjoy the fall's big holiday (other than Thanksgiving).
Fall in NYC
I'm sure I've said it before, and I certainly will say it again.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE THE FALL!
I love everything about it.
I love the cool, crisp weather.
I love the changing leaves.
I love the warm sweaters and hooded sweatshirts.
Today was a bit warmer than the average Fall day. But, it made the trip to Central Park Zoo with the kids that much better.
They were excited to be there.
The animals were active.
The leaves were changing.
Nice, short week
This week is a really short work week for me. We have regular classes today and tomorrow. Then, on Wednesday, we go to Hershey, PA. It will be a well deserved, much needed break.
To get ready for the massive amounts of chocolate I will be eating over the next few days, I went to the gym and bought Chewy Chips Ahoy. (I figure one will counteract the other.)
The plan right now is to work a regular day tomorrow. Pack and go to the gym. Wake up regular time. Go to the gym. Leave with the rest of the faculty [hopefully] in our brand new van!
The van came to visit us on the day of the Walk-A-Thon but, it hasn't been delivered yet.
Things That Make Me Smile
We had a lazy Sunday due to the fact that I still have a cold.
While cruising through the blog-o-sphere, I discovered that having a cold
is not such a big deal.
I am quite lucky to be sitting in my home, with my husband with a stuffy nose and a cough
because this will pass.
Life will go on.
I will continue to live, laugh, and love.
One of my favorite magazines, Southern Living, featured this BEAUTIFUL kitchen on their website. Wouldn't this be great to entertain in?
I love the beautiful cobalt mosaic backsplash, the gorgeous chandelier, and blue island. !

I love my Irish heritage. I also love Willow Tree!
This would be a fantastic addition to my collection!

How cute are these two?

We had two little Madame Alexander dolls sitting at the foot of our wedding cake.
These remind me of a less formal version of those two!
