The beauty of nature

We have been some feeling of autumn recently around here. A light chill in the air, a shorter day with the arrival of mister night earlier then a few weeks ago, havest time slowly starting at the farms, and the swimming pool that is getting cooler (not to say colder...).

But before we let go of summer, we wanted to enjoy it a little more, and see it's splendor.



We went to a favorite spot of ours, a field of lavander that is not so far aways from our home.

It is always a pleasure to go and picnic over there amongst the bumblebees



and the delicate smell of lavander.

It was Pumpkin's first outing, and although we usually try to push this as far as possible not to carry him around while he is still tiny, this place is such a haven and a delight for the eyes, the nose and the soul that he actually seemed to enjoy it as much as the rest of us.













I can see myself years from now (when I have a lot more sleep into me...) just lounging into a place like that and just look enjoy the view.



in the meantime...I shall keep myself busy with my 3 loves.
