These Days...

• Are filled with all things pumpkin: homemade pumpkin muffins, soup, carving, festivals and much more.  
• Swinging from ropes in old barns!
• Tasting over 16 different types of apple juice and relishing in the flavors of each one. 
• We are enjoying the St. Jakob Botanical Gardens and all of the beauty the gardens offer this   time of year.
• We are hiking with new friends through beautiful villages.  I love that we live in a country that still has "villages."
• I am watching our daughter climb on everything and amazed at her intellect...stacking pillows to get on the couch, using a box as a step stool to get onto the coffee table, climbing into the chair in her room to read a book.
• I am reading and enjoying Bringing Up Bébé by Pamela Druckerman.
• I am listening to the mellow sounds of Colin Hay and remembering life in Pennsylvania on 205 Curtis Court slowly waking to his song, I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You.
• We are bracing ourselves for our first cold spell and looking forward to enjoying some potential snow...oh, so early in the season!
• We are sticking close to home, but looking forward to Herbstmesse and the white wheel!
• Today, we wish you a wonderful weekend!

 Muttenz Farmer's Market

 A little hike in the woods

 Enjoying all those sunflowers and bringing some home to enjoy as well!

 A little dream home...though my humble abode does not need to be so big!  Cut out four of the windows across, keep the round tower and the small side house (for our guests of course) and it shall be perfect!

The climber!
