Two. We celebrated your 2nd birthday.  And oh what a beautiful day it was. You are absolutely lovely.  Your laughter fills the room and your eyes light up with joy. Your smile is something we all adore. You're full of adventure and you're brave as can be.  You're growing. And we love you more and more each day. We hope that you enjoyed your day. We love you little one. Love, mom.

Lately, The cooler weather has arrived. Today our high was in the '60s.  I've made two recent trips to pick up my Pumpkin spice latte. And if you haven't tried the pumpkin scone, you seriously have to as soon as possible. The leaves are slowly changing color and we're finding more scattered over our lawn. I love this change. I'm currently burning my apple spice candle. It smells like I just baked an apple pie. Speaking of apples, I recently made some bloomin' apples . They were so delicious. The girls were asleep and my husband and I enjoyed this time together. We sat and enjoyed every last bite.  Our oldest daughter is doing very well in school.  She loves her schedule and the fact that she is home with me. Her teacher recently moved her up to first-grade math. She tested out of kindergarten math and now we are working with her teacher on other subjects. She's ahead for kindergarten and her teacher has notice...

This peaceful moment... Took place in September 2015.  We attended the What if festival. We had such a blast! Here are a few things that took place during the festival... 1.  All the kids were loving the puppet riding a tricycle.  2. Just a quick view of part of the Downtown area.  3. We were entering the Bubble crossing area. Small bubbles, big bubbles, and a lot of colorful ones as well. 4. Art on the street.  A local artist came and created amazing images on the sidewalks. So much talent! 5. The BIG toaster oven!  This was such a fun event for all ages.  *** Each Thursday I will be posting a peaceful moment.

Here are a few of my peaceful moments. Welcome, September! I absolutely love this time of year.  These two little scarecrows come out every year around this time.   I picked some mucho jalapenos from my potted garden.  I added a little soy sauce and sesame oil. I then sauteed them for a little. Game night. My littlest one and I played a game. She absolutely loves this game. And I absolutely love to see her smile.   An art assignment with my oldest.  We made an autumn leaf garland to hang in the window.   Yes, we decorate early. I honestly can't wait for Fall to arrive. :) Evening lattes with my husband. We sat and chatted for a few. I love these moments. I created my Autumn wreath last weekend. I'm pleased with how it turned out. I will now wait patiently for fall to arrive. But for now, the air is cool and all is well.  *** Each Thursday I will be posting a peaceful moment. ...

Paper bracelet making. We used gems, sparkles, glitter, markers, scissors, and glue.  - My oldest absolutely loved them. I think she may have had more fun designing them.  My oldest daughter just started Kindergarten.  She is attending an online academy. I'm still teaching her from home, but this way she will still have a main teacher who will grade her work and live sessions with other students in her class. She will also attend field trips and much more! I'll continue to add in our own lessons and curriculum.  This morning we explored outdoors. This was for one of her science lessons. She observed a few lady bugs, a grasshopper and we talked about her five senses. We're excited to see how this school year goes.  Watching a quick introduction for a lesson.   Art lesson. - Learning about the different elements of shape. Straight line, curvy line, angle line, circles and dots. - We've gone over this during her preschool...
