Fall Love!











We have been soaking up every bit of this gorgeous fall weather that we can. Playing out at the farms, raking leaves, and enjoying the general splendor that is Fall. I love how the neighborhood looks like it just got snowed on by a dozen different colored leaves. While we are harvesting pumpkins and squash there are babies being born all over the city! I got started on some more fruit caps and a new little pear cap.

Fabulous Fall!






Fall is my all time favorite season. It is always crisp and warm somehow at the same time. The colors are vibrant and gorgeous and it is the season of harvest! In addition to spending as much time visiting farms with the kids, I also love to knit in this weather. I feel it's like preparing for winter. My first fall project is a pair of Prairie Boots for my friend Jen for her birthday. Her all time fav color is purple so I picked a great plum color in good ol Lamb's Pride. Next up is to pick out some buttons! It requires 6 for each boot! I'm getting to it!

I finished the star blanket, my first crochet project. I really love it and enjoy crochet! Jimmy liked it too!

Roller Skatin!






We took advantage of a rainy Saturday afternoon and caught the early skate at Oakes
Park. It was all we dreamed of and more! We held hands, the three of us, and wobbled around the outside of the rink to great hits from groups like the C&C music factory. We dodged other skaters, and admired the truly seasoned ones that whizzed by doing cool dance moves. In short, we had an incredible time and plan on going back for more!
