Thanksgiving weekend | 2016

Full bellies and such full hearts after a Thanksgiving holiday with our tribe! We are grateful for this life and those that we are blessed to claim as family and friends. From sweet snail mail and gifts that make me cry, to Friendsgiving with best buds, to sugar for breakfast, favorite dishes and shared recipes, to walks through the woods, to golden hour moments with family - we remain so very thankful. This year has held emptiness, but has us fixed on the simple joys of today and the hope and purpose of all of our tomorrows.

Apple pickin'

Had to carry the basket "mytelf"

Picking some nice, rotten ones

"C'mon y'all, follow me"

Admittedly, not our most consistently happy excursion 

Saturday morning had that crisp, Fall air about it so my mom and I took Wren for a trip to the orchard while Michael was out of town fly fishing in the Smokies. It was as crowded as an amusement park, but thanks to Wren we now have all of these unripened, low hanging Fuji apples to enjoy (: 

We are so grateful for a new season and all the adventures it will bring!
