Beauty

Yesterday was a gorgeous day. The temperature rose to nearly 60 degrees and the sun was shining. A perfect afternoon for a walk. So off to my favorite place - Hoffmaster State park. The camping area is closed but I park outside the gates and walk in.

 

I was sitting on a bench in my favorite, peaceful spot and a friendly doggie came running up to me. He had been out for a swim in Lake Michigan. He was so happy. His name...Chew. I ended up walking with his owner, Marcia for the remainder of my walk. Nice lady, nice walk, wonderful day.

Rain and wind today for trick or treat. Kids will be disappointed. Enjoy the ghost and goblins in your world today.

A Little Fall Project

I saw this on Spontaneous Clapping blog and thought my little JoJo would love it. So for the past week, we've been cutting out felt leaves, acorns and pumpkins.

Mailed it out and yes, she loves it. Well, maybe she loved the little bags of M&M's I sent more!

Mama was dropping it down a bit so she could reach it better but she wanted it up right away so she could play. Have fun. JoJo!

Time to Break Out the Warm Clothes

It's not looking pretty folks!

On another note, I spent some time over the weekend looking for living room furniture. All I know is that I want a linen color solid couch. And what does darling husband want, a big ol' stuffed power recliner. It's certainly not going to fit with the Pottery Barn/Restoration Hardware look I was hoping for. Now what do I do? Not sure what to do about tables either. This is so difficult! Any ideas out there?

Busy week ahead. Mama's birthday and Florida family visiting for the long weekend! Yippee!

Random Five on Friday

One. First and foremost, a Happy anniversary to my BFF and her husband Jack! What a great couple. They just returned last night from their celebration in NYC. Can't wait to hear all about it!

Two. Busy, busy week with commitments. Volunteering, appointments (three this week), errands, etc.

Three. Not too much on the cooking this week. I did make my yummy chicken noodle soup and dutch oven bread. It was perfect on a rainy, damp day. I also made a crockpot casserole dish...Hamburger Chop Suey. I was given the recipe last weekend from a friend at the harvest fest. It was tasty. My husband and mother loved it!

Four. I am in the process of making a cute little craft for a cute little girl! I'll share with you soon.

Five. Yucky outlook weather-wise ahead. Cold, rain, wind for the next ten days. Maybe some of that stuff that starts with the letter s!

Have a great weekend my friends.

Babs~
