First Big Girl Puzzle

Georgia completed her first Big Girl Puzzle tonight with no help!

Just Finished Reading...

Nice book on taking advantage of every day, but sad because who knows if he knew Jesus Christ has his personal Lord & Savior.

Finally Finished Reading...

This book took me a while, simply because I don't always have time to read. I wish life could be more like this book. Even if it means not having all of our modern conveniences. I have also read two other of Elisabeth Elliott's books, Passion and Purity and Shadow Of the Almighty. I loved these books, and if you haven't read any of these - do it!!

Fall In Maryland

One of the things I love about Maryland is having actual seasons with temps coinciding with the season. I can remember Thankgsivings in Mississippi wearing shorts to the dinner table. We always went to Kentucky for Christmas, so I don't know what it was like in Mississippi for Christmas. In Maryland, it's long sleeves and coats every year. In Mississippi, Georgia had a couple of heavy sweaters to wear when it was cold. Here, she has five or six coats of varying degrees of warmth, a pair of snow pants, and snow boots.

Anyway, I meant to take pictures of the trees this Fall, but never got around to it. While I was in Mississippi, Rick took these pictures for me. It is late in the season and most of the leaves have fallen, but it gives you an idea of the beautiful Fall trees outside our door. My favorites have already turned and lost their leaves, but I hope you enjoy!

Larriland Farm

Aunt E came to vist for the weekend since she will be in Argentina over Thanksgiving. While she was here we went apple picking at Larriland Farms. The drive over was absolutely gorgeous. We picked apples, bought home-made goodies, and G went through the maze. It was a lovely family adventure, and one that will have to be an annual tradition!

Different views across the farm

Aunt E took these, and I thought she was going to get G

in the maze. However, I am sure G was not cooperating!

Georgia picking apples!

I still don't know what we are going to do with all of our apples.

We only picked the sour ones, ugh!!

Hat Day At School!!

It was Hat Day at school today. Poppy was proud of Georgia's selection, but he also bribed her with money to wear it! If you can't tell, it's a Univsity of Kentucky cap. Can you see what G is watching in the oven? We made Taco Soup and cookies for dinner. G's making sure her cookies bake right!
