We spent some time exploring a local corn maze one night this week and the kids thought it was the best thing ever! They’d never been through one before, so it was an exciting first for them.
It was such a gorgeous night. We’re not used to this warm Fall weather and we’ve been enjoying it so much! I think one of the things we get asked the most, when people find out we’ve just moved from Canada to Arizona, is how we’re liking the heat. I’m not going to lie, the Summer was pretty intense, but after living on the island for a year and a half we’ve come to really crave the sunshine.
It’s amazing how quickly we’ve become accustomed to the climate here. In fact, during Fall break the temperatures dipped down to about 26 degrees C (78 F) and I had four little frozen kiddos shivering at the pool! These Canadians have gone soft I’m afraid! 😉
Here’s to celebrating Fall, family time and of course, photos. 🙂

These are gorgeous Rebecca. You always take such gorgeous photos & your children are stunners! I hear you about the heat. When we first went to So NV we made it through the first summer & thought- okay. Didn’t dawn on us just what it would do to us psychologically to live in that heat year after year. After year 6 we were very ready to find seasons again. I do hear you on the swimming though. I found that it had to be 100 degrees or more before it was truly hot enough to swim. People here are swimming in the lakes when it hits 70 & the water is at 40-50 degrees. I don’t know if I will ever do that 🙂 they are hearty here.

I love the look of your photos. That dreamy soft look you get. Have you ever had a tutorial on your post process. I would love to see that. Your kids are sure growing, and they are beautiful!

Kaeley @ My Mind's Lens says
These pictures of your family are BEAUTIFUL! I am so jealous that you are now living in Arizona. If I ever left the Pacific NW, it would be a tie-breaker between Colorado and Arizona.
Sylvia says
Wonderful photos of beautiful kids! I guess, the little things, the small moments aren’t so little after all… Since we celebrated Thanksgiving last weekend, I am sharing our little Thanksgiving afternoon picnic. Thank you for hosting the party.
Brandi says

Your oldest is growing up so lovely. 🙂 I have to say that I miss your seasonal banner– that was my FAVORITE blog banner– but your category buttons are gorgeous too!

Some beautiful pictures. I often wish I had taken the time to learn photography. Something that I really appreciate about good photography is that it allows us to realise that the simplest things in life are often the most beautiful and usually bring us the most pleasure.
