Autumn!

I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house. So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air. Nathaniel Hawthorne

These last few mornings I've been throwing the windows open first thing to let in the crisp air, to let the house breathe! Lately Boo has taken to running out into the backyard or down the drive to get the paper right when he gets up, barefoot and in his pajamas, only to come skipping back in with chill bumps! I do believe the boys and I are nearly living outdoors right now -- the days are so fair! Just a few weeks ago I thought the summer heat would never subside and now here we are...autumn has arrived!

Enjoy a balmy, sunshiny, breezy first weekend of autumn.
We intend too!
