Enjoying Fall

 Classes are fun; the teen and woman in the forefront have designing gifts. 

 Mother and daughter are learning on the Quantum Singer.

 We love Colorado's climate and LOVE snow!

 While I took a walk, Doc stacked wood for imminent fires.

First Fire, First Frost

 Chilly walk

 It's 40 and I need my heavier coat!

 We had our first fire last night.

This morning we woke up to frost!!

Hygge All Day

 Dennis was fascinated by the process of making apple juice.

 picking apples and removing apples from the gutter

 on the garage roo, picking apples

 rinsing the freshly picked crop

 
 cutting into pieces

 putting apple pieces into the contraption

 getting apple seeds for Alexander, per his request

 lots of yummy juice

 grilling burgers for a late lunch

 
canning the apple juice; he also made and canned strawberry jam

Morning Hygge

 I walked first, in 47 degrees, and then joined Doc by the fire.

 

Walk after Rain

 Everything needed a good drink. Lots of apples fell and some landed in the house gutters.

 It's trying to be fall!  Red leaves, falling leaves.

Harvesting Apples

 They are ready!

 
 
 
 sorting damaged and eaten ones from the good apples

 
It's nearly fall with dying flowers but 90 plus degrees and 6% humidity.

Homemade Raisins

 
Leo gifted us with lots of green grapes from his yard.  Raisins are almost ready to eat!

Late Summer: 95 Degrees, 6% Humidity

 It's 95 degrees and 6% humidity.  The daylily has decided to bloom again!

 
 Purple and pale pink columbines are blooming and making seeds for Dennis and Leo.

Knitting at Panera

 Well I'm knitting, Karen is crocheting.  Great fun! Wonderful company!

Honey crisp Apples

They are falling and make a fun sounding thump on our roof!

Lunch with Grandchildren

 The kindergarten lunch period was mid-morning.  She brought her lunch of nutritious items but

 was a bit distracted by all the additional chaos. 

 This was so fun!

 
 Second graders ate an hour later and he bought a school lunch: pizza.

He perfectly expressed my same wishes; that Daddy and Grandpa work in the same building, and that there was snow!  Hope is a wonderful feeling of desire!  I pray every day that we live closer!!
