Welcome to Neumannia (A.K.A. the Neumanns)

Our story... good, bad, happy, sad, glorious, humbling, & hopefully a little hilarious... so that someday,
when it's printed (for the sake of reviving our memory & inspiring our grown children) they will have
seen Jesus in our day to day lives... because in the end, that's the secret to Real Life!

Fall, Fall...Where for art thou?

So California dreamin' is great for all seasons but one...Fall! You receive in the mail catalogs full of clothing that is meant for layering. Starbucks is pushing all things Pumpkin...and seriously who drinks an iced Pumpkin Spice Latte? Stores are beginning to display Christmas (which makes me despise retail because my life is currently functioning in a "day to day" mode) And here we sweat, I mean sit, in our homes pumping the AC so we can bake and enjoy a hot beverage:) We are blessed with the weather our state is known for, but it was due here last June! My uneducated theory is that the seasons have all shifted up...Winter is our Fall, Spring is our Winter, Summer is our Spring, & Fall, yes Fall is our current Summer! I long for crisp mornings, scarves, red & orange leaves, hot coffee, AND kitchens smelling of soups, breads, cobblers & anything else you find on Pinterest these days! So in longing for the Fall I see in every movie based in New York, I found some pictures that remind me of Autumn fun that we create here in Cali...Pumpkin Patches in tanks & shorts, sunsets camping in Carpinteria, family fun at Thanksgiving dinners & kids dressing up to pass out candy...Cat Woman & Gangsta Boyz...Happy Fall Y'all!!!
