ENJOY THESE 6 AUTUMN ACTIVITIES
FUN FOR THEWHOLE FAMILY!
MOVIE NIGHT Gather your loved ones in the living roomwith popcorn, blankets, and a great film. Make the most of your autumn evenings by cozying up and spending quality time with each other while watching some family holiday favorites, like “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” or the Thanksgiving comedy-drama “Pieces of April.” HOME-COOKED FOOD When autumn rolls around, pie and warm cider may be high on your list of tasty treats you’re eagerly anticipating. This fall, encourage your family to take part in making annual goodies and sharing themwith your neighbors. Nothing warms the heart more than receiving a loaf of freshly baked pumpkin bread during these increasingly cold days.
Throughout November, everyone is eagerly looking forward to Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, but you shouldn’t let the rest of the month slip past you! Enjoy these other fall activities with the whole family. HOMEMADE CARAMEL APPLES Homemade treats are no doubt far better than their store-bought counterparts. Try your hand at making your own caramel apples for the whole family to enjoy. You can also add a number of toppings to liven things up, such as nuts, white or milk chocolate, coconut, sprinkles, or pecans. BACKYARD BONFIRE During these cold months, you may be tempted to stay indoors, but heading outside for a bonfire is a great way to spend time with your family while enjoying the brisk weather. If you have a fire pit in your backyard, now is the perfect time to take advantage of it by bundling up with some hot chocolate and s’mores. AUTUMN ARRANGEMENTS It’s time to get crafty! Creating your own fall arrangements will ensure that your home has the seasonal decorations you want. Making beautiful fall flower arrangements for your kitchen table or wreaths for your front door to greet guests will create the desired autumn vibe you’ve been searching for.
KNITTED SCARVES If you’re handy with knitting needles, now is the season to put them to work. Hand-knitted scarves are great gifts to give throughout the fall and winter, and you can also make
it a family activity! Take some time to teach your kids how to knit and crochet to create scarves of their very own.
KARA’S CORNER This will certainly be the most sentimental edition of “Kara’s Corner,” as it will be my last. My boyfriend, Tony, and I recently made the decision to move back toWashington, where both of us grew up. The draw of our hometowns and families was too much to ignore, but the wonderful people and places in the Treasure Valley made it a tough decision.
Gratitude for a Great Gig
When we moved here, it was with the intention that we’d move back after Tony completed school. That time has come, but it wasn’t the clear-cut breaking point we thought it might be. Over the years, we’ve fallen in love with Idaho, from nights spent in Boise to weekends in McCall and Stanley. The area has been wonderful to us, and though we’re moving across the state border, the Gem State will always be a part of our lives. For me, leaving Eagle Dental Care will be even harder than saying goodbye to Idaho. Dr. Thomason hired me straight out of hygiene school, and I couldn’t imagine a better first practice to work for. I’ve learned so much fromDr. T and the team, and they’ve made coming to work every day a joy. I’ll consider myself lucky to find a practice half as awesome as this one. The kindness and warmth of our team here is something I’ll forever be grateful for.
Speaking of thankfulness, I want to close by expressing my sincerest appreciation to the patients I’ve gotten to know during my time here. Spending time with you and learning about your lives has been the most rewarding aspect of my job. I hope that I’ve given you a reason to smile, because I know you’ve given me so many. I want to wish all of our teammembers and patients the best in the future. When Tony and I return to Idaho for a visit, you can bet I’ll stop by the practice. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, for everything.
