Settling In...






It got cold and windy overnight and almost all of the leaves have come down.  It was hard to slip out from under the down comforter this morning, so I made apple pie oatmeal (make it with water for lenten days) and lit our pinecone candle.

The children have art class on Tuesdays and all the mamas hustle over to the coffee house across the street for a little break.  We look forward to Art Day so much and are very thankful for Miss Erika!  That hour of conversation over steaming mugs of tea or coffee really helps.

I ordered the chocolate coins that we like for Saint Nicholas Day (if you like them too, you must order by tomorrow to guarantee delivery before December 6th) today and have started to think about gifts for Little Man's namesday and birthday and Saint Nicholas Day.  December is not that far away!

I'm looking forward to St. Nicholas Day too! We just use the regular gold chocolate coins from the supermarket though.
