next week's theme… "wednesday"

change is in the air...

 So I've been waiting and waiting, and then waiting some more… 

for those pretty fall colors to come out and play!!

 There's just something so perfect about that crisp clean fall air…

I recently had the pleasure of taking advantage of this gorgeous scenery
with a lovely family of four, soon to be expecting a new little one into their lives.
here's a teensy sneak peek from our time together… 

a sweet quiet moment sharing rocks and leaves and just a little dirt

love it that the joy is just beaming from their faces

she is seriously the sweetest… & her giggles will melt you

and this guy… he could tell stories with his eyes, and his lashes go on for days! 

like I said… m.e.l.t.

Have I mentioned that fall is my favorite??

celebrate good times...

come on!  we're gonna have a good time… 

and indeed we did, yippee for birthday weeks!!  Laura's little one just turned 6 months, and I am celebrating my not so 6 months, hehe.  Mine was spent with wonderful people, sharing good conversation & of course lots of yummie food… 

It's always amazing to me how fast the time goes by, and before you know it, 

another year has come and gone.  So here's to good times with great friends!

now on to the celebrations… & I must thank the lovely Brandi.  

She made me these scrumptious looking cupcakes, 

and I just couldn't resist photographing one (and eating a few of course).

week lucky number thirteen :: celebration

Laura :: me

a special Happy Birthday to all you October babies!!
and next up will be… "light"
