My favorite from the weekend:
Preparing
This was a special weekend because Abigail came home from college for the first time. It's her 'fall break' and although it's really just a long weekend, I'll take it!
At first it's disbelief that she's really home!
Then I just stare at her (I remember this when Anna came home from college) because she's actually in front of me and it just still surprises me and I feel giddy with delight.
I already had banana bread sliced and in the freezer and also apple bread, but one can not have enough so I also baked pumpkin muffins with cinnamon sugar topping. I always like to have homemade baked goods ready to be a snack with tea or a side in the morning with scrambled eggs or even alongside soup at lunch. I just love to baked {especially in the fall} and I love the feeling of it all tucked away and coziness ready to go!
Homecoming
She came home on Friday night and filled up our kitchen with love {and lots of dirty college laundry - but happy to do it!} We just had to take pictures.
Celebrating
Our annual It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown snack dinner was Friday night. Here is a little peek at the goodness all set up before we ate.
It's something we all look forward to all year long. We always wait until the college break weekend and it really kicks off 'cozy season' for us.
Pumpkin~ing
Our trip to the most sincere pumpkin patch in all of New England. I posted it back here.
There was a lot of college laundry, packing warmer clothes for her to bring back, some correcting, Mass, cooking and eating, and just being together. I've packed my school bag, my clothes are ironed and ready for the week, lunches are made, it's shower and pjs time and then a new week begins! This week I'm taking along my camera so I can capture more of the fall beauty where I live.
