Many thanks

David and I began our Thanksgiving holidays with dinner at Brince's house in Macon. We always love being with Becca and Brince, and we had the nicest night talking, laughing and enjoying a little vino. Bec's meal was superb, and we went to bed happy and full. On Thursday, we all got up early to head to Hawkinsville as Datee was hosting the annual Coody family lunch on the farm. David's parents came too, so we were happy to have them there for the day. After a feast at lunch, everyone lounged around and made plates later on in the day for that night's dinner. Friday and Saturday nights were spend watching football and hanging with the fam at the river house. On Saturday, Becca and I took Amy to the Red Tomato in Bolingbroke to celebrate her 27th birthday. Being with those two girls always makes any day fun for me! No Black Friday or weekend shopping for this gal - thinking of taking advantage of Cyber Monday though! ;)

A foggy morning

I thought our foggy yard at 7am looked eerily beautiful...the trees look so different with barely any leaves left!

Farm friends

On the days I drive to Athens to work, I pass by this beautiful cow farm. My attachment to this particular red cow has grown...I love his red coloring and white face! I stop at the fence every now and then...sometimes he'll walk up to the gate, and sometimes he just looks at me like "hey there!". Here he is grazing during sunset with his fellow bovines!

Happy Friday!

These trees are right outside my and David's bedroom window and wrap the corner of our house...they're so pretty to wake up to!

Bringing the outdoors in

When summer gives way to fall, I love the colors that come along too....oranges and salmon pinks, and lovely shades of brown. I just grabbed these bottles at IKEA and a few leaves from the yard for a little color.

I'd love to have sunflowers in my house everyday!

A bit of fern, berries, and a simple carnation for the guest room.

And these hydrangea blooms were too beautiful to pass up when I spotted them in Athens.
