Thanksgiving's Day 2013

With all that has been going on, I decided to keep it simple this year. Well, simple in that I didn't invite anyone over. Decided to just keep it family. We enjoyed a delicious and relaxed meal.

 

 L'il Bit wanted to join us. She took over my chair while I was taking pictures.

 

 Everyone's ready to eat

Let's just say - I ate good!

Roxie's Baby Shower

I got to go to Roxie's baby shower. I was late and missed her unwrapping her gifts, but I made it. Snacks served by the hostess, Sandy were very good and the cake was adorable.

The Shenandoahs

We decided to take a drive to see the late, late fall colors. Still some, even though a little subdued, it was beautiful. We always take the south route from Thornton Gap to Big Meadows. One of these days we need to head north.We also saw lots of deer. Just the right nip in the air to make it feel like fall.

I'm a Great- Auntie again!

This time it is on my side of the family. Jennifer and Wade had their little boy, Wesley on Nov. 6, 2013, 

8 lbs. 12.2 ozs., 19 ins. He is so cute! He was born on George's birthday. We had gotten to talk to George and let him know he had a 2nd. cousin.

Halloween 2013

Well, Halloween always starts before the 31st. Jacob and I took Bonnye to Westmoreland Berry Farm to their pumpkin patch to pick her first pumpkin. She was so cute. She inspected them very closely before settling on one.

 Cord and Yank came along as well and picked my pumpkin for me

Just outside the entrance to the berry farm was a small home with these decorations on the little strip of land to the left of it...loved it!



 



 

 

For Halloween, Bonnye dressed up as "Boo" from "Monsters Inc." She was sooooo cute!

 Our pumpkins, we never got around to carving them. Oh well, next year maybe.
