Pre-Winter Cleaning

My sisters (Kaitlyn, Callie) were out at an archaeological dig with some of their fellow

club members and I was home alone with my parents, while my brother was at a sleepover.

So I had quite a bit of time on my hands...

In the morning we went to a garage sale and I bought a few neat items!

Such as:

These glass roses which the lady claimed she bought in England.

And three antique books in pretty^^^ good condition

Then after I had brought all those narly items

up to my room, I decided to CLEAN!

YES...CLEAN!

I know be impressed. ;)

I even printed and framed this picture of my siblings and I

when we were in London. Ah memories.

Then I put up my bulletin board in the center of my room

so it could be seen by ALL!

(pictures follow...)

All the while big Mo was keeping me company!

Kneading dough on my pillow. hehehe.

The final thing I need to do to figure out what classes I want to take next

year, all of which are listed in this large intimidating yellow paper.

L'Automne

Summer has gone away...and has been replaced with FALL!

yay!

You have no idea how much I've been longing for this after that heated Texas summers.

Now I can wear -cardigans

-sweaters

-pants

-LOOONG socks

-leg warmers

-closed toed shoes

-dresses with long sleeves

-knitted hats

oh thank goodness. :)

what's your favorite part of fall?

the changing of the leaves?

the clothes?
the chilly weather?

I couldn't choose so here's some photos I found representing some of the best parts...

HAPPY FALL you guys!

Winter's just around the corner...

Oh and here's a song that I really enjoyed on Glee,

I'd heard the original by Barbara Streisand and Judy Garland

but I think Kurt and Rachel did an amazing job as well.

Enjoy:
