I love everything about fall. The orange and red hues of the leaves, the cool crisp air, wearing hoodies and being able to enjoy the outside are just a few of the things that is great about this time of year. My husband and I decided we would take full advantage of our twin free weekend and spend some quality time together. Usually we barely see each other on the weekend even when the kids stay at my inlaws. I am buried in a sea of paperwork most of the time and he is finishing up school so we are always doing something. However this past weekend we decided we were going to spend a whole day together doing things we love. It was so nice! We went to a few yard sales Saturday morning and then went on a picnic at a local park and had lunch. It was great to be able to talk to my husband and conversate with him without thinking of the twenty other things I needed to do. And some may not understand this but before we had lunch we had made a pact not to talk about the kids. We get so caught up in them that we forget about each other and what is going on in our own individual lives that we have so it was nice catching up. I have missed him. As weird as that sounds. I mean, I see him every single day but my life is go go go from the minute my feet hit the floor in the morning and by 9:00 when the kids are in bed I am completely out of it, so we get no time to even tell each other about our day. I loved it and hopefully with the cooler weather steadily approaching we will be able to have more of these days. Here are a few little pictures that I snapped of our outing together.
Waitin for Daddy Bear to get everything out of the car.

I am so blessed to have such an amazing husband. God has given me so much more than I could ever deserve. William is completely my other half. I know, know, know that there isn't another person out there that could handle me in all of my craziness but he completely embraces me for who I am no matter how opposite of him that it may be. I am outgoing, talkative, loud, vivacious and sponataneous and William is mellow, reserved, quiet, and very diplomatic. The Lord absolutely knew what he was doing when he put the two of us together!
Just now viewing your blog-love it Heather! Something you will cherish forever. And happy fall, my favorite time of year too!
