Autumn is in the Air

One of my fav times of the year is autumn.  I love the colors most of all, but even the smell of autumn....the crispness in the air...and the chance to put a sweater on in the morning (even if I have to take it off by noon) is so fun to me!

Here's a photo of a tree on our property.....am I so blessed!!!!

This was taken a few years back, but it's one of the things I look forward to every year!  I'm guessing we are about 10 days out from seeing this again.

Another thing I am looking forward to in a couple weeks is this:

Mark your calendars as we share a weekend of hope, friendship and of course {scrappin} to celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness month. Cancer is such a horrible disease and it affects so many people, I hope one day we will be able to find a cure for it. We’d love for you to join us October 16th and 17th for our annual Scrap Pink Crop! We’ll have fun games, challenges, prizes and a {Scrap Pink} Raffle Basket– ALL proceeds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation!  Link is:  Scrap Attack Scrapbooking  Don't you love that name??! :)

Last but not least I leave you with a layout that I did this past week.  Yes, still working on those graduation photos! :)  I did this for an ongoing event over at Scrapdango (be sure to check them out!) and the hidden journaling reads:  

Once upon a time there was an engineering student who didn't know what he wanted to be when he grew up. Perhaps a preacher....or a farmer...or a lawyer...or even a doctor. But after all that time of thinking and pondering and trying new classes....and an extra year at college...Andrew decided that an engineer was the life for him after all. The end.

I used some of my FAVORITE Lucky Girl Kits for this too......check it out here.  I used a little of September & a little of the August kit.
