LAAAAAADIES and Gennnnnntlem,
Fall is arriving at 4:21 am tomorrow
morning!
I don't think the weather Gods around
these parts got the memo though,
because we are having another warm
spell here in the Midwest. It was cool
over the past weekend but .....here
we are Fall and mid the 80's. What
can I say?
Time for Mums. I picked up
two pots over the weekend.
Red ones.
Time for the annual trip to
pick those pumpkins.
Time for:
Apple Pick'n
Bonfires
Hayrides
Country drives to see the
leaves changing
Apple cider and doughnuts
Haunted Houses for those
who dare!
Seaonal and holiday decor
changes
Trying new "comfort food"
recipes or using old faves
Getting out the cardigans
and hoodies
FOOTBALL
What do you do to get ready
for FALL??

Hello Everyone~
Since Fall is on our backdoor, I
thought I would do a recap of our
Summer.
We did enjoy our fun adventures
for sure! First up was our trip to
Oklahoma for fun with the family.
This was from the trip to the Cowboy
Museum.
Next we were off to Illinois.
Our friend's son graduated from
high school and is attending the
University of Minnesota studying
Engineering.
Christopher's Aunt made these. It is
a Periodic Table. Nifty idea don't you
think?
In July, Mr. Ken took some time off
for vacation and we took some day
trips... We enjoyed our visit to
the library.
Another day we went to a local brewery.
Picked up our tour tickets and off we
went.
Some "young" man had a birthday!!!
Which was celebrated many times over.
Took another road trip, to see a friend
and celebrated the big day again.
This lovely A-frame home was designed
by our friend and she lives here, so we
were very excited to see it and her too.
This trip took us to southwest Missouri,
almost to the Arkansas border.
I completed my 50 book challenge!!!!!
One more road trip! We found ourselves
in Brookfield, Missouri. They have a Hot
Air Balloon Fest every year.
We went with my brother-in-law and his
girlfriend but...
Unbeknownst to us and Julie he planned
to ask her a very important question! Can
you guess what it was????
To say she was surprised was ans under-
statement! Thankfully, Gregg clued us in
before. I was glad I had the camera with
me!!!
It fit!!
She said YES!!!!
The balloons were cool too!
Congratulations to my brother-in-law
and soon to be sister-in-law!!!!
Can't wait to have Julie as an official
member of the family.
Summer went fast and Fall promises to
be full of more fun and ANOTHER road
trip!
Come back often, I am going to try to
post more. So much going on, that it
gets hard to post. But I will try harder.
