Try to remember the kind of September

 Where did the month go? To me, this is the most lovely month of the year, yet it flies by in the blink of an eye. How has your September been? Filled with apples and cinnamon, the precious reds, yellows and oranges of foliage and cool evenings tucked under blankets?

This month has been insanely busy, though wonderful, nonetheless. We've been living in a home that's being renovated, so it's a bit chaotic at times, but only a few more weeks left... I promise to post photos once our house is put back together. Right now it looks like it's been hit by a tornado.



 We spent some time at the Cape early this month, our babymoon, as we called it, and it was the most relaxing vacation we've ever had. We read, slept, grilled, had fires on the beach and enjoyed the end of summer/ 'welcome autumn' weather.

We've had some very special visitors this month, despite the house being in shambles, including one of my very dear friends, Amber, and her brood. We went to a local farm, where her babes got to admire the farm animals and, along with the joy of seeing the farm through the eyes of the happy little sweet one, we also treated ourselves to some homemade cider donuts. They were completely and deliciously fall.

adorable family:)

This past weekend I turned 30. Matt brought home some peanut butter-chocolate ice-cream cake (he knows me too well) and we spent a relaxing time with our families in Connecticut. A much mellower version of the big three-oh than I've always imagined, but just perfect.

I've been growing daily, or rather I should say that the little guy has been growing daily. We've taken to calling him Benji. And I have to say, I think this Benji's a dancer.

I hope that you are all enjoying every moment of this beautiful month and I look forward to sharing the sweetness of the fall here in blogland with you.
