Last week in October

Before the game....even handsome from the back. (right in the center of the photo)

Last game of the season. Turner Ashby beat Broadway 41-7. Yay!!!

Addie was the drum major this year. She is a senior and so sweet. I snapped a picture of her and Josh after halftime. We are going to miss her!

Our buddy, Dale Richards, and Josh. Not sure about this pic. I guess Josh had five minutes to get ready....he said he came as "Megan, Grandma, Jedi." Had on Meg's Galley2 shirt, skirt, pearls, a few belts, some ties, a scarf that reminded him of Grandma...and of course the Jedi sword.
Strange guys.

Maggie, Sonya, Nancy and Josh. What a crew.

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

Well, I haven't carved a pumpkin yet this year, how about you?

(Josh carved one tonight at Maggie's house...of the Canadian flag...yep...I guess he saw a maple leaf cookie cutter. Make sense, I guess)

Anyway....if you feel a little left out...and are dying to carve your own pumpkin..........this is for you:

(but....you don't get any pumpkin seeds to roast. Now that is a down side)

Enjoy!

(and don't forget to clean up your mess...carving pumpkins is a dirty job!)

Little Drummer Boy

Josh is CRAZY for the drums! He has a lot of talent, but I especially love his passion. I love how excited he gets about anything musical.

ROCK ON JOSH!

Pullin' in to Wal-Mart...

...just one reason I love living in the valley.

Where do I start?

I just got on my blog and looked at my unposted blogs. Pictures I wanted to share but hadn't written about. Add to that an incredibly full last few months, and I think I should blog ten times a day for the next little while.

I can't get overwhelmed. This is supposed to be fun.

So...I am just going to share what I can.

I love reading all your blogs, though. I am glad you are better at this than I am. Keep them coming.

See you soon!

Ceiling Art

The skies have been just beautiful lately....most the time I don't have my camera with me.
I did capture the sky a couple of times recently, though. The above picture was taken last week in the mall parking lot right before sundown.

I picked up Josh and friends from marching band practice the other day, and stopped while driving out of the high school because the sky took my breath away.

I need to remember to look up.

Yep...that's a good thing to remember.

ByeBye to Summer!

OK...so I know Halloween is around the corner...and we are smack dab in the middle of my favorite season of the year, but I came across these pics of the beauty I enjoyed in my own front yard this summer, and just felt grateful.
His creations are all around us.
