Freezing and Fun on the First Day of Fall

For the first day of Fall, it got down into the lower 60s and sprinkled most of the day. I sat in a workshop with the air conditioning running full blast. I'm normally hot natured, but I felt like I was freezing. I almost drove to a store to find something warm to wear.

For something fun, we used the car pan that Beth baught us to make some fun car cupcakes. We enjoyed decorating them this evening.

I know we had more fun than you :-) by Richard

Sucker Drawing

Alyssa drew Richard and I a picture of some suckers yesterday while Nana was here. When we got home she said she wanted to give them to us. And then she said (while looking serious and moving her hand in a serious manner), "Those are suckers. Not like the 'You Suck' kind, but ones that you eat!" Nana, Richard, and I just all had to turn our backs to her and laugh.

You NEVER know what kids will say!
