Rainy November Days

It has been the most rainy, dreary day you could imagine. It's as if it's been 6:00 p.m. all day and the sun is nonexistent. But I guess days like this are great for taking spooky pictures and drinking pumpkin spice tea. 

Back from my Vacation

I'm finally back from my vacation in Haliburton, Ontario (Canada)! I had a lovely time and I have so many pictures to share. I'll start with some of my favorites. We stayed in this cute cabin and had a whole private lake to ourselves. It's the perfect place for photographers!

Early Morning Adventures

This morning, almost 4 hours before I'm normally awaking on Saturdays, I went on a lovely fishing trip with my brother. 

The beautiful, smoky mist hovering above the lake.

The sound of birds singing morning songs in the trees. 

The turtles splashing about. 

The lily pads floating on the still water. 

It was perfect. 

My Window

Ever since we've moved from Colorado, I've had a problem with my window. It never seems to let enough light in (probably because it's always cloudy here), It's broken so I can never open it, and all I can see out of it is my neighbors house. Also, compared to the view from my old window how could any window compare?

But after three years of putting up with a window I hated, I began to discover all it's good qualities. I began to realize that I don't have to be negative but I could thank the Lord for my window.

Right in front of my window is the perfect place to take pictures.

 In the fall I can see beautiful leaf-less trees and a rosy pink sky in the evenings.

I also made the most beautiful discovery about my window a year ago. During just the right time of the year, the moon shines right through my window at around 1:00 a.m. If I open my blinds it lights up my whole room. I can lay on the floor right where the moon beams are and watch the stars. It's magical.
