I can't wait to fall in Love

It's time for celebrate the Practical Magic Blog party today!!

Let's celebrate by popping in the movie and reciting each line word for word since I have it memorized then we can create our own true love spell.

• My perfect man would have...
• Hazel eyes that sparkle like fire when he looks toward the sun...
• A sense of humor that can make even the most cold-hearted witch laugh...
• Warm strong arms that give such comforting hugs...
• Kisses that make me feel all soft and loved...

and luckily my man exists!! He is my wonderful fiance who I owe a huge debt of my happiness too, he gave me my two most precious possessions,  our little babies.  He makes me feel good about myself when all I see around me is pain.  I'm glad that my "amas veritas" is a fairy tale come true.

What I found so moving in the movie was the love that the Owens had for each other, they stuck by each other through the turmoil they faced.  I can only hope that my family can be each others support like the Owens were for each other.

I wait with baited breath for the day my daughter and I can practice magic in the kitchen

and we shall wear dress up clothes all day and night

we shall have many black cats with strange names like Sabbat and Grimalkin

and we shall love, we shall love with everything that we have inside us

We celebrated our thanksgiving with a yummy dinner of tater-tot casserole, then set up our altar in Fall colors and pumpkins, also some photos of what we are most thankful for.  My oldest helped me this year, I'm very proud of him.  We held a gratitude ritual and wrote out what we were most thankful for then tied it and burned it to the Goddess and God, then we went outside and beneath the Harvest moon we performed a Home & Hearth protection ritual.  It was a beautiful evening and so glad that Fall is finally upon us! Time for beautiful leaves, crisp air and Halloween!! I'm so proud of my son for helping me with the ritual tonight, I hope he takes something meaningful for it.

A cauldron of the earth from my yard for the home & hearth protection ritual.  So shall I say it, so mote it be.

I am so thankful for my children and my fiance, without them my world would be so empty.  I am thankful everyday that the Goddess allowed my partner to come into my life so we could create such amazing miracles together.

I am thankful for my strong body even though I put it through so much pain and turmoil, my feet still stand strong beneath myself holding me up to face the world.

I am thankful for my friends that are there for me through thick and thin, who liked me despite my anger and my little ticks.  I am glad I have them to make my life so much more fun.

I am thankful for the home over my head, thankful we have been here going on 2 years and have not had to move.  Thankful we have a place we can really call home and stay at till we are ready to move on.

I am thankful the Goddess came into my life when I was so young and open so I can learn and create in her honor.

I am thankful for another year to learn and grow, to love and prosper with my family and friends.  

Here's to another interesting and glorious year!!

Mabon Prosperity candles

My friend and I performed a simple circle the other night to carve our prosperity candles.  It was his first one and he did pretty decent, he didn't laugh at me anyway!! Thought I would share the photos from that night.
