Friday Favorites...from our week!

Yesterday we had a beautiful day...23 degrees in the morning, but it did warm up to about 50. My boys did not seem bothered at all by the brisk chill in the air. Our neighbors have a huge leaf pile that Blase lives to play in. As we were getting ready to go jump in the leaves, I noticed Blase's shoes, and here's what happened.
Me..."Blase, why are you going out to play in the leaves with your good dress shoes?"
Blase....."Mom, it's because I'm dressed!"
He answered me like duh mom, dress shoes when your dressed..you should know that. Needless to say I laughed, but it doesn't seem quite as funny today. We changed his shoes and made our way to the leaf pile for some autumn fun.
Blase went to bed thanking God for making the leaves, and woke up this morning still talking about them. After seeing the weather report calling for rain all weekend, he asked if I think the neighbors will remember to tarp the leaf pile? He is so funny.
The pictures below are from Blase taking a hot soak in the tub. Doug gave him the shower cap, so when I went up to check on him I thought too cute. This has been a difficult week for our family, but we are thankful for our relationships with God and just how faithful he is. We are thankful for our health, our boys, and just being able to find joy in our trials....Thank you God! Have a blessed weekend.
