fall fairy friends | let her be little

It has officially been fall since September 23, but here in Oklahoma our weather does not always follow a calendar! But almost overnight it finally happened...cooler temps, an explosion of color, & a visit from the fall fairies. Fall fairies??? It's true. I didn't know about them either until Alivia introduced them to me over the weekend!

This weekend we decided to go with Daddy to Peggs. He was going on somewhat "business" and we are always along for making business an adventure! I grabbed my camera in hopes of maybe capturing some images since I seem to always use my phone. I'm totally for "the best camera is the one you have with you," but I have been yearning to use my big camera more.  While Daddy was discussing business, we decided to wonder around & just take in all the gorgeous fall Oklahoma was giving us.

On our walk Alivia picked up a pinecone. I said "Oh wow is that a pinecone?" She told me without skipping a beat that "fairies lived in them! " I did not know this is where fairies lived, but I quickly learned. She stopped & said "You hear that? It goes jingle-ling-aling! Jingle-ling-aling! Those are the fairies in there!" I couldn't help but snap away, soak in this beautiful little moment, & learn about the fairies that must be responsible for bringing us this gorgeous fall.

Now back to the realities of motherhood...picking up never-ending messes, begging my child to listen, & making sure we are all staying on track! Wonder if there are fairies that do all of that?! Happy Fall Y'all!!
