october!

like most people, i love fall! and even though fall officially begins in september, to me october = fall

and today fall has delivered me a great first day!

i woke up to the sound of rain outside my window

an awesome turbo kick workout to start things off

a new candle that has made my house smell yummy

watching taylor swift music videos! don't be fooled by the pictures, logan kept requesting more. sorry dave, your boy likes taylor swift!

and obviously so does emma! she loves to dance!

i made soup for the first time in awhile and it sat simmering on the stove for hours and tasted so good!

i had all the windows open and i cleaned my whole house, which it desperately needed (and makes me so happy! i can't stand it when it's messy)

i listened to this talk. amazing, as elder holland always is. and it got me so excited for general conference this weekend!

and now the kids are in bed and dave and i are enjoying some freshly baked snickerdoodles (dave's request) and watching revolution.

i've got my first can of pumpkin that is just waiting to be turned into bread and a few halloween decorations that need to be put up!

welcome october. 

we're off to a good start!
