We have been LOVING our 80 degree weather and fall colors. The trees are beautiful and it's been great that we can actually be outside enjoying all the beauty.
I found a few quotes about fall that I really love and thought I would share them.
“Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile.”
William Cullen Bryant
"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."
Albert Camus
“How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.”
John Burroughs
"Autumn is the eternal corrective. It is ripeness and color and a time of maturity; but it is also breadth, and depth, and distance. What man can stand with autumn on a hilltop and fail to see the span of his world and the meaning of the rolling hills that reach to the far horizon?"
Hal Borland
"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree."
Emily Bronte
"Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn."
Elizabeth Lawrence
"No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face."
John Donne
This is Bella's new 'smile' for pictures. I actually secretly love and adore it.
On another note, our little man is becoming quite the determined and adventurous type. I stepped away from doing dishes to go help Bella with her potty training (that is a whole other story). When I came back into the kitchen I found this...
Notice the carton of strawberries? I'm not sure if that was his initial conquest or just an added bonus once he got to the top.
I love this little devious face!
Such a silly boy.
Have I mentioned that I have the most wonderful, talented, and amazing friends here in Missouri? Well if I haven't mentioned it lately just look at what Jessika dropped off the other night. Not only was her apple pie super cute in a little mini jar, but it was pure delicious goodness. I'm telling you she is wonderful, talented and amazing!
I may or may not have had it for breakfast, and I may or may not have added a scoop of peanut butter chocolate ice cream to top off the yummy deliciousness.
I simply adore autumn!

Okay the pic of him standing looking at the camera w/ the strawberry is the cutest look ever. He looks a lot like your mom. And, I love the mini scrubs.
Look at you, you little blogging fiend! I can't BELIEVE how big your kids have gotten! Bella looks practically grown-up! And Logan is as handsome as ever! Um I think my kids are the same size as they were when you left. I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying it there! We can't wait to JOIN YOU!!!
