I thought I had better write about some of our autumn activities before winter sets in completely. (We did have our first accumulation of snow on the ground last night–yay!) This year’s fall season was beautiful, but short. It seems like the leaves dropped rather quickly. Back in October, while Stephen was away at the… Read More Columbus Day Caramel Apples
Thank you, veterans and military servicemen and women for fighting for our freedom!
