Ahhh Fall!



I absoultely love this time of year. For some reason, though everything in nature is dying or flying south, I feel more alive than ever. I love the crisp air and the colors (my decorating is so fall with greens and oranges and yellows),and I love going to the pumpkin patch and pretending I live there...just for a little while! I don't even mind the darkness and the rain. For some reason, I think I need the darkness to remember there is the hope of sunshine, that things must die in order to live and things must decompose to grow.

Oh my goodness, I love seeing pictures of your boys, They are so so so beautiful and I can see so much of you and Tim in each one.

I did MOPS for the first time last year and had a blast! Especially since we were fairly new to our church I was able to meet so many women and develop great friendships. I look forward to it every time. Sometimes I wish it was every week tho. That would be cool. I love this year's theme.
Thanks for the encouragement with the hats. You are right, they do keep you warm. And I would be so bored without them too! =)
love you friend.

exactly.
life without seasons just doesn't make any sense. life with all sunshine and green doesn't leave room for awe.

i love to pretend i live at the farm too, i don't want to actually live there because then i would have to work way to hard, but pretending is fun.
