Finally!

Finally I had my camera with me, when I came across deers on a front lawn again!!! I was so excited! There were all in all 6 deers. 3 babies, 3 adults. right next to a kind of busy street. I was able to get very close to take the picture, they didn't even care :o) I LOVE living in Colorado Springs :o) Lucky me gets to see deers about 3 times a month, even foxes now and then.

Tea time

With the now slowly getting cooler weather, it certainly is time to dedust those old mugs and pour ourselves a cup of good, hot tea....

October 1st

It's october finally!! The time of falling leaves, cooler days, more rain...comfort foods and so much more. Halloween is just around the corner, and then next month we will be digging into turkey, stuffing, green beans and pies and watch the first snow falling. 4 weeks later it's time to open presents and soon to celebrate the new year and then my birthday. Wow, exciting months are laying ahead, right?
