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.
Happy April Fool's day to you! It's the first Monday of the month and time for Prime Purchases with Tanya. I was doing so well with my Amazon purchases right up until the end of the month when we decided to host Easter dinner at our house and I felt like I "needed" so much not having any Easter decorations at all. I bought a few new cardigans for this "in between" season and really love this cable knit one so much it's all I can do to keep myself from buying a second one! I also like this gray one.. . but I find myself wishing I had bought it a different color since it's not very "spring" feeling. Evan needed some new hiking shoes and we really wanted something waterproof this year but our local shoe stores didn't have anything that worked so we turned to Amazon and he found this pair that he really likes. I've been working on lots of scrapbook pages and I needed to buy some more of these adhesive refills and Cricut cutting
By far my favorite part of the week was my girl's trip to the Nashville/Franklin area of Tennessee! Last Friday I landed in Nashville, Tennessee around 3 pm after an easy morning commute and flight (made so easy because I had no car and my mom drove me to the airport dropping me off curbside). I was meeting up with some blogging friends in real life: Marilyn from Memphis Bridges, Jennifer from Overflowing with Thankfulness, and Tanya from The Other Side of the Road. By the time I had even picked up my bags I had gotten a text from Marilyn and Jennifer that they were parking the car. We met up in baggage claim and they had made the cutest welcome sigh for both me and Tanya. We had a few minutes before meeting up with Tanya and then headed to our rental house in Franklin. It was adorable and in a lovely little quiet area. Tanya brought a cute little gift bag of goodies for each of us; seriously these ladies are just the sweetest and I am so, so glad I decided to fly off
I decided to document last Friday for today's Friday Favorites post. I hardly ever document a day in the life anymore now that my boys are grown and mostly on their own. But I knew we had a pretty full day and thought it might be fun. These are some of my favorite posts to read and I think I did a pretty great job remembering to document and take pictures for the whole day! 5:00 wake up and I allow myself to blog, read emails, etc. until 5:30 5:30 get up, get dressed for the gym, put away my laundry from the night before, make the bed. 5:45 head downstairs to make Alec's lunch (1/2 way though he came to the balcony to tell me he wasn't going to school since he wasn't feeling well-- he's 18 and allowed to make this call himself). I decided to make a salad, some chicken salad, hard boil some eggs, and cut up all the fruit since we had just done groceries after dinner last night and none of that had been done yet. I emptied, reloaded, and restarted the dishwasher.
