pumpkin spice
& all things nice
🍂🍪🍁
It’s crazy how time flies and we trade flip-flops for cozy socks, find the nearest pumpkin patch, and sprinkle a little extra fun into the everyday!
From digital scavenger hunts and pumpkin-patch adventures to pumpkin-flavored treats that taste like a hug from autumn... this season is full of reasons to slow down and savor the sweet stuff. So gather your people, make a little mess, chase a few fall adventures, and remember that sometimes the very best memories are found in the simplest moments (preferably with a cookie in hand!). 🍪🧡🍁
This week, I have curated a digital scavenger hunt for kids and for adults that are kids at heart 🧡 for an adult fall party or something fun to do with kiddos in your life. I will leave copies of each list available for free in the bake shop to pick up starting on Thursday!! If you decide to do the digital scavenger hunt, be sure to send me a picture and let me know if I can share it with our digital community!
This past week I had the opportunity to share in the celebration of life of a beautiful soul who was kind of like our church gramma.. 91 love-filled years she had on this earth. I often tear up at a funeral for both the stories and pictures shared ... but also at the love left behind... friends and family grieving for their loss. It is always a reminder to me to savor every moment with every one in my path... it's like a holy hush in the middle of it all whispering sloooooow down.
I hope that you make time - (it rarely happens by accident) - so take the time... send the text, make the plans, share in the simple moments, step outside, play, and savor this precious one life we have with the ones you love. Every breath is a gift!
You matter,
