Well it is November 1st. In my mind November brings warm fires, hot soups, pumpkin pie, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin rolls, Apple cider, cold days, dark nights and warm hearts. It is my favorite time of the year! It brings out to mind all the blessings I have in this world. I did the Thanksgiving Challenge last year and had a great time doing it so this year I am going to do the same! Each day I will post something that I am thankful for that day leading up to Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is coming in 28 days. So I accept this challenge and look forward to what everyday thanksgiving brings to mind.
Day 1:
Today I am thankful for clear, "warmer" brighter days. It is 24 degrees outside and sunny with blue clear skies. The weather has been really weird this fall... OK maybe try this whole year has had weird weather thus the "eventful" summer that we had. But this Fall has been very warm but sadly with the warmer days it has been raining and miserable out. I know many in our village that appreciate the winter weather holding off as the are still building and fixing houses. I kind of like the mild Fall we are having. Honestly today I am just thankful that my kids can gear up and go outside and run off ALL of that Halloween Candy that they accumulated last night. Anyways, I am glad they can go play for a while because I know our harsh DARK winter of -50 degrees will be here before we know it and at that temperature the kids are stuck indoors for a long time. The dark winters will be here soon so the boys and I are soaking up as much sun as we can before it doesn't come through our windows or come up above the trees to shine in our yard. Did I mention winter is coming! Thankful for sunny "warm" days to play outside.
So with this 28 day challenge..... What are you thankful for?
