autumn splendor



i LOVE fall! i try to get out and take a drive more often than not & if there's an alternate route to our destination, i'm likely to take it this time of year! sunday i talked chris into going for a drive to see the leaves and put savanna to sleep. we happened upon a little "festival" in a neighboring small town and flea markets were everywhere. i made chris stop so i could "look" but as soon as i neared the item i had scoped out the seller announced "Everything on that tarp is FREE!" what!?! i grabbed the nearby canning pot and set to work. . .it's not technically shopping if it's free, right?!? next we loaded up some 20 old windows the guy was getting rid of and we returned home. too bad we didn't have a bigger car--there was a dresser i wanted off the side of the road too! due to technical difficulties with our camera pictures are few and far between these days, but i did manage to capture a few in order to say "NEEINER, NEEINER" to my non-new england living friends and family. good thing we bought our leaf blower this year, for as much as i love the fall, i HATE raking up all the leaves. . .jumping in them, i will do!

mission completed!

Man! 20 old windows! You guys must have been in heaven-and I bet your mom is sooo jealous! Looks so pretty...it feels like new englad here today --it was 22 degrees when I took rach to school-I was thinking that if it is this cold we should at least get to have pretty leaves--thanks for rubbing it in :-)
