fall festive-ness


as i write this, there is snow falling outside my window. it's light and there isn't much - it just barely started sticking to the ground. nevertheless, i mention it to illustrate the contrast from both my last post and this one. 75 one day, snow the next. crazy colorado. but i love it. colorado weather keeps you on your toes!

anyways.... as mentioned in the last post, we spent some good quality time outside last weekend while the weather was still warm and delicious. in fact, we hit up the ol' pumpkin patch to pick out our pumpkins for halloween.




it looks like we made out pretty good, but really it was kind of a bust. we thought we were going early enough but actually so much of the patch had been picked over... we felt like we picked the best of the worst of them. so we just got a couple and decided we'll head somewhere else to finish off our quota. even though we weren't entirely successful, it was still an awesome way to spend the last of these gorgeous golden days.

and now, with the snow falling outside, we enter the world of fall-winter-ness. for a month or so anyway. then it will just be straight up winter. i'm hoping it holds out until after thanksgiving. then it can snow all it wants...
