Autumn Adventures

 

Good morning! How are you doing these days? So far I am enjoying autumn and the trees changing. Yesterday, we drove north, taking country back roads to a lovely restaurant to meet my dad and my step mom for lunch. We had wonderful food and a lovely visit with them. We drove back a different way, again, using back country roads and the views were amazing. I don't think the trees are at peak colors but it's very close to peak. 

I pulled out some scrap wools for my gnome-marathon knitting. Hopefully I will start today. We are hosting our families for Thanksgiving (12 adults and 3 children) and my list is long on what I want done around the house and what I need to purchase to stream-line this event.

I'm happy to report that we did buy a new fridge and dishwasher this week and they will be here next week. That gives me one week to eat as much food as possible, ha ha ha. What a big purchase! I'm looking forward to our families gathering together.

  2. How wonderful that you will have your family with you for Thanksgiving! The price of appliances is incredible these days. We recently had to purchase a new upright freezer. I dread the day our 30 year old refrigerator dies.

  5. So glad you got your new appliances purchased. Last summer, when we moved into this house where we live now, we bought all new kitchen appliances - refrigerator, range and dishwasher. They sure make a difference and we are enjoying them. It's great that you will be having Thanksgiving at your home. The lunch meet-up with your dad and step mom sounds very nice. I hope you have a good weekend. See you again soon!
