A little nuts

I gave this card to Hannah's teacher. I wrote "Nuts about you," under the squirrel. I thought it turned out really cute. The pattern (as are all other cards I've stitched) is by Form-A-Lines.

Autumn in Texas

The last few weeks have been full of fall events, from the Texas State Fair to Hannah's school fair. Daddy went with the fourth grade class; he said they walked ALL over the fair, even though it was raining outside. Let's just say Hannah slept well that night (Daddy did too!) ha! Daddy won a prize for Hannah, a HUGE stuffed dog.

The fall fair at school is a fundraiser and, surprisingly, was considered a school day, even though it was held on a Sunday. I think that might be because of so many of the kids were sick at the beginning of the semester. Anyway, Hannah had a great time and she was able to play lots of games as well as help her teacher at the fourth grade booth.

Anyway, we've kept busy with the usual busyness of life, homework, church, I Love Lucy shows from the library (Hannah's favorite), etc. I love to hear Hannah's belly laughs when she watches Lucy's antics after school.

Guess that's all for now.

Autumn: Almost here!

I'm so excited that fall is almost here!

Ah, autumn: the crisp, need-my-sweater weather; hand-carved pumpkins; apple cinnamon candles; soup, laden with vegetables, simmering on the stove; cozy, cuddle-filled nights with that extra blanket on top; walking atop "crunchies" (acorns) near big and small oaks alike; and the put-another-log-in-the-fireplace feeling. It's almost here!!!
