I took the day off work with a plan to take the kids skiing. I had been working a lot of overtime and my kids needed to spend some time with me without any distractions.
I woke up early, made the kids a hearty breakfast and started to pack up our ski gear.
Do you remember the last time you actually wrote a handwritten letter? In this age of technology, e-mail, e-cards, and evites seem to be the standard over traditional pen and paper. Call me old fashioned, but I still love pretty stationary and getting birthday cards in the mail.

The hot toddy has been the favorite hot drink to warm up with during the coldest Fall and Winter months. Some people even swear hot toddy’s even help stave off those illnesses that plague us during those times and keep us healthy. I’m not convinced on that part, but I still enjoy indulging in a hot boozy drink from time to time. They are great to warm me up when it’s chilly outside!
Fall is my favorite season during the year and my kids really love it too. The weather is cooler and the leaves are turning all the pretty colors. We get to sip our favorite drink – hot cocoa. And there is almost always lots of pretty fall decorations up around our neighborhood and community.
My kids love doing nature scavenger hunts so this year I created this fun Fall themed scavenger hunt with things kids might find during the Fall season. I included some of our favorite fall finds from apples to pumpkins a leaf pile and even someone’s hot drink! Maybe it’s hot cocoa or fresh apple cider or if it’s an adult, it could even be cup of coffee!
