I love the change of seasons...everything is just so CRISP and fresh.
It's getting cold at night and you actually need a jacket in the morning on your way to work. Yesterday was raining and I ALMOST turned on some heat, but a sweater worked just fine. (I put off turning on the heat as long as possible).
The afternoons are sunny and in the 70's and it's starting to get dark around 6:30 p.m.
WHAT'S HAPPENING THIS FALL
This month is my dad's birthday...he is going to be 76 years old...this man does not take ANY medications and is very active for his age...he just built a wall at his house pretty much by himself with 75 lb. blocks. My brothers and nephews helped out when they could (mom and dad live 2 hours away), but dad pretty much did it on his own and he is very proud of that wall.
My nephew John is turning 21 this month (two days after dad) and that is special. John is my sisters youngest child and I was in labor and delivery when he was born. John wasn't an easy delivery and it scared the crap out of me to have a child after that so I wasn't in any rush to go down that road...now look at where I am!
Work is busy for both of us. I'm trying to plan our annual fall gathering here at the house. I was shooting for October 18, but the weekend's are pretty booked up for Michael and it's just to much to try and fit it into September...we will have to wait an see how this plays out. I love the fall gatherings...we get a moon bounce for the kids, a cotton candy machine and I usually have a pinata, games and pumpkins for the kids to decorate...and they get to preview their Halloween costumes at the party. So, hopefully we can works things out and still have the party...I'll miss it if we can't do it this year!
So to wrap up, Happy Birthday to Dad and John!
