i love this time of year. oranges are in abundance and trees dot the neighborhood. i want one. really bad. our neighbor behind us has a tree packed with the sweet citrus goodness. and every once in a while, one or two will hang over the wall and tempt me to go pick it. i ask jeff if it is legal and he usually just laughs without answering. which probably means i should go over and ask them for permission. but i haven't. so there it sits. always tempting.
i'm even so smitten with the little round lovelies that i went outside and took this photo of them yesterday after being inspired by a new favorite. mmmm…. (p.s. no oranges were stolen in the staging of this photo :))
what makes this time of year even better is the memory of ten years ago today. sometimes i think i even like today better than our anniversary. the day we met changed everything.
smitten? indeed.

Hmm, while you photograph delectible citrus I photograph little puffed up chickadees visiting the feeder in the frozen backyard.
Has it really been ten years?!
Your photos make me happy, and this one is definitely no exception!! And I can’t believe I had never read your “love story” before. It’s perfect! ps…thank you for the info on the calendars and for your sweet compliment too. It means even more to me coming from you – someone I can always count on to inspire me. You’re amazing!!
