Falling...

Fall is here and I am so very happy! I have always enjoyed Fall. The air is crisp, the leaves are turning wonderful colors and it is the perfect time to curl up with a blanket and a good book in front of the fire! You get to break out the sweaters and not feel like your going to melt into a pile of gelatenous goo!

I went to the Kiff Fall Festival last weekend. The food was great. They served tri-tip (mmmmmmmmmmm!) and chicken and cookies for dessert. As always, they had a pumpkin decorating contest. The kids did a great job! These were my favorites.


There was this really cute boy, who was probably two, he would take his pumpkin up a small hill and let the pumpkin roll down the hill. His giggle was infectious! Before I knew it, there was a small audience enjoying this boys adventures in pumpkin rolling. In the evening, there was a campfire and smores and the best thing of all...I won a fifty dollar Best Buy card! This is the second year I won one of the raffles! I think that I will be going back next year and see if I can make it three for three!

I also went on a Fall Photo Safari. It was alot of fun! I took the camera and went for a little drive around town and snap a few photos.


I took this pumpkin picture at the local pumpkin patch.

This was taken down the street from my home.

Victoria got her new glasses on October 13th. They look really cute on her and she picked them out herself! She hasn't told me whether or not Angel likes them.


Not much else has been going on here. Just, dare I say it, making Christmas gifts and working. I have been enjoying my camera more. Getting out and taking pictures and noticing the world around me.

Love ya!

50 Inches Of Pure Viewing Pleasure!

So I have entered in to the age of the modern television! We are now the proud owners of a 50 inch plasma hdtv! I justify the purchase by saying that I was going blind and couldn't see my 32 inch tv anymore! But to be honest...it's just cool to say, "I have a 50 inch plasma hdtv!"

Victoria got her eyes checked last week and her eyes have gotten worse! She needs the 50 inch plasma hdtv more than I do! As soon as she gets her new glasses I will post a picture.

I am so happy that I have gotten in touch with my friend Sean Crees. It is funny how God brings people back into your life. I have known Sean since I was really young, about 12 I guess. We went to the same church, Bethel Assembly of God. The yellow church down the street from where I grew up. His mom was the youth leader and she always directed the church plays and the youth choir. They were some good times. I look forward to more good with Sean.

Not much else has been going on lately. I am currently reading "Hawkes Harbor" by S.E. Hinton who wrote "The Outsiders". So far it is a good book. I have been listening to Telfaire a lot lately. They are a really great band from Nor. Cal. Check them out at http://www.myspace.com/telfaire .
