Things to Do in the Fall

Poppa has gone to work on Kev-Inn's lot.  He took...........

........ Squeegie with him and Johnny (who usually sits on my bed as an ornamentj) wanted to go too!  It is rather chilly out today, so Johnny had to borrow a jacket from Taffy - and is now demanding his own jacket - we'll see.  Mommy,,,,,,,,,,

........... grabbed a cup of coffee the other day, and seemed to think that was a good thing to have in-hand while picking apples!  Hmmmm.  Of course.........

........... Daddy helped Munchie pick some for his bag, and.......

......... then Curtie had a turn.  I love Curtie's shoes!  I don't know if there were any apples left on the trees when they were finished, but............

.............. I'm pretty sure they had a good time!  Oh yes..........

............. this is Little Curtie on his very first day of Junior Kindergarten - doesn't he look handsome!?  I'm told he is loving school and goes happily most days.  Poppa & I went for a lovely drive recently.

The leaves are showing their fall colours - and we enjoyed them as we made our way to........

......... the dump, where Poppa disposed of plant detritus he harvested while cleaning up the yard for the year.  The dump is located in a rural location.........

....... in a valley and the view from there was really pretty.  I borrowed from a page in Uncle Shaun's photography guide,  I included the big truck in the edge - I liked the contrast between the scenery and the equipment.  On our way back to town.........

........ the fall displays were just as nice, but we drove a little faster since.........

......... this big truck was right on our tail and we weren't taking any chances - he was bigger than Monster (Poppa's truck).  As we got closer to town........

.......... we were still seeing lots of autumn colours - and also a lot more traffic!  The drive was nice and I was glad I had gone along!  Of course, knitting is also an enjoyable thing to occupy one's time when the weather turns chilly............

........... so I have started a new project - but more on that later.

Now We Are Six....

...........is a book written by A.A. Milne and is a story about Winnie the Pooh.  Today it is a very good story.......

.......... Yesterday, October 10th, our little Munchie turned six!  He can read stories from the books at school, he can draw.........

........ pictures..........see the bear in the window holding two hearts!  We received a package in the mail the other day - from Munchie - which included this little vignette along with.....

........... a portrait of Poppa & me (Poppa has his glasses on and a cap!)......... as well as........

........ a couple of others which included Squeegie, Taffy & Blacky (his bear).  As you can see, they are now on display in the Fridge Art Gallery!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Poppa's little man!  We wish you all the best and we will see you soon!  We love you Munchie!
