Acorn Collecting by olivetreeann

Acorn Collecting

My visit with Leigh was only a little over 24 hours but we had so much fun. We went food shopping on Thursday after I picked her up from Mom. Then we went out to lunch and had ice cream for dessert. When we got home she noticed all the acorns on the ground and immediately wanted to collect some. So after the groceries were put away, we got a basket and found some really pretty ones!
Very cute

@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!
@karenann Thanks Karenann- I'm taking a second look at it and thinking I'd put them in a slightly different order now, but it definitely captures Leigh's excitement. She couldn't believe how many there were!
@dmariewms Thanks Marie, yep, I think I'd put them in a different order now, but all in all- it captures the fun!

@sarasdadandmom Thanks Terry. I've gotten so used to having so many all around, I don't give them a second thought. So it was fun to see how thrilled Leigh was that there were so many "beautiful" ones to choose from.
@httpgeffed Thanks Colleen!
@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole- she did!

@daveanajao Thank you Dave! I will tell her all my photography friends are wishing her a happy birthday. She was fascinated that you all lived in different country so we looked at a map of the world and I pointed some of them out.

@mrssmith Thanks Carla. It was a blessing to have her even for just a night. My spirits have been somewhat low lately, so this was definitely a morale booster.
