another little thing

i found this pretty little guy outside when i went to check the mail this afternoon.







please forgive the state of my nailpolish - as you might have gathered by now, i work with my hands all day ;). also, blogger is being dumb, and that's why this picture is sideways for some reason (anyone else having this issue with some pictures?).

"oh hai!" :).

that's all!

little things

brandon and i found this little guy hanging out on our patio a few nights ago. look how tiny he is!

he was a sweet little guy, too. didn't even pee on me! :p

and i spotted this creepy baby scorpion on our house. it's getting cold outside... what's he doing out in the open?!

one of our sage bushes in the front yard. the recent rains knocked the flowers right off the bush.

while cleaning up our yard yesterday to prepare for our realtor to come over (our house is now on the market!), i spotted this little cutie. i am a sucker for mushrooms - i think they're so adorable! i hate the way they taste, though :p. i couldn't help but notice that if it bears a stricking resemblance to a cherry blossom! if only it had one less "petal" ;).

oh, would you please wish me luck on selling our house and getting our new one? i'm extremely nervous about it (i'm a total worry-wart!). we found a house we want near austin, where i grew up, so i hope we're able to snag it in the same timeframe as we sell our current house! keeping my fingers crossed!
