Autumn on the Hudson

Sunday was a gorgeous day. Our daughter had a soccer game. It felt so good to be out in the sunshine on such a crisp autumn day, especially when your not sure how many more days like that you are going to be granted before even the birds are heading for the south. We decided to go to lunch and then head down to West Point to see the girl's soccer game so we could be outside enjoying the sunshine and Emma would get to see how the college girls play the game. The fields are literally right on the Hudson river. And some of the mom's (of the players) were hilarious. Army ended up losing to Colgate. But it was a good game and an enjoyable afternoon.

Here is a view of the Hudson just steps from the soccer field. So pretty, except for the chain link fence.

A Gorgeous Etsy Treasury ...

... curated by LaTouchables went to the Front Page of Etsy last night. So exciting to be on Etsy's home page and getting all that exposure. Thanks for the thrill Dawn! Please go check out LaTouchables' fabulous Etsy shop.

Her treasury is still active as of this post, but won't be for long. Here's the link if you want to get a better peek: The Folding Field

A treasury goes FrontPage on Etsy

Not sure where you are from, but last week's weather here in the North East was crazy for few days. We had snow to the point that the kids went out with their sleds and it was really unseasonably cold. On Sunday my daughter had an afternoon soccer game in the freezing cold rain ... and we got back home I was looking to cuddle up near the fire with my wool blanket and my laptop. It had been a stressful week for so many reasons and I just needed some unwinding & relaxing. What better way to spend some time, than window shop on Etsy and make some pretty treasuries. It had been awhile since I had time to make treasuries, but this list made in the Etsy Treasury West went front page this afternoon. Congrats to all the artists, the items were all gorgeous.
