But first, a little recap via Instagram dump to finish up the summer activities and bring us up to this past weekend:
{I got a cute little zebra mug - the only problem is that the zebra likes to swim in my coffee!}
{Sir Archibald and Lady Hildegard of Drumclog Moss - Our Kingdom names and outfits for Jr. Camp}
{The green shutter redo - a new headboard!}
{An evening walk on the dike}
{A little desk remodel}
{More shutter renovation}
{Cool early mornings with my coffee, my Bible, and my journal <3>
{We took a little road trip to Texas and back, stopping in Davenport, IA for the weekend and ending with a couple days at my grandmother's house in KS}
{Sunset in... Kansas, I think?}
{The French Fry Feed - who would say no to free fried food?}
{The first apple pie of the season}
{These days are perfect for long walks in any of the beautiful parks of Grand Forks}
{Cooler mornings mean steamier coffee}
{Working on some baby shower gifts}
{Last Saturday = Perfect Saturday}
And that, my dear blog readers who are still hanging around, is some of what I have been up to lately. Or at least, these are the things that I have been photographing! I suppose I should be more diligent in taking pictures and updating all my friends and family on what's going on around here. But we're doing well and just enjoying these beautiful autumn days! I know that winter will be here soon, and though I'm not ready for snow right this minute, I am looking forward to its arrival. I'm anticipating this winter and especially this Christmas - my first one that I'll get to spend with Ethan, since we were in different states last year. It's going to be a special time. :)
