  1. You autumn leaf photos are beautifull. Down here you can feel that autumn is now well on its way and that winter is knocking on the door. We have our first proper cold weekend of the year.

    Conner reminds me of my Eden, always busy...I so understand.

  7. Your foliage photos are so real and endearing that I feel like autumn is right around the corner. But we have to go through summer, first, and I'm really looking forward to that. Super shots!

  9. When in Spring, I say, I looooove Spring!
    Autumn comes around, and I fall in love again.
    Every year the same! And I haven't mentioned summer yet. ;-)

    How come that dogs always find a way to sneak onto the most precious blankets in the house?
    Ours, as small as he is - miniature long-haired dachshund - has learned to pull things off a chair or a bed. Upon being discovered, his body languages speaks of knowing that he's not supposed to, but "oh, it is so soft and cozy!".
