fall 07

fall 07: us at a bonfire put on by my scrapping group. full of nature, bonfire, s'mores, and homemade chili! It was cancelled this year because everyone's kids are sick....so I'm hoping for a big event next spring!!!

fall 08

fall 2008: short sleeves and sunglasses at the zoo. MIL and FIL were in town. This week is similar: frost in the morning yesterday....and 75 this afternoon! i heart this about Ohio!

us.

just us, from earlier this year. i'm totally rocking the blue eyeshadow. but, unless you've been blinded by that (fair, enough) you already see that. hehe.

weekly plan

we do menu planning. we do grocery shopping. we do coupon clipping. and, these all happen on sundays.

here we are, returning from grocery shopping on a sunny fall day!

sports

this fall, i've become an avid sports fan. maybe it's because the vikes and twins are / were winning. maybe its because they've both put on some great, nailbiting, games the last couple weeks. whatever it is, it's weird that i watch games and look forward to the next win!

here we are out to a sports bar watching like 20 tvs featuring 5 games!

home.

[i found this minnesota map paper at a local scrapbook store....and just had to do an impromptu layout with a snapshot of us in DC at the WWII memorial.]
