Manchester

Today we had such a great time. We headed to Manchester for lunch at the Little Rooster Cafe. I had the most amazing grilled sandwich and we sat and had coffee while the wind and the chilly air blew around outside. It was cozy and sweet and super fun to people watch out the window. We kept commenting on all the sweet married couples that were going for walks. Some looked like young honeymooners, others looked old and gray and still in love. And one couple was pregnant! It was adorable...
After, we went to a few outlets and hit some really good sales. I'm excited about the new clothes I got. Super cheap and cute, gotta love Banana Republic and J.Crew. Anyways, it was a blast and we had so many laughs as well.
We headed home for dinner and then to Joanne's church for a fall harvest event/birthday party for their pastor. It was really fun to be able to participate in the fun with all of her church friends. I met some really sweet people and got to spend the evening having awesome conversations and eating yummy desserts.
It felt nice to come back home after such a long day. I made some tea and then worked on school work. I'm pretty happy that I have been staying on top of my class work as I've been away! Feels nice to not be behind, even though I wish I didn't have to stay up in the night doing homework but it's all good!
I'm going to enjoy some reading in King's Cross and journaling before I hit the hay. It's always the best way to finish off any day. Especially when all you have to write down are prayers of thanksgiving and a list of the day's blessings.
God is so good.
