Door County Birthday Trip

DRS, Magnolia and I took a long weekend in Door County to celebrate my birthday.  We love spending time in Door County in the fall.  The towns are less crowded, the weather is mild and we had all the relaxation time we wanted.  This was Magnolia's first fall trip to Door County with us, and she loved it!  We took her to the beach, played fetch with her in a park and took her on long walks.  She was quite the exhausted puppy by the time the weekend was over!


We also enjoyed some of our favorite eats while visiting.  We had breakfast at Al Johnson's with hot chocolate and their famous pancakes.  We also revisited Mr. Helsinki for dinner.  They have the best Banana Fosters dessert that is a must!
Door County has become one of my favorite places on earth.  I am so lucky to have spent my birthday there with my amazing husband and sweet puppy!

First Snow

We had our first snow of the season!  It was a beautiful snowfall, one that is meant for magazines.  It was pure white and covered the trees like a blanket.  I captured this picture while I was at work yesterday, watching the snowflakes fall.  What a sight!
