Baby, it's cold outside!




This morning took us all by surprise when we saw the thermometer read 53 degrees! The weather man on the local news channel did warn us Floridians that cooler temps would fall upon us in the upcoming week, but I was still shocked to see the temp fall below 60 degrees. Since moving down South over two years ago, my blood has thinned out significantly and I'm never really ready for it to be cold, but this morning I layered up (about 3 layers to be exact!) and ventured out with the Cheese for our morning walk.
There is something about the cooler weather that brings out the feistiness in our puppy. Over the past week as the mornings have become a little cooler, she has definitely shown a little extra spring in her step! This morning after she gobbled down breakfast she couldn't wait to get outside. She ran to the door and with a little hop she was ready to go!
I can't say that I'm too upset about the drastic change in weather this morning. For me, Fall weather translates in to: boots, jeans, scarves, sweaters and more scarves. Are you sensing a trend here?! Not to mention I can break out the festive slipper socks! Yes, I'll be the first person to admit that I'm a sucker for slipper socks and because it is October..you know what that means! Anything Halloween related or orange will do the trick. Thank goodness for the trusty $1 bin at Target. My feet are warm and happy thanks to my slipper socks. I love how I can slip them on and off much easier than a pair of real socks, they are less bulky than your traditional house slipper and did I mention the pair I wore today say Happy Halloween on the bottom? Sure they may be a "one size fits all" but I'm sure you get the point now that I'm a fan even if they are two sizes too big!

Stay tuned for weekend updates on our Halloween Themed run for Saturday morning..a spectacular costume is in the works and I guarantee it will rock your socks off!
