Days like these......

..... make me sooo anxious for Autumn! 
Every year I make a 
fall journal to record all the events and 
memories from 
September 1 through Thanksgiving.
This is last year's journal...one of my favorites!
I may have posted this last year when I
first put it together but I wanted to
re-post in anticipation of fall and I am getting
ready to put this year's together! You will
notice this one is still missing a few pictures...
I suck at printing pictures in a timely manner!

Kristen - I love it and I want to make one! Fall is my FAVORITE time of the year. Ok, will you email me and give me some tips? Like what size binder, etc?

Guess what - My hubs, Stephen and I are having a mini Thanksgiving celebration on Sunday. {meaning- we plan on cranking down the a.c. and cooking up some goodies!}

Thanks for sharing!

How Awesome is this!! I especially love the black and white clear divider! Loving it! Gosh if only I could get myself together like that. Ah, what a thought! Absolutely love it!

Thank for reading, really I appreciate it. I did actually pick up a book to study. I haven't done that in 2 months. But only got a chapter done, one can only take so much Wind & Lateral Forces design on a Friday night, right?? lol Thanks again!!!! :-) I will be back at it tomorrow. Yeapie!

What a clever book! I like how you saved the perfect little leaf.

Normally I find fall to be depressing, but not after seeing it through your eyes :D

Sigh, I totally love these. I bet someday you will combine these journals and write one bang up book about fall in New England... and I want an autographed copy!

Tell Kevin I keep waiting for a post on the Cardinals being in first place in their division... and a comment or two on Wainwright and Pujols...
