I'm grateful for this weekend

It's been such a wonderful weekend, although as always, too short.  While Friday was rainy and wet, yesterday was less cloudy, and today was absolutely gorgeous.  Today, I made a trip up to work at my mom's house, and then we made another trip to the Dayton area to have dinner with lifelong friends.  They were gorgeous drives and it was a lovely evening.

Yesterday's football didn't go entirely how we had hoped, but both games were really great games.  Andrew was home early afternoon, and we had no where else we needed to be the rest of the day.  The house was picked up, and it was so nice to have a fire in the fire place.  And potato soup for dinner, and a bottle of wine.

The middle of October is the beginning of my favorite time of year.  A month from today we'll be almost ready to be off for the week for Thanksgiving.  I'm incredibly full of gratitude already.
