Odds and ends of Fall

Thanksgiving day...

It's been such a long time since last post, this will have to be a collection of what has happened since then. We've had good times, so much that we haven't had time to post...the holidays are going, going, gone...til next time.

Our fascinating new washing machine and Kurtis' first "fridge-work." This is his cut and paste picture of a boat!

Aren't they pretty....the leaves I mean...

Hiking and camping

We went camping this weekend (in the backyard) :-) and hiked up a local trail to the top of a fire tower. It was great fun to spend 2 whole days outdoors!

Update on garden things

Well, here is the latest pics of our garden things. We have enjoyed tomatoes and cucumbers and beans mostly with a miniature pepper now and then. The zucchini and yellow squash are all done by now. The flowers just keep popping even though we've had a few light frosts already. Can't wait for fall though. What beautiful weather we have had with cool nights and sunny days!

Focus on profiles

How can we complain...

...when God gives us such wonderful things to be thankful for...

and, yes, we are STILL picking blueberries, 25 cups and going strong...yum, yum, yum

Real big balloons!

This weekend was fun for all. We were front row for some of the biggest balloons I have seen before.
