Startled, Pippin asks, "What about second breakfast?" Strider says nothing and walks on. Soon though he tosses an apple from behind a bush, which Merry catches. A second tossed apple smacks Pippin in the forehead.
J.R.R Tolkien (Lord of the Rings – Fellowship of the Ring)


These pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago when we went apple picking. 
Such a fun family tradition during the autumn months.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and survived Black Friday/ Cyber Monday.
I bought a couple of books (duh) and ordered prints made by the very talented Chris from HandLetteringCo.

Also, only ten (seven if you live in Belgium) more sleeps until ‘The Hobbit – The Desolation of Smaug’ comes out in theaters. Can’t wait!

Love,
Sara

  8. It's officially winter here in Michigan and I am missing autumn like crazy. This photos are absolutely beautiful and made me smile. I'm glad somewhere people are still getting to enjoy all those beautiful fall colors!

  10. Ah, makes me want to gather up fresh apples and bake a pie. Love the reference to the second breakfast, something I enjoy partaking in sometimes, too.

Merci beaucoup!

Come a little bit closer, hear what I have to say. Just like children sleepin', we could dream this night away.
