A Little Blip Of The Weekend

October 16, 2017


What a whirlwind of a weekend! We did a lot of projecting on Saturday, and after church on Sunday we stayed out in the yard to get some more work done. It was an unseasonably 80 degrees in Virginia yesterday, and to make up for it, it's a low-in-the-50s kind of day today. Talk about mood swings. I hope it stays chilly, though. After all, it's the middle of October, and that's what this time of year calls for. Husband doesn't know it yet, but I have plans for a fire in the fireplace tonight and some hot apple cider. We are soaking up the chill in the air with everything we've got because who knows how long it's going to last.
Like I mentioned, we stayed out in the yard almost all day on Sunday. Because with warm weather, sunshine, and a gentle breeze bustling through the leaves, it made for a good time to be outside. My favorite girl loves running downhill. I think it's the out of control feeling it gives her, combined with the rush. So while husband blew leaves and hickory nuts out of the yard, I watched Greer climb the incline into the neighbor's yard, count to three, then bound all wobbly like down the hill. She may have done this fifty times. Maybe more. Her sweet little face full of joy and excitement was too much not to capture. And the piggy tails, gah, I love those two little piggy tails! 

I hope your weekend was relaxing and refreshing, spurring you on for a great start to another week. May this whole week be chilly and full of all things fall. Stay tuned for a little Halloween home tour, coming to the blog tomorrow or Wednesday!
