Friday's Fortune ~ $1 Yankee Candles! & August Family Pictures

Ah! Life has been crazy but good with school starting and it's about to get even crazier! Jack will be traveling again with work so I'll be a single parent a bit. It always makes me more appreciative of our time together when he is gone. It's so much easier now that the girls are older though.

One has to be thankful for a job and those airmiles! Every two years, we travel to Texas for a medical conference and those airmiles allows us to do it. For that, I'm extremely thankful!!

On to the Friday Fortune! Yankee Candle has their tarts and votives on sale for $1 (for a limited time only)! That's half the price and with Fall in the air, I can't wait to start burning my candles.

This is my favorite time of year! By no means is it the temperature I enjoy but I just love the fall scents and colors. Chai Tea, Caramel Macchiato, spiced apple cider simmering on the stovetop, the crunch of leaves under foot on a brisk walk. Then comes Christmas! Snow falling, Peppermint mochas, candy canes, hot cocoa. Mmmmmm! Life is good! Doesn't it just get you in the mood for the season. My two most favorite scents from Yankee are Christmas Cookie & Spiced Pumpkin.

Following are some of our pictures from August. I hope this finds all of you well. Enjoy the beautiful colors around you as the leaves change and float to the ground. Take a walk with your family and kick up some leaves. I'm sure next month my girls will be piling the leaves up so they can romp in them! God bless!
