Summers End

We've been having a very difficult summer, starting with me, continuing most frightfully
with my honey the past month, we're still in recovery/cope mode right now, it's been hard...
Give me some time and I'll start to catch you up a little bit on what's been going on.

It's been a really hard summer, if I think about it I honestly want to cry!
I am feeling quite raw & emotional right now so today in efforts to cheer myself up, I post about some of the lovely days of summer, which yes, ha ha, is usually us out in the yard with the buns!

A Perfect Pouring Day

Some of my favorite days this Spring, Summer & Fall were the simplest of ones...

the coziest of ones...
the ones where we hung out together on the back deck in the pouring rain...

 



The ones where we watched the squirrel steal toilet paper from inside the house...

Where we did nothing but snuggle the rabbits...

Evenings with dessert and cocoa outside amongst the twinkle lights and stars.  Ahhhh.

Bittersweet Beauty

Things aren't over quite yet but we've actually had to turn our heat on already!
so I am naturally thinking back on the season as I do every year about this time.
Summer started off slowly with my injured knee early on in the season
& we resisted the yard for a tiny bit cause we just didn't want to be there without our Frenwyck...
but my oh my it's been such a good and wonderful Spring, summer and Fall...

 

I am looking forward to winter and diving into my studio time a lot more,

there's always way less distractions in the winter hibernation time!...

But I admit I am feeling slightly melancholy about wrapping another season up!

I don't know if Jaks will be with us next summer...I think that's making it all more bittersweet...

but we sure did enjoy our time outside this year and we took full advantage of it all

and that's what is most important at the end of it all isn't it!
