October 12, 2011

Had the extreme fortune of spending 8 days in France at the end of September. Spent 6 nights in idyllic Honfleur, then a whirlwind 2 nights in Paris before heading back west. Missed Denver and Finn like crazy.

Met awesome people, spent time with a friend I hadn't seen in way too long, and ate crazy-good food, including lots of cheese, bread, and macarons ;-)

More pics can be found in my Flickr album.

Lawrence Farms Orchards

Went to Lawrence Farms Orchards on Finnian's second birthday. Picked some apples (of course!) and also grabbed a pumpkin to use for soup. Finnian had a terrific time visiting all of the animals and helping with the fruit and vegetable collection.

Getting my feet wet with the video capability on the 5D Mark II. Focusing will take some practice...but happy with this first real attempt! :)

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge: A Touch of Sun

We are welcoming fall with open arms here in the Dill household, but I will really miss these sun-drenched, warm evening moments outdoors. If they must traded for sweatshirts, pumpkin soup, apple picking, and cuddling under my mom's quilt at night, then so be it!

Check out lovely, sun-themed photos this week at I Heart Faces.

Gameday at West Point

Army lost-- barely-- but it was still a great day. Football Saturdays at West Point are truly unique. Cadets jumping from a helicopter at 10,000 feet, canons blasting when Army scores, and a picturesque setting on the banks of the Hudson. I *heart* fall at West Point :)

Backpack

Made a toddler-sized backpack for my little man while Hurricane (err… Tropical Storm) Irene made its way through the Hudson Valley. Got the cute pattern from Made by Rae and the fabric from Superbuzzy. My man, surprisingly, had to be cajoled into wearing the end product, as he is reluctant to wear it for some reason. I am sure that he’ll come around.

Collecting more projects to work on this winter on Pinterest :)
