Punkin

A quick snap at the farmer's market while browsing pumpkins. Gus liked the small gourds he could pick up.

and so it starts...

Gus has been working on this trick for a while - cruising the furniture, pushing wagons around the house and now he can do it! And in the two days since this footage was taken he is now walking around as if it is no big deal at all. Strange to be in the kitchen alone and have your baby, a formerly stationary object, come join you! Oh the mischief he will find now!

Boo!

Halloween "baking" made easy. I have wanted to make these for a year. I whipped them up before going to Jeff and Julie's in about 10 minutes. Nutter Butters dipped in melted white chocolate chips w/ mini chocolate chips for eyes. Very tasty, too.

Southern Snack

We always stop between Charleston and Savannah at the cutest little general store with homemade pies, jellies, southern snacks, etc. Hard to believe we have been living in NC, the birth place of Cheerwine, for 7 years and have never tried it. Boiled peanuts, we have tried and love. For the record, Cheerwine is delish!!


Gus enjoying his kid-sized chair and stealing sips of Cheerwine. He was all about it.

Seasonal Sunshine

Our backyard is a fall paradise right now. We can't stop looking at it. Everything is ablaze. We knew we were filling it with fall blooming things last year but you kind of forget about the potential show during the year.

Sunflowers, daisies, angels trumpets, goldenrode, ornamental grass....

Did I mention it also smells very sweet? Ahhhh.
