My seesters and I have been just giddy all week with the cooler weather and the rain we got.
At least I'm not alone in my love of all things gloomy...
It's just so calming and cozy to be inside watching and listening to the rain.
Reading.
Baking.
Lazy afternoons with my babies.
Eating.
Napping.
There's nothin like hibernating!
I love it!
But we've been busy, too!
There wasn't one day last week that we were home.
And today I tackled their closets.
Getting everything ready for Sweater Weather (yay!)
Gwyneth's is pretty easy.
Just move everything up onto the next rod and pack away the outgrown.
Plus, there's only one of her.
The boys' are a mess.
I can NOT keep track of who's outgrown what.
It is such a headache to organize everything so that it doesn't get overlooked when we'll need it.
I found a whole bin of shoes Jude could've been wearing about 6 months ago (when he had none!) and now he can't fit into a single one of 'em.
I'm beginning to think a more efficient method would be to just throw everything into one big pile for summer and one for winter and dig through them when one of them needs something...
Definately worth mulling over.
But then I'd have to undo all the work I've spent the last 4 years accomplishing.
At any rate, at least their closets are now tidy and organized. And hopefully I won't be needing to rummage through each of them for 20 minutes every time we leave the house, trying to find that most important item anymore.
Our favorite way to laze those rainy days away...
playin in the boys' room.
Jude and Camden fighting over the bubble blower...
Mama finally got tired of them doin this to her and invested in one.
Touching it is off limits...
Camden still loves his barn Grandpa and Grandma got him for Christmas 3 years ago!
Ocassionally the boys allow Gwyn to invade "ManLand"
We've been working on our letters, numbers, colors and shapes every morning.
Camden now knows all his letters.
Jude and Gwyn are working really hard on colors and shapes.
They know most of them most of the time.
And I'm sure they'll have their letters memorized before I know it
'cause Camden is a great teacher!
I'm so proud of them!

The kids are just darling...LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, all the pictures. As always they are elegant and so classy. I am with you on the rainy days and the cooler weather....wishing to delay it so I can get something out of my garden, but am also looking forward to it....snuggling by the fire, football season, baking, etc. Something so peaceful about this time of year...I love the fall...brings me a feeling of content.
Try three girls in one closet! I have to reorganize once a week if I want to stay on top of it!
Beautiful Pictures!
I love that you have changed over to color photos now! :) I am partial to them, so I will always pick them over b&w...everytime you post new pictures, they seem to be better than the last - glad you enjoy it, we will love having these, and I think you inspired us all with your work...
Rain is cold and wet while hiking, puts out camp fires, and gives me frostbite on my bald head...plus it's boring inside!!! any questions??? nice pictures...
nice capture of everyday life, I love those type of photos... I'm totally for the "cooler" weather, you know, we do live in the NORTH Lance!
Is there something wrong with us that we like gloomy days? I just feel so "homey" and cheerful on rainy days.
By the way Lance, hiking is hard, campfires are best when it's cold, being bald sucks no matter what, and inside is where the food is!
I love these pictures. I wanna be a good picture taker person too!
