Welcome October 2022!

 OCTOBER │ CURRENTLY                                                   

Listen!
The wind is rising and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!
 ~ Humbert Wolfe
Painting pumpkins at the Waterfront's Fall Festival

September kicked off my favorite four months of the year, and that feels like just yesterday. But here we are. October. 

Watching:  Hallmark Fall Into Love premieres. If only every city/town/persons celebrated the holidays like a Hallmark movie. What a wonderful place this would be. Here, in our home we try to make holiday season extra special for the kiddies. In fact, we are already filling the calendar with special things to do. Hocus Pocus 2. Emmie and I cuddled together and watched this movie last night. Emmie enjoyed the first half, especially the Sanderson Sisters as young girls. I found it enteraining and not bad for a prequel. Disney's Zombies 1, 2 and 3 has been a huge hit with the girls and the 3 films are on rotation.

Eating:  The weather here is cooler (downright cold in my opinion), which is perfect for Crocktober.  Perfect for dinners made in the slow cooker.  Pork Roasts, Red Chili, White Chicken Chili, Meatballs, comfort foods - yum!

Drinking:   Water - ugh! Doing the challenge for the next 30 days, and also because I don't drink enough water (some days none).

Playing:   Township - Still hooked.  The board game, Candyland and the dice game Yahtzee.

Looking Forward to:   Our annual Halloween party, pumpkin picking, ZooBoo and countless other October treats.

Reading: 25 Days Til Christmas by Poppy Alexander.
   
Enjoying: Lighting candles, the scent of fall, the changing leaves, tv or books with the kiddies bundled in blankets.   

Making: A Christmas tree skirt.
