And no - I'm not talking about Disney dreams. Although we're in preliminary talks for our first Disney excursion with the littles. More on that to come, I'm sure.
Saturday was great. We had a lazy, pajama day at home. I took a nap while Hannah slept mid-day, and then I got cleaned up, and Jack and I went to the store to get a fall tablecloth and napkins for an upcoming fall birthday celebration.
On our way home, the light near the entrance to our community turned red, so I decided to "save time" and take a right into our neighborhood, rather than going the long way around.
In the front of our neighborhood, we have a beautiful street lined by trees on both sides, and the lighting and the colors of the leaves felt like it couldn't have been more perfect than on Saturday afternoon. Jack and I rushed home to grab my camera and Hannah Bear and Daddy, so we could head back out to that perfect spot.
I've dreamed of taking pictures at this spot since we moved to this neighborhood - we've been here for four years. It's gorgeous. Winter, spring, summer, fall - just beautiful. Lucky for me, I was able to get everyone ready quickly, and Brad agreed to come along to help with traffic control. It's not a busy road, by any means, but people coming and going to the clubhouse need the road, and we wanted to be safe.
I'm so glad we went. I didn't get the best pictures - but the kids had fun running around, posing for Mama, and chasing the local geese:) We had to share this beautiful spot with a couple of girls posing for Homecoming pictures (their moms have good backdrop taste), and a man who was walking the road for exercise. I didn't care - it's that pretty.
See for yourself...
So, as I was saying - this was a dream come true.
Now I'm only hoping that the leaves will remain on these trees long enough for our family photo shoot coming up next week!
