Beautiful Fall Day

It was a beautiful fall day today - slight chill in the air and a nice breeze to rustle the leaves. Lucky has been driving us crazy with his desire to go outside so today I took him out on the leash. He was very good while outside but not happy to come inside. Hopefully that will keep him happy for a few days!
I got most of my chores done today so tomorrow is playday for me. Maybe a trip to memory lane and Michaels for some not needed scrapbooking supplies. I have been scrapping quite a bit lately and have some creative ideas for Christmas cards. With the cooler weather and the boys watching baseball all the time, I spend evenings in my scrapbook room.

The front of the house looks nice with the pumpkin and mums. We need more pumpkins to complete the look. There is a big streak of bird poop on the door, but I creatively took the picture so that the post blocked it out. Have to get out there and clean it off.

I love this time of year - can you tell? Even though the days are getting shorter and it's dark so early I don't mind too much. Tonight when I was walking Kitty I could smell the woodsmoke coming from our chimney. I love that smell. It is definitely a fall smell.This last picture is of the hot air balloon that flew right over our roof top this morning. You have to look very closely between the trees to see it. I was outside with Kitty when it came over top of the house and Kitty freaked out. I was able to talk to the people who were laughing at how Kitty was running in circles and basically a basket case. I could see what the people were wearing - that's how close they were. I took Kitty in and brought Greg out to see it. By the time I got my camera and camera card it was not as visible.
