I love autumn. 

Even with the heavyweight holiday of Christmas in winter's favour, fall still sings to me. 

Sweet songs of crisp days, vibrant colours, pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, hayrides, apple cider, sweaters, NOT hot sticky summer...

Seriously, folk. I love it.

Each year since we've had babies (and actually before that, although there was nary a digital camera to be found to capture it) we've enjoyed participating in a Fall Festival at church. 

I've participated in one, I've helped at some, I've run several.

Seriously, folk. I love 'em.

Summer Family Saturdays

Sometimes on those rare family days when we're meandering around Scotland

Our sweet children;

Those blessed little fruit of my womb ...

(Well that was awkward, 

I promise I'll never say 'fruit of my womb' again.)

(Also, it sounds like men's undergarments.)

Our precious little lambs,

 start to drive me bonkers in the vehicle...

Strawberry Fields Whenever

How pretty is Scotland in July?

I mean Scotland any time, nearly any place, is pretty.

Nearly any photo you take is instantly calendar-worthy.

But July is just lovely.

That's just a regular 'ol wheat field and it's gorgeous.
