Who has time for work when there's so much to do?

Today I'm wishing that I didn't have to go to work so that I could clean (really clean) my house before my parents get here tomorrow. And I'd also put together a few dishes for Thanksgiving - anything I could do ahead. Oh, and the dogs need a bath...desperately. I've been thinking about pulling out some board games for the weekend, but they are buried in the back of the coat closet (that could really use some organization). And Christmas decorations!! I've been wanting to decorate for a few weeks now, and I rearranged the furniture over the weekend to make room for the tree.

It's all going to stay on my list because it's time to head out the door. I have quite a bit to do there to get ready for Camp Dabney tomorrow - fake fire, blankets on the floor, popcorn, and stories.

Guess now is as good a time as any to get started!

There's a great giveaway going on over at Adam & Andrew! A genius product - I think a certain niece of mine might need one as she transitions to her big girl room and bed to make room for her little brother (my first nephew) in the Spring!

Today has been chock-full of those moments where I sit back, take it all in, and think, "This is as good as it gets..." All little things, all probably common to a lot of people. Here's what is making me love life today:

-Sleeping in. Past 9 am.
-My husband made the coffee.
-The house is clean.
-The Aggies on TV (of course, a win would have been preferred).
-USAFA on the TV.
-Lunch of green soup (from Love Soup, a cookbook by Anna Thomas ) with grilled cheese made from homemade bread (also from Love Soup) and pepperjack (Will's favorite).
-Two movies from Netflix - The Proposal and Duplicity.
-The fire going all day because of the windy/rainy/crazy weather.
-Spaghetti squash for supper.
-Staying in sweats all day long.
-Having my husband home on a weekend that he was supposed to be away.

Here's hoping your Saturday was equally as blessed.
