The Forgotten Holiday

In honor of the great and often ignored holiday, Thanksgiving, which takes a back seat to Halloween and Christmas, I have decided to post some pictures of autumn, when the colors are so beautiful and the days are still warm.

Happy Turkey Day to all, what are you most grateful for this year?

More Pics

A hike in Boardman Park and fun at Aunt Jackie's. No, today we are not going to "eat the slop"

Instead we will have lunch from our favorite Italian deli!!

Sunrise, Sunset

7:29 pm. Pink, orange, peach and white. Off to the side, faded blue, grey, bright yellow and white.
I happened to catch the most splendid sunset this evening. Actually the past three evenings have been spectacular, and all different. I hope I can remember to go outside this week and look for them.
Better than any movie, concert or sporting event!!

Goodbye Summer, good times

Summer fun 2010

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Lots of laughter, fun and endless talking. That's what you get when the girls drive to Columbus for the day. And also a wonderful morning in the Columbus Ohio Temple. What a perfect way to spend a sunny Saturday!
On the way home, more laughter, talking and singin' to the oldies.
Just one flaw in the day, I forgot to bring the pepperoni rolls.
I guess we'll just have to do it all again girls!!

Like Father, Like Sons

It has been nice to see some family from the West this week. Today we enjoyed shopping in Hartville, a fun dinner at Fazoli's and a round of board games, snacks and laughter.
Interesting how all the girls in the group ordered something different, and Walt, Ron, and their dad Larry ordered the exact same meal of Spaghetti and Meatballs. This, of course was unplanned, but not surprising.
I will always see in my mind the three of them watching a game, and no matter what teams are playing, the result is always the same. Three different but unmistakeable sounds of giggling in various tones surrounds the room. For sure we know that their team has made a great play or upped the score to win. Fun times, good memories.
I am thankful for these good men in my life.
