Sights & smells of Autumn

1. Finally some new blossoms on my Lavendar plant! My kids and I always walk by this plant and rub the leaves and smell our hands! One of my favorite scents!
2. Nothing says "Fall!" like a beautiful Mum! Did you know that they can survive in temps as low as -20 degrees? I didn't but the info tag that came with said it could.
3. Oh my, not only do these fresh loaves of Pumpkin bread look yummy, they taste yummy! My whole house smells delicious!
4. Our beautiful Aspens are losing leaves and changing colors.

Baseball season has started!

Henry had his first game of the season on Saturday. I was so proud of my boy! He was first to bat and got a hit, made it to third base and the next batter up got a hit and Henry made the first run of the game! This is the first year that the games are with kids only, no longer coach pitched and they also start keeping score which I think is good for them. A little competition never hurt anyone plus his team WON the game 7-1!  Sorry I am biased! I’d still be proud even if his team didn’t win.

Photos from the past and present.

My boys. Owen, Henry & Jack at last years Field Day at H’s school.

This was taken today with my Nikon D70 which I had lost interest in. There was a time that I took photos daily with that camera and for some reason it became unenjoyable  trying to take the perfect picture. Well, I took it out last night and decided I would enjoy my skills for what they are. Lacking but these photos are great memories to have.

 

Jack was being a bit of a grump in this photo but I love how it turned out.

Henry at a baseball game last summer
