Last year (in 2019) when we visited friends on our summer vacation, my friend and I kept joking about trying to get the "1,000 piece puzzle shot." I would say that some of these are DEFINITELY 1,000 piece puzzle shots! They're beautiful and you captured the colours so well.
OH MY GOSH!!! Frame all of these. Open your Etsy shop and start selling your photography. Simply stunning. The colors. The quiet water yielding mirror perfect reflections...hey, I like that sentence!! Just beautiful.
We did have a beautiful fall this year, didn't we? The lake photos are gorgeous. Loved seeing the leaves turning in your neck of the woods. Thanks for sharing.
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up. I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately. It's such a great stress reliever. 1. Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud. I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears. The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2 The boys being silly. 3. Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband. Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5. Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night. It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7. When my ...
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics. I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms! The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2 and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives. Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...
Fall weather finally arrived here in New England, we even had a frost warning Thursday night. It was quite a temperature jump from temps in the upper 70's and low 80's to temps in the mid 50's but at least I get to start wearing some of my sweaters and fall clothes. We got Evan's college applications all finished and this week he starts the rounds of college interviews. Wish him luck! I had no idea how much was involved on my end for getting all the paperwork done but we far surpassed all the admission deadlines since once I started I just wanted to get all those boxes checked off and cleared from my mental to- do list. We had another successful party last week with well over 100 links. I hope you found some time to visit several. I found so many delicious looking recipes, adorable crafts, and even some book/reading ideas. I just love that I never really know what I'll find! The link with the most views from last week's party: Day Datin' by...
This month for Share Our lives we're talking about our go to snacks. I honestly don't snack much anymore. I eat 3 main meals a day and rarely have an afternoon snack or any food after dinner. That said there are certain times of year or certain activities that bring on the snacking. In summer I love ice cream. I try to hard to not indulge too much and won't keep it in the house. Around us ice cream places are only open from late spring until Labor day... or maybe mid-Sept. depending on the owner's whims. Weekly hiking with our hiking group or my daily hikes with Evan rarely require any snacking/food but when Ben and I are on a trip or go on an all day summit hike I feel like I've more than earned some treats. We often pack trail mix but I do like one with lots of chocolate included! On our Glacier National Park trip my husband and I splurged on a box of Nutty Bars and by the end of the week we had polished off the whole box. I don...
It's the third Thursday of the month and time for another ageless style challenge. This month I picked styling mini, mini, or maxi skirts & dresses which is an admittedly odd choice for someone that hardly ever wears skirts or dresses... and usually not in fall at all. But I wanted to step outside of my comfort zone just a bit. I typically only wear above the knee (mini) or maxi skirts and dress. I honestly don't think I own anything midi length. For fall I tend to pair dresses with boots or booties and often a scarf and leggings too. All of the above photos were taken from my archives but I did put together a brand new look for today's challenge. I had this maxi jean skirt I bought years ago and still had the tags on it! I decided to pair that with one of my favorite cozy sweaters and a pair of boots. I added a long necklace and some chunky earrings to finish off the outfit. Now let's see what all my co-hosts came up with. Amy ~ Amy’s Creative Pursuit...
