BE STILL

THERE IS A SMALL GLITCH

Just a little something!

Our son Rod, moved his family to a canyon. There is a lot to be said about moving to a canyon.  

Tons of peace and quiet!

You get a lot of space.

 They have put in tons of work.

Finally, it is all coming together.

 

A real beauty!

With a small draw back-- just a little one, but pretty serious.

When Michelle, went to take the garbage out a critter was waiting for her.

Yes, it is a diamond back rattlesnake.  I guess he likes the new landscaping also.  

WELCOME TO PARADISE

MY Paradise

Why do I call it paradise?   

You only have to look up

to see heaven

Beauty even on the stormiest

Of nights.

or the beauty of nightfall

 

Maybe it's in the promise of a new day 

I only have to look up, to see the promise of God. That this is the day the lord has made.

 

A LITTLE MORE!!

One more visit to the patch.

Chloe and her best friend

How clever are these girls?

This is the Halloween dance.

 So many to chose from

where would one even start!

Oh my!  how you have grown.

Good job Mom & Dad, another year

of gathering pumpkins

OFF TO THE PUMPKIN PATCH

PUNKINS IN THE PATCH!

Nothing better then picking your own.

Even better when brother helps.

Although brother doesn't look

super happy about this venture.

This is very serious business.

Picking out just the right pumpkin

is not for the faint of heart.

It was a fun day!

So Chloe, brother Blake and mom&dad, all had a busy day. Picking out just the right pumpkin, that will soon be a punkin!   Halloween will soon be here.

LET ME EXPLAIN

Sorry about that!

When writing yesterday, I threw out the name of a drink called Arnold Palmer.  

Sometimes I think everyone knows everything and I am the only one that knows nothing.

Arnold Palmer, was a very famous golfer. NO! I do not golf nor do I know anyone that does.

I had my first Arnold Palmer drink on a hot day at a Chinese restaurant. I know right!! Who would guess that combination.

Half tea/half lemonade

There doesn't seem to be a recipe for making it, just half tea/half lemonade and lots of ice.

The name came when the famous golfer ordered a glass, on a hot day after a tournament. 

How I make it!

It comes in a can.

I buy it at Wal-Mart

 

Just found out Amazon will deliver😉

Does it get any better?

 

 It does get a little better if you add spirits, but, then it is a John Daley.

who knew I had all these useless facts??? 

 

WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS YOU__

Make a Arnold Palmer

 Yes, my new obsession.  I don't have a recipe, I buy the mix at Wal-Mart😆. Probably should learn to make it with out a mix, it would probably be better.

I am back to my sewing machine, making totally worthless but cute Christmas presents.

The fabric bowls are to hold hot/cold things. You can put them in the microwave so your bowls can be lifted from the microwave with out fumbling around with a pot holder.  Or! you can put a bowl of ice cream in the holder and hold it on your lap.  
The placemats are for a daughter in law that wants a set for every holiday.  Right now, I am working on Christmas for her.

How about a coaster?

My daughter in law uses hers at work.

 

So, Life is good!
