week in review + it’s fall!

“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.” ~George Eliot

We ushered in fall a bit early with our first corn maze last weekend which, despite the sun making it a bit toasty, was a fun adventure. When we first set out, we had a map but decided to just explore and find our way. After a few wrong turns and dead ends, however, we consulted the map and discovered if we were to continue on our current trajectory, we would never make it out. Luckily my fiance is good with maps and spatial reasoning — and I trust him completely — so we exited shortly after.

Not that I’m one to make lessons out of everything, but our corn maze adventure was just another testament to the strong partnership that is the foundation of our relationship. We each have unique strengths that we bring and, with each passing day, I am more and more grateful for my fiance and the life we are building together. Can’t wait to see what other fun adventures my favorite season brings! Happy fall, y’all!
