It's only the middle of October

View of backyard and park, Phantom Canyon trees turning and butterfly on flowers.

I had a great weekend. The RS Super Saturday aka the RS Meeting was so much fun. The weather however, was not. Started the day with my SH trying out some new ice skating moves in the driveway. Just happy he did not permanent damage. We had a major ice storm of super fine frozen mist. The car doors where frozen shut on the Mitzi (my little red car) scrapping the window was like shaving off a coat of glass. It was interesting how fast it all came down and turned everything into frozen ice crystals and black ice . The temperature had just been in the 70's and then down to freezing.

Looks like fall is on it way out

Today is a very different day from yesterday. I actually saw a few snow sprinkles and the trees are already starting to look much thinner. Shirl mowed the lawn yesterday morning and all the leaves where gone for about 5 minutes and now there are more on the lawn. We are having a very short fall season.

Okay ! Here we are with a fab Fall time of year.

Early morning surprise. So beautiful I had to run back inside and grab my camera. This beauty stayed around for several minutes. Made me so happy to be able to witness this little miracle. What a grand start for the day.

Well, still trying to get the pictures right.

Okay, I am trying to learn a better way download pictures, and then share them AUGHhhhhh. and

I love 'em and hate 'em computers that is. I have spent about three hours scanning pictures onto my computer and now I cannot get them to move.

How did I do that???? I wanted pictures of my sister Melba and a family picture. Well I guess something is happening.????

Oh, dear me! It is already September 2009

We have had a really great summer. We did some traveling in early spring and visited with family and friends . Then we have had family and friends visit with us . Now we are planning on spending some more time traveling this fall to celebrate Sarah Anne's first birthday. How blessed we are to have such a wonderful life, such a wonderful family, and wonderful friends. We have also had some interesting challenges which help us to appreciate all the wonderful life experiences.
