embrace the camera {pull the handle...pull the handle}


Thank goodness for embrace the camera this week. I was having one of those days and these pictures just cheered me up! Sometimes I wonder if I was cut out for this job and other days, I just know I was. Gotta have bad days to appreciate the good days right?
So yesterday they chopped the corn field across the street. It's one of those days we look forward to all year long. Its also one of those days that we stop everything we are doing to sit and watch the tractors drive around and around the field. This year we decided to drive the tractor up to the top of the hill to get a better look and to enjoy the crisp fall air.

We munched on popcorn and apples while we used the pumpkins and gourds as our seats. We spent hours just watching them drive around and around the field. No fighting... just smiles, laughter and lots of snuggling to stay warm. I'm telling ya, days like this don't happen too often. So I enjoy them to the fullest when they do. Of course my favorite part of the day was watching the kiddo's jump up and down yelling "pull the handle...pull the handle" every time the trucks drove by. Whoever was driving those trucks sure was great to us and those honks definitely made our day a little more special!

  4. I loved this set of pictures. Fall is my favorite and these are all reasons why. It makes magical days when everything goes 'just right' and you remember those days forever.
