Fall is in the air. Even here in the desert. We are getting so close to being below 90 degrees! I am ready for some cool weather. Every time we get a few clouds in the sky I'm ready to make soup and make some fall crafts. Since it's still too hot for soup, I spent my time making some apple preschool printables instead.

I'm a little slow getting today's post up because I have been busy bottling apples. This is my first attempt at it. So far so good, except the smell of apples on my hands is a little overwhelming.

We talked about their colors and about making pretend apple pie. She is getting ...
With the start of preschool and Husband back to work (He works in education so he has the summers off. It's so nice!) I have been having a hard time fitting in Mommy and Me School. We still do activities and we play and go on outings, but it's hard to plan a specific activity and do all the things to make it blog worthy. I don't know how you working moms do it. I'm having to ...
I am the mother of two amazing kids and I am married to an incredibly sweet and smokin' hot guy. I taught elementary school and preschool before leaving to become a stay at home mom. Now I'm embarking on the adventure of a lifetime and learning how to be a mom.
