simple days...

squeezing out the last days of summer...

butter and salt & pepper... awe

piggies of course... thanks Jill

her feet read... fun day outside

sun is still shining in Colorado

summer color is still in bloom


hummingbirds are still around.

The days are HOT but the mornings
and nights are crisp and cool.
We are really looking forward to experiencing Fall
here in Colorado! Our favorite time of year
and our first Fall living in Colorado.

I just can't believe Labor day is
right on our heels... it is right here
at our back door... knocking!

Today is back to school for lots of your kiddos!
They'll be great mom!

Here's to Monday!
A fresh... kick-start to the week!
I'm off to jump on that scooter & roll!

Have a fabulous day! Mine started off good then got a little shady and now I think I'm doing better. My sweet girl went to school for the first time today and I got out of the class before the tears starting rolling...yay me! But when they started rolling it was the "ugly cry" that came fast behind! She has never been in daycare or anything of the sort, so this is going to be a hard day for the both of us..okay well I would like to think she is missing me as much as I'm missing her! I can dream can't I?? haha

fall truly is the most wonderful time of the year. I imagine it will be beautiful out there. can't wait to see pics.

Oh you will love the fall here in Colorado! I just love the leaves..and you are probably going to have lots of aspens turning colors! It is definitely my favorite season! I just saw someone else commented about the tornados - they were a few miles from us yesterday! Yikes! :0)

I'm such a cornball!! Why did I not get some of those piggy corn holders for myself?

I was sad all day today with Eric in that ginormous middle school. He and Adam both had a great day today. Woo Hoo!!

I wish I could feel that cool Colorado air!! It is still as hot as can be here in Houston. Whew!!

Hugs~ Jill :)
