There is a Fine Line

There is a fine line between Autumn and Winter. It is when the Earth tilts just far enough to change the smell in the air from fall leaves to the crisp cold scent of snow. We went from our first anniversary to getting ready for our first Christmas in our home. Below is a picture of a plaque commemorating our first anniversary.

Last weekend it was fall and we entertained a bit. I had been needing to connect with my girlfriends who are just amazing and felt a wine party was just the ticket. So Cobi had to deal with a house full of laughing women and even played taxi when needed! I showcased my cast which I finally finished.

This past weekend Jordan flew to Seattle to visit with her Dad there. We put her on a plane late Friday night so that she could spend some time visiting.
Here are some pics from her trip:

Cobi and I took the opportunity to drive up to Donnelly north of Boise in the mountains to visit with our friends Ray and Christie.
We did some geocaching and drove the mountain roads in the snow! It was cold but we had a great time.

Afterward we warmed up in Gold Fork Hot Springs. This place is beautiful with large yummy pools full of relaxing hot water. Ahhhh.

Mostly we hung out at the house and just spent time with each other. It was a very nice and relaxing weekend. Much needed before we prepare for Thanksgiving this week!
