First Fall

Our house has 7 trees. Not only do we have 7 trees but we have a neighbor who has 3 trees that line against our fence. Do you know what that means when fall hits? Endless raking. I have never spent so much of my time raking - raking and getting nowhere.


our front yard the day after we raked it... depressing

this picture does not even begin to show you all the leaves in the backyard


However, it did look pretty at one point....



so glad the flowers waited until October to bloom



our apple tree actually had good apples! i swear that never happens

At least the dogs enjoyed all the leaves. I think Nora played and destroyed every one of our 
piles at least once.


I could post 100 pictures of my pups but I will spare you 

It was also our first Halloween in our house. I was pretty excited to have a house... a whole house to decorate for a holiday. Well, turns out a whole house takes a lot more to decorate than an apartment. Not to mention the decorations we had looked a lot smaller in a house. Here are the decorations I decided were okay to share...




lots of moving boxes + pinterest = our halloween decor

    1. We actually made them out of all our moving boxes. We just cut them out, spray painted them black and then I used tissue paper for the eyes. They were super easy!
