a day in photos

my favorite time of year...autumn is in the air and the weather is just beautiful!  what a great friday we have had.  lots of time spent playing outside, including our usual morning walk, a bike ride and an afternoon walk to rock ledge ranch to visit a folk art fair that is going on all weekend.  and don't forget, a stop at the playground.  we found a fantastic hand made wooden train at the fair as well as a hand made sock monkey named "izzie".  definitely a hit and a fantastic day to be spent mostly outdoors.  lots of afternoon playing and mess making finished up with a warm bubble bath and cozy footed pjs for bed.  for me...a nice glass of wine and time to relax with my wonderful husband.  happy weekend!

morning!

steaming up some blueberry, apple, cinnamon, walnut oatmeal.  perfect for a chilly fall-like morning.
