The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

September 30, 2013

{currently} A September Recap


loving : the weather lately: cool in the mornings and just warm enough in the afternoon.
reflecting : on my baby girl’s first year and how much she has grown.  The picture above is aesthetically busy and cluttered, but one of my favorites from her party.  On her knees, playing with her new tea set…how did she get so big?
planning : weekly menus for all of our meals…Eat At Home October is on!
brainstorming : how to inexpensively turn our fourth bedroom into a guestroom.  We are expecting visitors next month.  
running : five days a week, attempting to improve my 5K time.
hoping : to finish my book, The School of Essential Ingredients, before midnight tonight.  The first novel I’ve finished in months!
addicted to : my guilty pleasure, Grey’s Anatomy.
thankful for : the health of my children.
drinking : coffee, lots and lots of coffee.  
making : a mini scrapbook of our summer vacation in Maine using a kit I received from a penpal.
dreaming : about an organized laundry room/mudroom, a project that I hope can be completed this winter.  
noticing : the imagination of my boys as they dress up as Star Wars characters.
baking : gluten-free cookies from Immaculate Baking Company…so good!
working on : a big piece of art for the dining room that holds lots of sentimental value.
excited for : a long overdue date night!

    AMEN to the coffee! Grace has a similar tea set, just a different print! I hope you're planning on sharing about the art you're working on, I'd love to see!
