Thursday afternoon

Well, it has been a while, but finally a quiet moment here to catch up.....first of all ...Grace...what a year for you...sending hugs to you and DH....

Have enjoyed seeing the doggie pixs and the lovely scenery pixs....tho Kathy I will say that those mountain shots sent shivers up and down me......it reminds me winter is coming and soon....but right now we are enjoying very "warm" temps for us in November....10 Celsius today or about 50 Fairenheight....we have been protected by our place on Lake Superior from any of the real early storms.....we seem to be just on the edge.....but the local forecast is showing possible flurries for the weekend.....at this time of year I look forward to the snow....the nights are so dark so early....I have had a difficult time this year with the time change for some reason.....

Sara....I know what you mean about feeling under pressure about gift making....and this is my year to feel that.....I am in the process of sandwiching 5 twin size quilts for the grandkids.....not sure why this was such a brilliant idea when I had it....but once I get going on the quilting it will be enjoyable.....I may be sewing the binding down on Christmas Eve but it will be done.....I have a day or two of grace since I won't see the two step grandkids til the 27th probably so their binding may be last.....and I have elected to have the gang here......will only be eleven of us but it sure fills this house fast......

Next weekend I have arranged to have a family pix taken ..... with all 13 of us plus some individual ones with the grandsons.....if my own sons cooperate then maybe I will get some updated individual family ones as well.......We did this approx 15 months ago but the famiy has expanded and it is time to do a retake.....we are using the same photographer who did our wedding pixs almost 29 years ago and did a family shot of the five of us about 18 years ago.....so when I literally bumped into him I figured it was a good time to ask and he agreed......I would have liked to have been outside but even at 10degrees Celsius it may be warm but not enuf to be standing around.....

Have a new vehicle on order and since the production date isn't even scheduled we have been able to change the colour option I hope......after seeing what was our original choice on a vehicle we both agreed that it was better to wait a bit more and get the one we wanted instead of settling.....it is just unnerving to sign for that order......it will be the last new vehicle for a long long time.........we have always done a 2 or 3 year old vehicle but nothing is available for what we were looking for....

Well break is over....back to pinning quilts.......wishing everyone the best day possible....
