Happy Fall!!

Happy Fall!

This is such a wonderful time of year! I love the summer but I really enjoy all the changes that fall brings. I'm excited to see Fall here in the wine country for the first time! So far, each season has brought such uniquely different and yet wonderful beauty!
Last Fall I was living in Virginia, enjoying being in a place where, for the first time (well for me anyways!) I got the immense pleasure of watching the leaves turn every color imaginable and then drift gently, floating through the air as the leaves began to fall. Ahh, and the perfect crisp, crunching sounds of feet walking through the piles of leaves on the ground.

Walking to class today I passed a tree and saw these beautiful leaves where the sun's rays were shining through the branches, lighting up every vein from above.
Today I also got the incredibly smile causing surprise when I went out to the backyard and found that the sunflower's (that Eva gave me the seeds for) first bloom opened up!
It's going to be a wonderful Autumn!!

Friday Favorites - #11



So I know it's now Saturday but I wrote this post last night when it was technically still Friday!

My friday favorites from this past week are

I LOVED getting my package in the mail Thursday!

The Rose Garden
Last weekend the parents and I headed out to the second to last open weekend of the Rose Garden. It's just a little cottage with a beautiful garden that has many different flowers along with 200 or so kinds of roses that they press and make rose oil out of. The rain we had recently killed a lot of the flowers so next year we'll have to come earlier in the spring. It smelled wonderful though!
