Thirteen and counting....

Joe and I had a fun night out celebrating our 13 year wedding anniversary. We headed to downtown Minneapolis to check out a Japanese Pub called Izakaya. Having never tried authentic Japanese food in my life, everything was new and exciting and very yummy!

                        

Idea house....

My mom and I visited the Bachman's idea house today for some holiday inspiration. With it's gorgeous use of natural materials and soft tones, it certainly was the dose of holiday spirit that I needed.

                 

 

                

Vanishing fall...

This time of year, I love to take a bog walk and see the gorgeous orange glow of the tamarak trees. It has become an annual tradition of mine to do this right around the first of November. The bog has a cool, moist feel and a spooky atmosphere. I love the mysterious spongy world that lies underfoot. I try to soak up every last drop of autumn color as it is so fleeting.

Happy November!

Halloween night....

Hope yours was full of spooky fun!

Happy Halloween....

Let the Halloween in you

come out and PLAY!!!

Halloween weekend...

We started the weekend with a wonderful Halloween event at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. So cool to have it on such a big area and the weather and colors couldn't have been more perfect. What a fun way to celebrate the season!
