today's faves


the new blog design.  what do you think?  i spent about three hours on it, and i must say it's ones of my favorites.


my mom's house plans.  my mom has been busy getting the house ready to accommodate four new bodies.  



signs of fall.  today is windy and cold - a great way to start the month of October in my opinion


taking pictures of leaves.  what can i say?  they're photogenic!

a full and restful upcoming weekend.  maybe a little shopping too?  i haven't shopped for clothes since the beginning of August.

stop motion.  should i make a video about how to do it?   a few of you asked.  i'm loving stop motion at the moment.  especially kiley's lovely video.  :)


baby toes.  life without this girl wouldn't be complete.  :)

october sponsors.  want to sponsor rise & fly for the month of october?  check out the rates here.  then email me if you are interested!

  15. congrats on your new blog layout. It does look nice - very clean and simple. If you wouldn't mind giving me your opinion on the blog layout at my newest project The Bartering Blogger - I'm a bit stuck on the design, it looks TOO minimal to me. Do you have any thoughts?
