Polls, Parties & More This Weekend

I'm really loving writing me some Friday Letters, so of course we're gonna go for it again this week as well...

Dear Fall Weather: Welcome to Florida! We're so glad you're here. Please feel free to make yourself comfortable and stay a while. We'd be so grateful if you did. Seriously.

Dear Weekend: We've got a lot of stuff planned for you, so get ready to be real busy. But at least it's fun things like a Thirty-One party, a joint party for some toddlers, and a family fish fry. I'll also squeeze in one of my high school-er's cross country race, and the Awaken service on Sunday night. Oh, and the boyfriend and I would like to go on a bike ride sometime too. Aaaand, I would like to attempt to go VOTE early this weekend too. See? Busy - but fun. 

{Side note: please, please, please -- let's all exercise our right and privilege to vote, and head to the polls sometime before Tuesday evening. It's so important, and something I fully believe all adults should do.}

Dear Belly: I literally just ate breakfast an hour and a half ago, and you're hungry already. Chill out. There's still hours before lunch, so you just gotta wait it out there, crazy pants...

Dear Blog: Holy crap we're growing so much still! More friends and followers, and more page views too. This is truly so exciting, and I'm loving every minute of it. Let's keep working hard on improving this little space here on the inter-webs and see where it takes us :)

Dear Trunk-or-Treat 2013: I'm already looking forward to you, so you better happen. We had so much fun decorating Mama's car and seeing all the cute little kids in their cute little costumes. I will go ahead and start planning our trunk for next year, because we want a way to take pictures of cute kids (that we don't know) without seeming creepy -- if that's possible -- so maybe some sort of photo booth set-up or something might work...??

This year our trunk theme was "Gone Fishin," so I'm just wearing my Dad's Columbia shirt.

Happy Friday friends, and happy weekend as well!! Enjoy your couple of days of freedom!

Just stopped over from the Friday letter's link up. The name of your blog drew me in... those are basically 3 of my favorite things!! Polka dots were our underlying wedding 'theme' and I am obsessed w/ penguins and pasta ;)

I totally understand your weather and wanting Fall to stick around. I am in El Paso, and the cooler weather is much desired and appreciated. :)

I just love all of your little letters today. Mine would definitely be: Dear Friday, thank you for finally showing up.

Have a happy weekend! xo

I'm here in good ol' Florida too! I've been hearing more and more people talking about they did Truck or Treat and yet still not entirely sure what it is. And isn't it fun to watch your blog grow? I'm still amazed how far mine has come in a short time. Watch out, it will grow with one blink before you know it :)

Trunk-or-Treating, I love it! Such a good idea for people who don't normally get trick-or-treaters! :)

I lived in FL for many years and loved it. I never once longed for Fall. Now that I'm up north, I just love it (not so keen on what comes after though ;) ).

Happy weekend!
