Ahh Fall...

I love the fall! I love the colors, the food, (Pumpkin cheesecake anyone?) the fresh smell in the air. But I hate the winter!! I hate the cold, the poor air quality, and sometimes I really hate snow. So I was in pretty good mood the last little while. I was able to go up the canyon and snap some photos of the beautiful fall foliage -

But then I woke up this morning to this -

So it was little downer on my mood, but the sun has come out. So maybe there will be a little redemption left in the day!

October has arrived!

I was so excited for Halloween I already made up a little Jack-o-lantern, by the name of Austin!

Isn't he Cute?

He really wanted to grab the Camera

He looks so cute, that I am sure if he could talk he would be thanking his Nana for getting that outfit for him!
