Seriously. Do you feel it? Fall Fever is everywhere. Fall Fever feels like Spring when the sun comes out – giddy all day because I get to be cozy with sweatshirts and candles.
I know, we’re supposed to have lovely weather this week and I’m going to have the windows open every minute. (pause here to open yours too)
I’m cleaning and smiling -who does that? I hear my kids playing, birds singing, school buses driving by, and I’m organizing up the wazoo. (AND not cause I’m nesting!) weird.
I think we’re programed by our years of school to start over in September and it feels like everything is falling into place…happy home.
Here’s what I need to do this fall:
#1 Apple Orchard
#2 Corn Maze
#3 weekend away up North
#4 Get Organized – home, school, and life in general
#5 Create simple goals and achieve them.
Are you feeling the fever? What’s on your list to do this fall.
List of things not to do:
#1 Don’t complain about my short summer!
#2 Don’t miss the beauty of the fall by focusing on winter woes!
Help.

Remember this face? The "I'm going to perm my hair no matter what you say?" face? Well, that was before!

This is the "happy permed me!"

The side view!

The back! Already I want to cut an inch off the length and get funky layers put in! The change of hair is SOOO FUN!

We needed to get out one afternoon so we went for a walk…it was over 100 degrees and super humid. We didn’t walk far but we had a blast! Expensive camera equipment is very fun for teenage boys! We did a bunch of posing, jumping, running, and anything else we could think of.
Here’s some from the hike! I decided to put a different color preset on these images just for fun!
I love these first few shots because I remember my nephews being the size of my kids and younger. So weird to think my kids are going to be the big someday.


Everybody act mad!

I love Jumping shots!

Adriah was very brave to trust her cousin not to jump on her! Isn't jumping so cool!

This is Adriah's attempt. I had to post this cause this captures my daughter to a tee...Look at her face and then look at how close the ground is to her feet! LOL

We found lots of cool bugs.

Posing shot...take by my nephew Jacob!

Show a little sass!

The ride back!
