Ode to fall, tree sap and a sneak peek

Posted on 13:40 by Unknown
Second only to the Christmas season,
fall is my absolute favorite time of year.
I usually try to hold off on decorating
for Halloween until it's October,
but once it's time, I get so excited
about pulling out my silly little decorations.

Exhibit A
Exhibit B

 I also happen to think
that there aren't many little people
cuter than my niece.

And, what's better than fall decorations
AND the cutest two year old ever?!
Not much, let me tell you.



***
Apparently, the trees in our backyard
are also very excited about this time of year.
They have suddenly started pouring out tree sap
in large quantities.


I don't know what it is, but there's something so pretty
about golden sap. It reminds me of fresh honey,
which also holds a special place in my heart.


When the now-dried sap catches the light
in just the right way, it sparkles like amber.


***
And just as the trees in my backyard
are bursting forth with golden goodness,
I'm doing some bursting forth of my own. :)
And the preparations for the fruit of my labor,
so to speak, are in full swing.

Justin and I have started working on Colin's room,
and I promise I'll share pictures once it's finished.
But for now, here's a little sneak peek
into his way cool under-the-sea themed nursery.

 

The wall decals we chose are from Fathead.com.
We highly recommend them; their products are great!
I am really excited about how this little project
is shaping up.. I can't wait to show off the finished product!

More to come...
