Enjoy it while you can

If you haven't already, please enter my giveaway for this beautiful, handmade, sterling silver pendant, FAITH COURAGE LOVE, from the r house couture. And check out their site for other inspiring jewelry. the r house couture began as a way for Mrs. R - the r house - to make money to help pay legal fees for the contested adoption of their 2nd child. the r house is a blog about all-things-adoption.






Although I consider myself a cold-weather person (I hate to sweat, love jeans & a sweater, and my all-time favorite activity is curling up in a quilt with a good book and a cup of hot chocolate) I do recognize there are some really nice things about this time of year .....
I took these pictures at my in-laws house while on a work trip last week

    Winter girl here as well - but my Phoenix winter only, nothing with wind or scary snow. I suppose then I'm a fall girl. Summer is awful for us.
    Side note - giveaway sounds fun, shoot me an email jeanette(at)evertonterrace.com.

    I love autumn and winter. :) With this unbearable heat, there isn't much to like about summer anymore to me. (Not that I was ever crazy about the season to begin with.)

    I LOVE autumn as well, but I know that winter comes right after and it can be loooooong and cold! We're trying to soak up our outdoor time right now.
