enjoying the autumn beauty
The colors around here are stunning right now. I love looking out the windows as I do my day to day tasks. Folding clothes and washing dishes is much more pleasant when there is beauty like this to look at!
Our backyard, or 'The Woods' as Thomas and Elle like to call it. Soon they are going to be having fun raking these leaves into big piles to jump in!
I love so many things about homeschooling but one of them is the freedom to enjoy the moment. At lunchtime we noticed how nice the weather was so I packed the kids lunch in a cooler and they enjoyed eating it while floating around on the paddle boat. It was a good day.

Darcy,
MN is beautiful right now! Thanks for posting the pics. I am jealous. No fall trees here in the south until Thanksgiving. Someitmes there are fall colored trees outside as we open Christmas gifts. Haha!
This blog is about my day to day life as a wife to my husband Scott, and mama to our 3 children - Thomas (13), Elle (11) and Ava (6). I love all things domestic - cooking, baking, knitting, and sewing so you will find a little of each here along with lots of pictures of the kids.

Oh, lovely. We were just in Minneapolis last weekend and I walked around with my jaw hanging open. We're almost peak here ... just a bit longer!
