Oh my goodness, when I first saw these pictures I was basically crying happy tears! I don’t know why it hit me so hard but I am just in love with them. I love seeing a picture of our entire family – all SIX of us {WHAT?!!! – WHEN did that happen?!}. I cannot wait …
Lydia’s 4th Month

Fall
My favorite season is HERE! I love fall. It is so refreshing and beautiful. I will admit, other then the temperatures, I am struggling to see the fall beauty in our little part of the world. Fall here looks just about how it does in spring and summer. It’s a shame sagebrush doesn’t change color …
