This post is short and sweet – Josh and I are doing our best to get to bed early so we can get up at 3:30AM and make our way to the airport. We are going to Vermont for the weekend to celebrate his 30th birthday {which isn’t actually until November} and I am so very, very excited. We visited Vermont last year during this time, and truly fell in love. I’m pretty sure I was born to live in Vermont…anyway, I cannot wait to get back next week and share with you pictures of the beautiful Fall foliage, among other things from our little trip! But for tonight, I leave you with this delightful Dark Chocolate Berry Beet Smoothie recipe, along with an update on my Mom, and ask for your prayers for her and my family!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend planned ahead and are enjoying the cooler temperature and changing leaves!
