Pumpkins on the brain

Autumn is my second favorite season (the first being Christmas - not technically a season but much so in my book!) and I'm thrilled that fallish weather is finally upon us. I love waking up to brisk weather. In fact, I've been wearing a couple of vests (I'm a vest girl) over the past couple of days because I've been so excited.
I've also:
Picked out another pumpkin for our house at a farmer's market (still haven't gotten the carving pumpkin yet)
Bought a 'pumpkin' scented candle (actually it has cardamon spice in it and creates the best aroma in the house)
Picked up the Pumpkin Spice creamer for morning coffee
Baked butternut squash for soup
Bought a bag of mini-Snickers to set out on the coffee table (for our guests? no, for us. Bad idea!)

Overkill on the Autumn pumpkin spice excitement this year? Perhaps, but our house smells delicious!

In other news, we have been uber busy this week. Mr. TP has been going on quite a few interviews and will be doing the same next week - so, I've been helping him prepare for all those and get all of his dry-cleaning ready. What is about a guy in a suit? I just think he looks so great in one! I digress. On that note, we will be making some big moving decisions in the next two weeks, and I'm sure I will have a plethora of questions for everyone. We have it narrowed down pretty much to 3 places. It is an exciting and crazy time and I'll be blogging about it all.
Have a lovely weekend!

Fall is my favorite too! And yes Christmas would have to be my #1 also if we're saying it's a season! :-)

I am obsessed with Pumpkin Spice everything as well. I have candles and difusers, coffee, coffee creamer... you name it, I have it.

I'm glad to know it isn't just me :)
