Autumn Scenes and Some News!



We were on a little autumn getaway! 


Wellies had to be purchased for puddle splashing and leaf kicking. The store was sold out of every color but yellow, but it was a good thing as they looked so cute in their matching boots. 

There was farm equipment to play on. 

Our little Graham was especially thrilled about that. 

Margaret was enthusiastic about taking the wheel too. 

Are they the happiest boys you've ever seen or what?

Graham let out a lot of enthusiastic, "Baaaaahs." 

The sheep thought that it was darn cute. 


I had to grab the camera when Margaret decided to get comfortable and catch up on some important reading! 

In other news, Country Living magazine is featuring our guest house renovation, which will come out in their February issue! The shoot is scheduled for October 31st so we're super busy getting things ready. More details on that to follow!

Also, my Canon Rebel has expired. It had a good life, served me well for over four years. I don't have time to shop for a new camera right now so my little point and shoot is all I have for the time being.  

Happy October days to you!

I was wondering where you had gone. Fun. I love these photos and no worries about the camera, all your photos are lovely even if you took them with a polaroid.
The kids are so big. I love the photo of Margaret with the mag, a girl after your own heart. Congrats on County Living! Yeah! I will be the first one on line to get it here in Bucks County, PA. Promise!
So fun! Excited to read all about the project. Aren't projects wonderful! (Husbands gasped all around the world as I wrote that.

Dear Andy,
So sorry about that! I meant to post while away but let me tell you that a rental house without baby gates and their favorite toys and books made a big difference. We were on our toes the whole time! The babies were in heaven with all the new exploring to do of course!

How exciting for you all to have a feature in Country Living! If your guest house is anything like your home, it is sure to be a beauty.
Just curious...what happened to your Rebel? Mine lasted 5 years then stopped working in auto mode so am wondering if you have the same problem.
The photo's of your bebes are adorable as always!

Teresa Maria said...

You've certainly been missed (by me, too, although I'm a rather new reader) but you deserved the break. Congrats on the feature!

BACKDOOR KITCHEN said...

The Littles are huge! I thought you were going to share some other "news" well, maybe after the rennovation and shoot you'll have more time. So happy to hear you've landed another article. Can't wait to get my copy in Jan! Love Country Living!

Vicci,
I got an Error 99 message. I tried to troubleshoot online and reset a bunch of things but it didn't help. I finally called B & H Photo (where I bought it) and they told me that it sounded permanent.

I hope by February, we will be living back in the United States and I can read your article in the actual magazine and not online.. which has been a godsend since I can't get anything English language here in the way of Magazines.
Congratulations .. and I love the autumn scenes. .
besos, from a Spring evening in Buenos Aires :)
