The Beauty of Fall

I get that I may be sounding a bit redundant since I have already blogged about how much I LOVE fall but I don’t really care. I LOVE FALL. I always have but moving to a state that has huge trees every where you look has really amplified my love for the season. It is BEAUTIFUL here. Absolutely breathtaking. Any who, since I am loving this beautiful season of crisp air and colorful trees every where you look, we have been spending a lot of time outside soaking in the beauty. So this blog is basically going to be a TON of random pictures of the beauty that surrounds me.

I will start off with pictures from this past Sunday. After church the kids and I packed up a lunch and headed to the park for play time and a picnic. We went to a park we have never been to and the views were amazing.

On Tuesday while Owen was at school, Autumn was playing around in the front yard. As she was playing I began to span a few pictures of how beautifully gold the trees on our cul de sac are…

Speaking of beautiful, check out this beauty!!!

After naps on Tuesday we decided we needed to get outside because the weather was so nice. We decided to go take a nice long 3.5 mile walk along the Platte River as a family. We took the camera along and ended up getting some really nice pictures. Some of them are so gorgeous they almost look fake.

Owen had silly hat day at school this week. I didn’t realize it was “silly hat day” until the night before, so I scrounged around the house to find something to make and between Brandon and I we came up with a Cone Candy Corn Hat. Thank goodness for felt scrap laying around! Owen loved it!

Autumn and I had our own Silly Hat Fun at Michael’s while Owen was at school. Haha

The Bronco’s pulled out an AMAZING win against the San Diego Chargers on Monday night football which left me with 1 very happy happy husband :)

And this morning, the kids and I took a trip to the Denver Zoo since it was such a beautiful day…

It was a lovely morning with my two little cuties :)

And to end an amazing week with my family, I made a delicious fall meal for dinner last night and had my wonderful Mother-In-Law over to enjoy it with us (we also watched the season finale of Project Runway together too. Woo Hoo!).

Carmel Pecan Pork Chops & Apples, Parmesan Roasted Potato Halves and Steamed Green Beans. The Pork Chop & Potato Recipe were both Pinterest finds and they were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! I highly recommend them both fellow pinners.

I hope you are all enjoying all the beauty of Fall along with me. Have a great weekend!
