P U M P K I N


I absolutely love Autumn! I must admit this one may top them all! I have my very own baby and a new Nephew! My wonderful, darling, amazing sister had a baby on Oct. 24th. I can heart fully say she deserves an award, a medal, trophy, front page of the paper....something along those lines. She gave birth peacefully at home in a birth pool to a 12 lbs 13 oz baby! Amazing right? Superstar status. Awesome mom for life award. I am so proud of her! I get to see them all this weekend! Elijah and I will take the plane to Calgary on Sunday and I cannot wait. From the photos alone I can tell he is a darling "little" pumpkin!


Here are some pictures from our Autumn adventure today. Just a short bus ride from our house is a community nothing short of magical. People riding horses down the tree lined roads, pristine homes with stables, farms, and to top it all off the glorious colors of fall.



 

I love how Elijah slept through our entire adventure...what a guy!



Thank you to Decey for sending this pumpkin suit in the mail...what a perfect surprise!



Okay and to top off a perfect pumpkin day...make pumpkin muffins...and eat the whole lot...okay so I was going to bring them to our sign language class tomorrow...how can one resist. I loved baking muffins again, it made me feel like I was going to wake up at 5:00am and teach a yoga intensive, oh muffins.


Here is a link to the recipe: ttp://www.catcancook.com/easy-pumpkin-muffin-recipe/
I added dates and cut up candied ginger instead of raisins. They were amazing! I always use her muffin recipes and they turn out simply marvelous.

  1. Oh how I miss yoga with you Juli!...and muffins of course! Too bad we didn't have little Elijah and Scarlett together for Halloween. She was an owl too! His costume turned out amazing!
