little gi

i love ny :)

i do....
i really, really do....

it is peak leaf peeping time here & i absolutely love it....i'm sitting here on my couch & just glanced outside the sliding glass door & it is unbelievably gorgeous outside...bright blue sun, leaves falling carpeting the ground with gold, orange, red, brown...i love it....

plan to soak in as much of the gorgeousness this weekend because it will be gone in the blink of an eye :)

friday fill in time :)
1.  Right now, I'm feeling hungry (as usual...lol).
2. Right here, right now is where I want to be.
3.  How does one organize & store their photo files?  i suck at that
4. Creating a list keeps me on track.
5.  Please don't eat the corner pieces of the brownie batch...i love those.
6.  Watching my kids enjoy childhood fills me with joy.
7.  And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to the reading pajama party at the kids' school, tomorrow my plans include soup making, scrapbooking, shopping & drinking red wine while watching the wire and Sunday, I want to have a fantastic time tailgating & having fun at the turkey bowl! it is our town's pee-wee football team's last game of the season...they have lost every single game, but they are so adorable & try so hard, seriously they are the cutest little guys...here's hoping for some touchdown celebrations this sunday :)
