Mmmmmmm

Smell that? Wondering where that delicious and divine scent is coming from? Well, it's my Pumpkin Spice oil and candle burning at my place. Mmmmmmmm the smell of summer gone, cooler days ahead and autumn coming around the corner.

I fancy any scent that has a cinnamony {is that a word?} flavor. It's a very relaxing smell to me that I look forward to every fall and winter. I'm a big oil and candle burning gal. I love my home to smell good. My hubby is even more into candle burning then I am- go figure. I'm really enjoying today for it is the first day this season of burning it. Oh, the simple joy I feel! Mmmmmmm.

This morning I also got out my fall decorations and sprinkled my home and front porch with them. I enjoy the autumn decor because it lasts from September till November without having to take it down for another! I can be lazy sometimes. teehee

I have the cutest scarecrows sitting on my front porch chairs- welcoming our guests and driver- byers. :) You can't help but return their smiles. {Or it could just be me- smiling at my make believe buddies.}


It's an over cast day with spots of showers off and on- which has made the temperature drop some- which in turn makes me go into my dream land that it's actually autumn time and not the end of summer here in Phoenix!

I'm totally in the mood to make cinnamon rolls now... so guess what we'll be having as a treat for family night tonight? Mmmmmmmm

I have to share this darling story!

So, I took pictures of my scarecrows for you all to see and I wanted Tucker in a few snapshots as well. I took him to his dresser, and tried to put on an adorable V-neck sweater. I thought it would go perfect with these fall pictures I was taking.

He said- "No like it!" in his whiny little voice.

I'm thinking- ohhh come on, just play along, son! He wouldn't budge, even ran away from me yelling, "No like it!"

Being the wise mother I am, I said- "If you put this sweater on I will give you candy!"

He walks right up to me- let's me put it on him and I kid you not says... "Me like it."

The saying that 'money can't buy love' maybe true...but candy can buy cooperation from a toddler! haha

So off we went and found a fruit roll up in the pantry {candy to him} and played photo studio on the front porch with no complaints. {Well, probably because his mouth was full.}
