Welcome to Thank You Notes!!
Thankfulness and Jimmy Fallon were my muse for Thank You Notes.
Each Friday Jimmy shares his thank you notes on The Tonight Show:
And each Friday I share mine here:
Thank you, babe, for such a fun & yummy birthday! Now, we need to work it all off. There was cake, tarts, croissants, chips & salsa, a margarita, and coffees!!! YIKES! There was also handholding and walking, laughing, and fun. 😉 I hear there may be a little more gluttony this weekend.
Thank you, babies, for all the pumpkin! They know me so well. Bring on all the pumpkin! 🙂 
Thank you, for all the sweet birthday wishes! 
Thank you, Google, for making me seem really really cool & important to my kiddos. 🙂 
Thank you, for reading my first installment of Across Country With Three Kids, a Dog, and Our Sanity. I’m not going to lie to you, I cried like baby writing that post. 
Thank you, fences? I love seeing my babies do their thing on the field behind the fences 🙂
Thank you, Bath & Body Works, for a super sweet deal I couldn’t refuse. 
One for me & one for you, the winner of the giveaway, that is. (I upsized the candle in the giveaway) 
Thank you, everyone who took a guess for my Happy Fall, Back To Blogging, Birthday Giveaway! I was happy to see that my annual (this was my second year 😀 ) candy corn guessing game did well. If you missed it, I’m sorry, maybe next year. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, I had a fun game in honor of fall, getting back to blogging, and my birthday. I’m giving away 1lb of Starbucks’ Fall blend, a $5.00 Starbucks Gift Card, & a B&BW pumpkin Carmel swirl candle to the person who guessed closest to: 
And the winner with a guess of 250 is…… 
Michelle!!
Congrats, sweet lady!! Thanks for playing along and being such a dear to me. 🙂
Well friends,that concludes my Thank You Notes. Happy October and Happy Friday!!! Make this Friday count.
XOXO
Thank you, Friday!!
Thinking of you Charleston! Be safe & Charleston Strong!!!!

October 2, 2015 at 2:07 pmOH MY! I got on to link my thank you notes, saw my picture, and was like, what is that there for (it was before I began reading) and I WON! How exciting. So I’ll add to my thankful list this week – my lovely gifts!!! Thank you so much! What a nice way to begin the weekend! I was telling my daughter how cool this idea was of yours to have the guessing game. It breaks up the other giveaways everyone else does. Loved the idea!!

October 4, 2015 at 8:25 pmMaybe I came close with the candy corn guess! Maybe!
I love that Google made you look even more special to your kids.
Also, where’s your husband’s mustache??
MrsA0K2001
October 7, 2015 at 1:53 pmSort of 🙂 Maybe next time 😉
I’m sure the mustache will make a comeback next month. 🙂

October 5, 2015 at 6:35 amThat sounds like a yummy birthday celebration! I think on your birthday you are entitled to eat whatever you feel like 🙂 (On my birthday I had some crazy caramel/vanilla pudding/banana pancake concoction and my first PSL of the season!)
Congrats to Michelle. I think it’s awesome that you had a virtual candy corn guessing contest. I haven’t done something like that in years!

October 7, 2015 at 1:57 pmWhen I was writing out all the gluttony that took place I thought… I’m The Very Hungry Caterpillar!!! 😀
Oh my gawsh your crazy caramel/vanilla pudding/banana pancake concoction sounds amazeballs!!!
I’m glad you enjoyed the guessing jar, I should do it for spring… jelly beans or winter… peppermint discs? 🙂
XOXO

October 5, 2015 at 10:57 amLook at that Google page for you! Haha love it! I’m glad that you had a great birthday!
I love pumpkin everything also, that is one of the best perks of Fall am I right? I just had my first pumpkin spice latte this past weekend and it was delicious. I forgot how much I loved them! 🙂

October 7, 2015 at 1:59 pmGoogle stalks me hard, so the least they can do is give me some b-day love. 🙂 I thought it was awesome that they did that. 🙂
PUMPKIN, PUMPKIN, PUMPKIN!! Lately, I have been ordering Americanos with a pump of pumpkin in it. 🙂
XOXO
