Yesterday was September 1st – definitely a mini-holiday in my book! I don’t care what the calendar says or how the moon and stars are aligned or blah, blah, blah – September is the start of fall, people!

Normally I would have decorated the whole house yesterday – but we’re living with my parents. I’m pretty bummed about not being able to decorate for the season, but hey, at least I get to experience a full New England fall for the first time in 9 years! That and my Woodwick “Autumn Harvest” candle will have to get me through it. :)
Did anyone decorate yesterday? I’m totally jealous if so. :)
The real point of this post is to announce the blogiversary giveaway winner: RACHEL from A Steady Rain!! Rachel is another PA transplant and she has an inspiring blog for Christian women. Congratulations, Rachel! I let time get away from me and was supposed to announce this on Tuesday – sorry about that! Send me an e-mail at blessedlifeblog {at} gmail {dot} com with your address! (Random.org picked her as #26 out of 41 – I don’t remember how to do a screen shot without my husband here. I may be in my twenties but as far as computers go, I may as well be in the Stone Age.)
We’re traveling to PA this weekend since my husband has Monday off. It’s kinda bittersweet, since we had an accepted offer on our house and we thought we’d be going to sign papers this weekend. However, the couple backed out on us and now we are back to square one. I am so nervous this house will never sell and we’ll be in limbo for a long time. I keep reminding myself (about 1,000 times a day) that God has always and WILL always take care of us). We could definitely use prayers for our house to sell!
Even though we’re not going to sign any papers, I’m looking forward to lots of quality time with my in-laws and this lovely lady. Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone! See ya! :)
