So here are some pictures to entertain you with the comings and goings around here. Except I am realizing there are no pictures of us in this group. Oh well.
Here is our sweet little niece Hannah during a field trip to the pumpkin patch!
Brayden being a MOOOOOO cow.
Playing with the little chicks. They were so cute :)
Can't you tell Hannah is impressed?
Grammy and Hannah (who is tired of pictures).
I shot all of those pictures in auto mode on the camera because trying to figure out all the settings manually that day was getting me all flustered.
This next group of pictures I messed around a lot trying to practice using my camera to it's full extent.
I didn't go over board with my fall decorations this year. Mostly centered around the fire place.
My cute little dollar store scarecrow, corn and last years homemade pumpkin craft making another appearance.
The mantel. I bought that chalk board at an antique store a couple weeks ago with the pumpkin already drawn on it. That is not it's final resting spot, but that is where it landed for the fall season because I liked the pumpkin so much.
This is the other frame I bought that day. These will actually flip flop with this frame going above the mantel and the chalk board going on this wall. Eventually. The house is a work in progress.
Here is the detail of the frame. Isn't it gorgeous? It was such a steal too compared to similar ones I've fallen in love with and refuse to pay the price people wanted for it.
Oh and here is a close up of the pumpkin drawing. It makes me happy every time I look at it.
Soon I'm going to round up some punkin's from Mom and Dad's garden and carve them up so our front porch can be all festive for the trick-or-treat fun next week.
Long absence. Ho-hum post. I'll try to liven things up around here a bit for next time.
