Sorry I had to rush off so quickly earlier. I was hoping to have time to publish a proper post, unfortunately one of my many commitments called me away. I hope you enjoyed the pictures of Autumn here in our little valley. It was absolutely stunning this year. The leaves were glorious and the sun kept shining. We have only had a few days of rain making it easier for the farmers to get in all the crops before the snow flies.
The farmer behind our house was out on a Saturday, combining the soy beans and his big red combine looked so pretty against the colorful hills I couldn't help but take some pictures.
Isn't it beautiful????
The kids have been busy too! Cookie Monster is a Senior this year (where did THAT time go????) So of course everything is his last and Mama won't miss a thing. We have had football pepband, concerts and parades. I really will miss going to watch him. And of course there are Senior Pictures too!
And let's not forget about Princess Pea with all her friends and activities - dance classes, girl scouts, Middle School Mentors, and gymnastics. Like I said, I can barely keep up!
We also took a family trip to Minneapolis over Labor Day weekend and took in the Renessaince Festival and Sea Life at the Mall of America

It seems that I didn't even really have time to enjoy the autumn this year, which makes me really sad because it is my absolutely favorite time of year! Things have been so busy here that I feel like I can't keep up some days. We are finally moved into our house (well we have a few things left in storage yet). We have also been enjoying our very large yard!

Mama is also busy. I am Secretary of the Board for our local festival (Syttende Mai) this year and and Co-Chair of the Art and Craft Show! That means I have to visit other Craft Shows....Oh Darn!! Tee Hee!

And my little brother got married in September!!!
Whew!!!! As you can see, we have had a very busy Autumn here in our little valley. I am hoping to add more pictures of all these activities in the near future! But for now my friends, I must head for bed.
I will close with a few things from my Gifts List for today...
- for keeping friends and family on the East Coast safe through the storm
- for letting me wake another day
- for frost on the windshield
- for allowing my daughter to feel like she can come tell me anything
- for letting me miss the deer on the road this evening.
- for snuggle time in the morning
Good night dear friends....God Bless
