i need to remember

the things that i love.
for lunch i grabbed a loaf of bread from the wilk on campus and can i just tell you how delicious these little guys are? It's a wheat loaf that is warm and soft on the inside accompanied with honey butter. while i was eating this it got me thinking that i absolutely love them. (i know my mom loves them too) and i was thinking about all these random little things that make me happy which i needed today...

smores and bon fires at the beach

these children and their smiles and laughter are without a doubt at the top of my list

october.

the temperature dropped and yesterday i would have said it felt like winter, but today is better because it actually feels like autumn now.
I love all the trees changing colors and how utah has real seasons compared to where i grew up in california it was pretty much the same all year long.

I really hope this fall i can go to a pumpkin patch and pick out pumpkins with friends and have a pumpkin carving night.

I also hope I can find time this year to take a drive into the canyon and take pictures of the fall season and capture all the leaves changing. I didn't get a chance to last year, so I am hoping this year I can get out there on a sunday and drive to park city.
