Joy List Monday

Joy List Monday
♥ a weekly ritual ♥
a reminder to stop and pay attention to the little beauties and graces that make life magical and to set aside time for gratitude each day 

Beautiful Wisconsin Autumn weather for exploring
♥Enjoying a beautiful hike with family and friends
 ♥ Swans on a Wisconsin lake swimming on the reflection of beautiful colored trees
 ♥Autumn colors in the trees, on the ground, on the water and the rocks
 ♥Making Beef Vegetable Soup with my husband, dicing carrots, potatoes, celery together all the while dancing along to our favorite songs

Fresh Cut Flowers ... delivered to your door ... I was so excited to be able to fill an order for a friend. Her mother in law fell and broke her arm. I was able to create a fun Autumn bouquet with a burlap bow. I also made a Get Well Card. I grew carnations for the first time in my garden. They are still blooming. The small vase is full of pink carnations. I included them in the delivery. It was so fun to spread Get Well Wishes.

  1. How wonderful of you! And the bouquet has beautiful fall colors. I have never seen carnations actually growing anywhere. So I assume they are hard to grow.
