Happy Halloween


Just wanted to say Happy Halloween to everyone. I know that I am a little early but I probably won't be around or won't have time to get a shout out to everyone before then. Still not quite sure what to plan is for Halloween but I'm sure that I will end up over at mom and dad's handing out candy to all the trick-o-treaters. We don't get any here at the apartment. I do enjoy seeing all the little kids dress up. They are so cute! So I hope every one has a safe and Happy Halloween!!!

FALL


The best things about Fall:
1. The colors of the leaves changing on the trees
2. The smell of leaves and pine needles - and the smell of the leaf burning piles
3. Going to apple orchards and pumpkin patches
4. The smell of apple and pumpkin pie
5. Being able to snuggle up in a sweatshirt of a blanket
6. The cool nights and warm days
7. Seeing all the kids get excited about Halloween
8. Being able to bake in the kitchen with out roasting to death
9. Eating home made soups
10. The noise of the birds getting ready to migrate south for the winter
So there it is, my top 10 list of the best things I like about Fall. I have to say it is one of my favorite seasons. It is a toss up between Fall and Winter.
So I know I have not been the best blogger in the world. Things have just been so hectic lately. So here is an update on our busy lives. David is working for LAI Inc. down in Fridley. He is on 2nd shift and seems to enjoy it for the most part. He is putting in a lot of hours. He works a lot of 6-day work weeks. I have picked up a side painting job. This lady that I work with just bought a new house and had me paint her living room and kitchen, which I have completed and I think that I will be doing the master bedroom when they are ready for it to be done. So with work, school, and painting there just isn't much time for anything else.
We are on the down slide of school. These than one year and counting....41 weeks of actual school left, not including the weeks that we have off between quarters....but who's counting??
Ok so I'm going to say this again....I will TRY to be better at blogging.....no promises.
