last week i took talby to the nursery while annie was at school.
it was a last minute thing.
i didn’t have my camera.
i seriously felt sick about it.
and you can see why.
4 days later i took annie back when talby was at school.

it was even better.
on talby’s day the pumpkins were still in boxes from the truck.
on annie’s day they were so displayed so beautifully.
it was just so pretty.
with both girls we spent over an hour each time
looking…
touching…
marveling at god’s creations.

there were so many mums just waiting to pop!
all the mounds of flowers everywhere around us.
in every fall color.
the pumpkins were in all shapes and sizes.
i wanted this big one but couldn’t justify the cost.

annie picked out this little one first thing.
she carried it the whole time.
she loved to feel each one especially the big bumpy ones.
we counted and stacked and rolled and compared pumpkins.
they had gray/blue, some were almost brown, almost red,
almost yellow and the white.
one variety is called the cinderella…how cute is that?
and then another is called hubba hubba.
it is so funny to hear annie say hubba hubba.
don’t you love the twisty twirly dried up vine?

isn’t it mysterious how plants grow?
fascinating to me.
we bought 2 purple mums…i hope.
we’ll see when they open.

if i had an extra $750…
i might buy this fountain.
(and then craig would have a stroke and i’d have to return it.)
it was pretty neat…complete with moss.
i bet that part is free.
and this statue…look like any one to you?

it was such a wonderful way to spend a morning.
twice.
we came home with these baby pumpkins…
as much as her dress could hold.
