Fall days

Have I already mentioned how beautiful Fall is here in Eugene? The trees really take their time turning red, yellow and orange, and the weather has very slowly become cooler, easing us into the darker days of Winter. It hasn't been very rainy yet either, although I think this week is going to be the begining of some cold, wet weather. But that just means more time inside making forts and pretend baking with my little cute friend, and that's alright with me!

Here's a picture of the bush outside our window.



And the view from my back porch:

With all this nice weather and a child who loves walking, we've spent a lot of time outside playing with leaves and exploring.

Lucy is not content to stay in our backyard for long, she wants to get out and see the big world.




So many new textures to learn about like leaves and pinecones, it's such an adventure!



I think she found a ladybug on the wall. (Also known as a "cat-cat").

Happy Fall everyone!
