November Is Here

Hello! Happy November, my friends. I love November. It is the time to settle in, plan, get cozy, and rest in the promise of the upcoming excitement and joy of the holidays, followed by the stillness and rest of winter. 

Before we turned the page into November, we ended October with celebrations. First, on Saturday, Halloween! And then, Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) last night. Flynn dressed as the main character from her favorite movie to date... Project Hail Mary, big sister Madison dressed as a fashionable witch to go with her. 

I stayed home with the pups to prepare our Halloween dinner.

We enjoyed Cheese Broccoli Soup, Ham and Swiss, and Turkey and American Cheese Croissant Sandwiches, and an Apple Pecan Salad.

And a chocolate ganache tart for dessert. We played some games, visited, and remembered Halloween Past as well.

( Flynn was waiting patiently up in Heaven. )

Last night, Madison and Nicolas hosted a lovely celebration for the Day of the Dead, where we remembered our loved ones who have passed.

It was a wonderful evening spent together, remembering our loved ones.

And now, we embrace all that November brings as we slow down and settle in. 

Thanks for visiting, my friends.
