Leaving Home


Leaving home to come home leaves you with an empty space and a sense of abandonment that is not easily filled.  There is just something about the smiling faces that greet you upon your arrival that make the long flights and busy airports all worthwhile.

We were also embraced by the golden rays of the fall sun, warming to the skin and refreshing to the soul.  Geese were flying overhead and I am sure these are some of the same geese that left Alaska weeks prior on their journey home for the winter.

It was a week spent enjoying the company of the TTVVBBFFAAE’s and their families and also my family in Maple Grove.  A week of laughter and joy not long forgotten and will always be remembered.

TTVVBBFFAAE ~ correct me if I get this wrong Alexis ~ True True Very Very Best Best Friends Forever And All Eternity!
 
Bear, our youngest son, picked us up at the airport and when we arrived home we were welcomed by the lighted pumpkins that he and his brother had carved the night before.

The glowing light of carved pumpkins on the porch was a very special treat and a kind thoughtful touch.  Thank you Bear ~ you’re AWESOME!

 



These photos were taken Sunday morning ~ yup we woke up to S*N*O*W.  I think winter is here to stay.

Stay warm and carry a warm heart!
