NOTE TO SELF: Buy more Candy Corn as i ate the entire stupid bag i can't find it.

It's my favorite time of year....and i'm thrilled that it's here. Our trees are starting to turn from their vivid green to beautiful reds and yellows. It's cooler in the mornings and evenings now which makes it perfect for a fire outside.

The fire thing would have been perfect had someone i not forgotten to buy the marshmallows. I tried to "substitute" those cute little mini-marshmallows, but the husband didn't appreciate my attempt.

Emma and i are still working on our butterfly garden...i think that one more trips to Bates should do it. I have 4 butterfly bushes, a few sedum, a bee balm plant and a few other plants. It's coming together rather nicely; i can't wait till everything fills in and the butterflies find it next year! It's been really a lot of fun planning out where to put what. I seem to have forgotten how much i love planting and playing in the dirt...

Off to put a certain toddler to bed...
