Nov 13th Thankfulness Photo - Corn maze

If there was ever one thing I missed while gone for college it was definitely Fall activities! Hayrides, bonfires, corn mazes, etc… A couple of weeks ago I got the chance to take my entire family to the corn maze, My in-laws were in town that weekend and of course all of my cousins and family that already live here came! We all had so much fun! I am thankful for ways to get outside, even on a chilly night, and enjoy the crisp clean air while enjoying time with friends and family! I am also grateful for the baby carrier pack that I have to haul Emma around in (she slept most of the time) and I'm also thankful for the extra exercise I got while hauling around a 12 pound baby!
I don't know why we are all so infatuated with fall; why it's sooooo much better than the other 3 seasons of the year, but I think I'll just leave it a mystery and enjoy it's hypnosis over me!

Don't be afraid to bundle up and enjoy nature! Your T.V. series can't be that important. Besides why do you pay for DVR if you don't use it!

Spring Cleaning Challenge- Day 21, Shower

I hope you had a wonderful weekend, celebrating Easter with family and friends. This week we will be focusing on the bathrooms. (I hope you don't have very many) Because I'm not getting this post out till late morning you might consider swapping today's task and tomorrow's. If you get up early and have already taken a shower you might not want to clean the shower today. Instead you can jump ahead to tomorrow and clean the shower curtain and liner. Then tomorrow morning when you take a shower you can clean it. Do whatever works best with your schedule. CHALLENGE: Clean you shower(s) till it sparkles. Here is a link back to the post about shower cleaner. It really does work the best; It makes my shower tiles sparkle! I find that taking a shower while cleaning it is the easiest way. If you have multiple showers, you might consider not getting soaking wet every time, or asking a spouse or child to help you. Take a scrub brush to work on grout mold, and a sponge to wipe
