Marietta Marketplace

We are loving living in Marietta. There are fun things to do all the time around here, like the "Marietta Market Place" which happens annually. It is the perfect Saturday morning thing to do  during the Fall. 

There are lots of antiques, apple cider and pumpkins. It feels just like Autumn should.

There were lots of vendors selling crafts and fair trade things. And Peanut got herself this adorable doll that she named "Zomprincess".

The market place happens in front of the Armory in town. And Truett never goes by the Armory without getting his picture taken with the canon. It was a chilly but great day. Autumn is by far my favorite season, so this is my kind of event. What is your favorite season?

  

Our New Home- Peanut's Room

We really love our new home, and Peanut really loves her new room. It is bigger and brighter than her old room, but everything is still very girly and very pink.

She has own private play area under her bed. We use a quilt instead of a rug under her bed. I think that makes it way more cozy and comfy.

Because her bed is too high for a night stand, I made her a little pocket/bag out of duck tape. She keeps her flash light, some tissues and a couple little books in there. 

She is at the wonderful age of make believe, and its wonderful to watch her pretend to cook and have her serve us with  pretend food. She uses books as trays and calls us "Melady" and "Mysir". It is just too cute.

Her Favorite thing is the doll house she got from my mom years ago. I love how imaginative she is. 

She got a Poster book for Christmas and has since developed a new obsession. 

I'm not sure how well will this room grow with her, or how long will she enjoy the girly and princessy decor, but for now she seems to love it. Her bed and doll house are what make it hers and special to her.

What do you do to make your kids bedroom special?

A Post Marathon

So I have been in hiatus for a while it seems. Since our move, life has been wonderful. So wonderful in fact, that I was enjoying it too much to post about it, or to remember to pick up the camera at lot of times.

I am so very sorry to neglect you, my beautiful readers. And to make up for it, I will be doing a post marathon. Basically a catch up to everything that has happened since my last post.They may not be in the best of chronological order. But close to it.

You will see that a lot of what has happened, has taking place in our own town. No big trips anywhere for the most part, just us loving what we have right where we are.

Here are some pretty flowers, just because.

Hope you enjoy this little overdose of our lives.

The Autrumn of it All

 

 

This is my favorite time of the year! It's cold enough for people to start dressing (and smelling better), but is still not so cold that you have to keep inside. Plus there are pumpkins, and pumpkin spice flavor everything, candy corn, apple cider, changing colors and falling leaves.

Everything is so beautiful, so this afternoon, when we went for a family walk, I could not help but bring my camera, and once I saw the pictures I could not help but share them with you.

 

 

The streets are so quiet on a Sunday afternoons, the kids love walking around with their toys. So much beauty to see within walking distance of our home, we feel tully blessed.

 

 

 

 

What makes Autumn specila for you?

The fog

One of my favorite things about living by the river is the fog. It's like a gentle blanket covering everything. and when it's lifting from the water, it's like a thousand souls rising to heaven. The kid like to say that we are driving through the clouds- which I guess, is technically not wrong. 

Any one else enjoys a good fog? What is the best way to photograph it?
