blush lace among plum trees

Living on a farm is a weird and wonderful thing.  Nearly everyone you meet dreams of living on a farm, although very few realize the amount of work that goes into running one.  Plants and animals don't care about weekends or holidays, and often the amount of work that needs done in a day is much greater than eight hours worth.  This is especially true during harvest time.  Our family has been running hard for the last six weeks already picking apples, plums, pears, pumpkins, potatoes, squash, gourds, and more, and we're all eagerly awaiting November 1st (aka: the next day our store is closed)!

outfit post: elephant tights


So Fall has definitely arrived on the West Coast!  Which usually means rain, rain, and more rain!
But lately the weather has been pretty good, we almost made it through this photo shoot without any rain! (Almost being the key word here, you may notice the drops on my dress!)



Now I love wearing dresses!  Summer, Fall, Winter, or Spring - dresses are always a great choice (Yay for not having to wear pants!)
However, now that it is getting a bit cooler out, I have to my leggies warm.  So it is officially time to break out the funky tights!  I found this awesome pair at Urban Outfitters, and I had to have them.  They are super fun, and easy to pair with dresses or long shirts.

And big ups to Kelsey for doing this beautiful crown braid on me!  She is so talented - she did it in like 5 minutes, and it looked gorgeous.  I'm pretty sure I would have struggled with it for about 10 minutes, and then given up (since I have no hair skills, patience, or dexterity).
