The perfect day for a stroll...

I was quite overwhelmed last Sunday.  Finals were due for my psych class on Monday, ALLLL of the clothing and baby items I hoped to drop of this week for the children's consignment sale still needed to be ironed, hung, labled, and entered on the computer (I didn't get that done, by the way), both kids + my teenage brother were running around the house like crazy people, the house needed cleaned, the clothes needed washed, you see where I'm going here...

As I stood looking out the front windows I noticed the trees swaying in the wind, and the leaves drifting to the ground... and I realized what a beautiful day we were missing out on.  It was 11:30, and we were all still in pajamas, what was I thinking?  So we quickly changed clothes and the four of us, Gator, Boo, the little bro, and I, headed out the door for a stroll.  We are so blessed to have property that backs up to this....






And that looks out onto a beautiful field where we wondered around and took these....



And when we finally made it back home we were loving being outside so much that we played in the yard for a while....





And all I can say is we really needed that!  We're beginning to just barely get a taste of the Fall weather here in Florida.  It's still hot, but it's not HOT, and the breeze is always a welcome change.  By the afternoon I just couldn't help myself, and I dug a couple containers out and started to put out the fall decor. 

My favorite season is right around the corner!
