My favorite color is October

      Well its that time of the year!! Fall my favorite.. I love the colors of the leaves and how they change, woodstoves warming up the house, getting to wear your longjohns all day and all night ;), working cows, shipping the babies, and hunting season. There are just a few to list about how much I enjoy fall!
       So I took some pictures the other day that I thought I would share. My lovely mamma, sister and I had a girls day we went for a drive. It was very pretty and nice to get out of the house for the weekend, I really enjoyed it.
      Also I thought I would share a recipe I used this past weekend it is a must try!! It also fits in with the fall season!
