Our garden sits at the back of our property through the woods. I was surprised how many leaves were already down. I love this shot of Josie's sweater.
We were pleased to see that Mr. Woodchuck, and the deer/rabbit families have left our gourds alone. However, I'm still mourning the loss of our pumpkins...sigh.
After picking a few sunflowers, Josie and I left our garden and wandered around the yard selecting a few special flowers for a fall arrangement.
Later in the afternoon, I convinced Emma to come outside for a fall photo-shoot. We had spent some time earlier in the day, playing with "temporary" hair extensions and she was more than happy to model them for me.
My two beautiful girls.3 years later, I still pinch myself when I see them together.
Who would have guessed that all those years of infertility
and adoption stress
would be such a lovely blessing in disguise.
XOXO

They are so beautiful. The sweaters are precious, too.
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't believe how long Josie's hair is (I would have commented on Emma's long tresses, but I read every word of your post first!). They are growing up so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteAny chance we can get together sometime?
Gorgeous. I got stuck looking at the flowers and then moved on to the photos...gorgeous...I see you have something from Miss E. so happy for you. Can't believe how grown up the girls look. Well worth the day of photos...smiles...Renee

ReplyDeleteImmagini molto belle, sei riuscita a cogliere l'anima di questa stagione di mezzo, tra la fine dell'estate e l'inizio dell'autunno, molto suggestivo il bosco e splendide le ragazze. Emma ha una luce speciale negli occhi: รจ forse innamorata?
Your girls look like they are the best-est friends. Glad you had some gourds left!
