Gratitude Monday; Here Comes the Sun; Cookies; Pictures
Monday November 28, 2011
Welcome to Gratitude Monday. Each Monday, stop by & comment on what you are grateful for & how it will impact you to live a healthier life going forward. How it impacts you does not have to be food or exercise related. It can be in any way, shape or form! If you just want to write a grateful comment & nothing else, that is fine too. If your comment is the same as another one, so be it. Everything goes here!
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday filled with fun & laughter. Laughter is good for your health!
We had a beautiful weekend here in southern CA. We warmed up to the 80's here & we took to the sun!!!! I am grateful & thankful that my very very very hard working hubby was able to have a 4 day weekend AND that we got to spend it together just enjoying this beautiful weather!!! Some sights of our weekend:
We went to Fashion Island Shopping Center in Newport Beach, CA. The pic above is from there & you can see one of the islands out there. There are 3 of them. The rich were out & shopping but we were just enjoying, relaxing & watching the fun! Fashion Island is an upscale outside shopping center. Athleta is there & I totally forgot to take a pic! DOH! I went in though!!! Love their clothes! I have gift certs from my bday & was scoping out what I want to buy with them! EXCITING!
The Koi pond & kids & adults enjoying:
The Tree, Santa's house & HUGE decorations inside the atrium part of this outside mall:
Last but NOT least, some new cookies I found there from Baking Betty's & a new motto of mine below!!!
I got a S'mores for the hubby & an Oatmeal White Chip w/Cinnamon one for me - DELISH! It is not on their website but it was great!!! Here is their FB Page. I also met the blonde in their logo - one of the owners & very nice!!!
Such a wonderful weekend!!!!
Listen to some classic Here Comes the Sun. Each one has different video. You may be humming this the rest of the day!

What a cute little store. It looks so warm there in CA. I am not ready for winter yet.
I am very grateful that I was able to get outside and ride over the weekend!

Lori, it was in the 80's here yesterday so we had to enjoy before it got cooler for us. That is actually a cookie cart - one of the carts they have at malls & it was so cute!

Oh, to sit in an outdoor mall....only 5 or 6 months until I can do that again.
Glad you had such a lovely weekend!

We are lucky Cammy but we pay the price in how crowded it is ... I did love enjoying it though!

Looks like a great weekend!! I must admit, I would not go to Fashion Island this time of year for all the tea in China.
On this Monday, I am grateful you let me back in. Peace

It was not as bad as I thought Roy but I tell you, the people watching was worth it & I bet you know what I am talking about since you live in this crazy southern CA area!
We all deserve a 2nd look & we have all made our own mistakes as well! I have done things too & people have forgiven me so I have to remember that all the time.
