The snow and cold temperatures didn’t stop Olivia and me from climbing up Sugarloaf mountain yesterday!leigha and oliviafall snow treessnowmanThe fall colors were beautiful although I could do without the white stuff for a little while longer. view from sugarloafleigha and olivia sugarloafleigha at sugarloafleigha and olivia selfiesugarloaf viewolivia and leighaolivia and maggiBefore hiking we fueled up at Aubree’s! Like always it was delicious.

I’ll be back in a few days with a yummy recipe! ?

    Ahhh I can’t believe it is already snowing in the UP!! We had a few flakes when I was tailgating in Ann Arbor but nothing that stuck to the ground. Let’s hope nothing more comes out of it for a few more weeks (or months haha)

    Wow, what a difference between fall and summer and 2009 and 2015! You were so adorable in 2009!! It reminded me of looking at pictures of my sister (she’s a senior this year) in 2009; she looks SO different because you change so much around that age range. It’s crazy! Anyways, your photos are stunning, as per usual! Thanks for sharing :). If I ever get out to Michigan, I definitely want to check out Sugarloaf Mountain!
