giving thanks & a fall fair.

October 8, 2012 by mama lola

today was the most glorious day. the morning started with frost on the ground and crispness in the air that lingered longer than expected. it was the perfect day to head out on a thanksgiving morning to a local fall fair and have a spontaneous play date with wonderful friends.


it is moments like these where i feel my heart swelling with love and gratitude.

i am thankful for my beautiful children. they are my life.
i am thankful for my dear husband. he is gentle, loving and very cute!
i am thankful for my family and friends, and the love they give.
i am thankful for my health. it ain’t perfect, but i’ve come a long way, baby!

i am thankful for our community. it is a beautiful network of families and neighbours.
i am thankful for our home. sweet peppermint patty keeps us safe, warm and cozy, when it matters most.



i am thankful.



i am very thankful to all of you for your continued support with this blog.
i am thankful for my new readers, returning readers and the comments many of you leave. and hey, don’t forget to check out bear & lion on facebook!


HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!

    Happy Thanksgiving to you! It looks to me as if you have many blessings to be thankful for. We celebrate Thanksgiving in November here in the states. I enjoyed your breath taking pictures and your refreshing happiness about all that is good in life!!
