Around the block: September '08

Autumn is just beginning to change our landscape. I didn't want the summer to slip away without catching some of it in our photo archives. I have loved seeing the harvest seasons in all our surrounding fields. The hills are a patchwork quilt of trees and alfalfa and corn fields. Soon we'll have a rainbow of fall color. I love this time of year.





Lucky cows.

Lake Michigan from the top of the hill where we live.




This rather reminds me of a Rothko color field.

So quaint.

a completely wonderful day

Why today was a super great day:
  • I played opossum in bed while Cori made breakfast. Then I relaxed while he made me a sandwich for lunch. And I messed around on the computer while he made dinner. Then he cleaned up the kitchen while I gave the kids a bath before bed. A whole day without work in the kitchen.

  • Cori got to watch the BYU football game. On our TV. Live. It was an exciting game at the end with a semi-controversial call that the commentators are still talking about. Cori went totally crazy. Our kids had no idea what to think about their possessed father. It made me very happy to see him so very happy (crazed).

  • Gracie used her potty chair twice. She had a few accidents. But she is doing well. She has also accepted the idea of wearing underpants. Commando no more, hallelujah.

  • I got to spend a bit of my afternoon taking pictures of this cute family. Lillian and I became fast friends when we moved here. Her husband is a dentist and they were in need of a new picture for their phonebook ad. Don't they have beautiful kids?
