Pardon Me While I Dote!

PRESCHOOL ABSOLUTELY ROCKS!
That's really all I can say... IT ROCKS!
Happy little children.
Doing happy little things!
And being GRATEFUL along the way!
Today was my "first" PRESCHOOL experience and I was the possibly the PROUDEST mother in the ROOM!

The Raiger was possibly the PROUDEST little sister in the room.

And GRATEFUL herself to be included in the "snacks" portion of the program {or "show", as Morgan called it}.

Morgan knows winter is upon us; you can see she's preparing for her hibernation. My friend Emily totally ROCKED the toddler tablescape... the turkeys were her part!
Seriously, how cute are they!?
During the "show" the little INDIANS sang 3 or 4 songs.
I had to have total SELF CONTROL to not run up there and eat them ALL UP!
They were so PROUD of themselves; we were even PROUDER!
Go INDIANS! Go!

-----------CHANGING GEARS-----------

Do you press your coffee?
We used to not.
Now we do.
It tastes so much better pressed and it FROTHS.
You can get a French Press @ Tuesday Morning for less than $5.
We've had a few fires this week and I've consumed close to 1 bag of MARSHIES!
Oh my!
They're dangerously good!
Does your house smell good?
If the answer isn't an immediate "YES", try this:
1 apple {on the brink of death is fine}
2-3 C water
6-8 cinnamon sticks {you can get these at what I call "the DG" for $1}
1 handful of cloves
1 dash of nutmeg
the juice of an orange {or OJ from the fridge is fine too}
a splash of vanilla

SIMMER and SMELL!
Mmmmm!
