From Instagram: It feels like fall this morning – chilly and crisp. I love it!#wildwonderfulwestvirginia
I am working hard to be a person who lives in the present rather than dreaming of the next thing (which isn’t always easy for me because I’m naturally a planner and a dreamer!), but the crisp air this morning means I can finally get excited about fall and all it holds: pumpkins, crisp air, changing leaves, and a new baby!
In the past, fall has been our busy season, but after the craziness of this summer, we’re looking forward to a more relaxed schedule to enjoy some of our favorite fall activities (like apple picking, a trip to the farmer’s market, hiking in the fall foliage…).
What I’m reading: Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum and The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo (I’m going to finish it this time!)
