Gratitude Sunday: Time Away

Joining Taryn today at Wooly Moss Roots blog for Gratitude Sunday.

 The view from our hotel room. Georgian Bay in the background and a little pond in the foreground.

The view from the top of the Niagara Escarpment and the ski hill at Blue Mountain. That's Georgian Bay in the middle ground. Can you believe the colour of that water?

Feeling grateful this week for:
::a weekend away with my husband to the Blue Mountains, Collingwood and Thornbury. A long car ride with coffee in hand,  2 days without kids, fantastic weather and a gorgeous room. So very grateful!
::having something out of the ordinary to look forward to. The anticipation is almost as good as the event
::my camera to capture these shots.
::Lindt chocolate with sea salt
::small town bakeries that sell fruit scones, sticky knots and chelsea buns
::warm days this week and the wisdom to walk to work rather than drive to enjoy the weather
::hanging my laundry out to dry, then having time to bring it in BEFORE it rained
::spending the PA day with my kids.
::Batik fabric at $4/yard. It's sitting on my table wanting to become happy pants for everyday wear.
::good food and plenty of it
