Somethin' about Converse... :)

Wyoming

Each year we try and get out to Wyoming to visit grandparents.
 It's always a delightful time. 
Lots of memories for Mama.
A treat for us kids to watch Grandma and Mama reminiscing and seeing where Mama played as a girl. Happy times.

Only in Wyoming. :)

I think I left my heart in Wyoming... again.  :)

Fall is here with all it's colors.
I am particularly in love with the trees on our front lawn.
The delicious gold and brown against the breathtaking blue sky.
Love.

Brussels Spouts in a castiron pan with butter and garlic.  
Can you hear them sizzling? 
Can you smell that delicious golden butter?
Can you see them popping and jumping around in the pan?

A very happy Autumn meal indeed.

Helping Auntie

Little Ethan helped me pick the tomatoes, red hot peppers and brussels sprouts.

After doing a bit of harvest we took a stroll around the block.
Grandma said that we had to make sure we brought back a stick, a rock and a pretty leaf.
He looked SOO carefully for them!! :)
