Hanging out with Mr. Handsome!

It's a beautiful Saturday morning, and I get to spend it with my handsome honey!   Started it out by sleeping in, oh yeah....Coffee was hot and ready when I shuffled my feet to the kitchen.  We drove into town and I worked out at curves, while handsome googled every car in the 3 small local car lots.  Then, we met up with Anna, for a stroll thru the thrift shop.  Now, were hanging at the library enjoying the view of the lake with the reflection of autumn colored leaves.

The plan is to till up the garden and fence in the pumpkins...( There is a animal on the prowl at night that has devoured my garden and has started on the pumpkins).  I hope to make some cabbage rolls for dinner with home made mash potatoes....Think we might have a "fire camp" too? 

Well, enough blogging and time to get moving...Have a great Weekend everyone!

Summer's officially over!

Finished the first week of 2010-2011.  The students and staff were both pretty quiet-I believe we're all in denial! I know I am.   The leaves are starting to turn and the evenings bring a autumn chill.  We ordered corn for the corn stove.  I believe in optimism, I am optimistic that if I am ready for winter it will wait.

Our fun summer get away to bayfield, Wi. is but a sweet memory.  I am hoping we get to do a nice autumn getaway too.  To go hiking in the beauty of autumn color while taking in thesweet crisp scents, sipping our hot cocoa while the scent of burning leaves surrounds us.

We must make it close to an apple orchard so we can go visit there and make some of my killer apple carmel pie.  ( maybe two!)  right, Angie?

It will be tricky to schedule it in with our oldest son Scott, doing the 25 mile bike ride in a couple of weeks and Myself and friends...and all my blog readers...yeah both of you...doing a 5 k walk on September 18th?  I'll check the date and sign us up :)

Wow...2 weeks of walking m.w.f.

I can't believe it is two weeks already since we Lisa and I started walking 3x a week.  We are up to 2.25 miles in 30 minutes! go us.  Neither of us has seen pounds drop, but I know I sure feel great after our walk.  The hard part is going to be continuing this next week as I am back at school.  We'll see how it goes. 

I am going to make a big bowl of homemade chilli now, and maybe my famous apple carmel pie.  hmmmmmmmmmmm  I love autumn!
