Back to Fall

Thanks for the few of those that gave their opinions on my Christmas card designs! If anyone else would like to contribute, please still do! I haven't made up my mind yet. I find it funny that I had the exact opposite feelings towards the cards I created. Number 3 was the first one I created and I thought it looked too simple. I do like number 2 {as all of you did too} but I also liked number 1. We'll see which one I choose! :)

Back to present day {let's not get too far ahead of ourselves!}...it is fall and the colors are finally starting to pop on the trees. I am not mobile enough to hop in my car, drive down to the lake and take pictures. But, I wanted something. Today is rainy and so I decided to have a photo shoot with my mini-pumpkin and gourd collection that are sitting on my kitchen table. Just a little bit of fall colors for ya'll. :)


Last weekend my lovely parents came to visit and to keep my company while Mike was away at Camp Willow Run with the youth from church. I was originally scheduled to go on the retreat but a gimp isn't much fun at camp. But they came to visit and brought their new pup! He is adorable and he and Yankee had a blast together - maybe a little too much fun. :) I snapped a few pictures of Paddington while he was stuck in my dad's arms. I apologize for the quality of these pictures - I took them quickly and I am still figuring out the 1.8 aperture {it is hard!}.
