Garth’s First Birthday Party
Saturday, November 22 (one day before his birthday) He didn’t seem to understand why all the attention was on him. He was fascinated by all the balloons that his Aunt Lydia brought. We enjoyed a delicious supper of roasted vegetables and sausage. Because she was at the end of the table, Lydia took this picture […]
A Beautiful Frosty Morning in Our Yard
Rhododendron The top of a birdfeeder A frosted frog in a frozen birdbath Frost tipped rose Perennial stonecrop looked extra pretty with frosted edges Our new spreading juniper was pretty as well The fallen leaves also captured my attention.
Visitors for Supper
Tuesday, November 18 The other day our granddaughter Diana messaged me about bringing their children for a play date. We eventually settled on suppertime. Her husband, Donovan, his dad, and some of his brothers are on a white tail hunting trip in the Midwest, so it was a good way for these four to spend […]
Christmas Lights in Our Hometown
We were surprised to drive into the Manheim square on Saturday evening and see that the Christmas lights were already on display. I think I remember when that didn’t happen until after Thanksgiving, but I am okay with Christmas lights being displayed for a very long time. I love Christmas – and even better – […]
Hubcap Tree

Holiday Market on Adele Craft Show
Saturday, November 16 We don’t get to this craft show every year but always enjoy going – especially to see what our nieces and their children have for sale. I usually buy some Cocoa Bombs from our great niece Ashlea. This year I got a raspberry, and Cerwin got a peanut butter. We will enjoy […]
A Beautiful Morning in Our Neighborhood
The sun was coming up as the moon was going down. This is what it looked like on the ground.
Our Roses Are Still Blooming
I think they are prettier than during most of the summer.
Supper with Our Favorite Veteran
Yesterday, Veteran’s Day, Tuesday, November 11 When I talked to our youngest daughter Deb in the morning, we decided on this restaurant in Maryland, about twenty minutes from their house. We had fun talking to Roy about some of his experiences in the Navy. I was surprised at how many countries he visited during that […]
