This is NOT frost on the pumpkins... it's the "s" word!!! And though it's just a tiny little bit, it's the sign of things to come!!! I'm just not quite ready yet....but I guess "it's" not going to wait for me....
In a couple of weeks, Sadie's dear friend, Tara is coming for Thanksgiving. She and Sadie went to school together and Tara hasn't been "home" since starting college in Mississippi three years ago. Tara's family moved just after she left for college, so she hasn't even been here on school breaks and the like. She is SO hoping we have snow when she comes, I hate to disappoint her, but I am SO hoping we won't. I told her there will be plenty of "other" Maine things to do while she is here!!!!
Can you tell that the woodstove is chugging once again?? Any time we want to "find" someone, all you have to do is look near the stove!!! silly creatures, they certainly know where its comfortable....
And very good news!!! Patrick is home once again with his dear Mandi and beloved Maya... he was gone for 295 days!! I know that, because Mandi kept a daily on line blog recording all of Maya's adventures while her Daddy was away...
this is "what" Maya looked like when her Daddy left.... needless to say, he must see HUGE changes in her... but, now they will all be together for the holidays, and then moving onto another base...
God bless our service men and women!!!! and please bless their families who wait while they are gone.....
THANK YOU PATRICK!!!!!!!! Welcome home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I cannot believe you are getting snow already! I don't know all about Maine weather, but it doesn't seem like your summers last very long! I grew up in OHio and I never remember it snowing on Halloween and my friend said it did this year! Bright, Sunny, & Warm here today. This NC weather has spoiled me for sure and certain! I love all the pictures you've posted today. But my favorite are the last 2. Yea, thank you service men/women of America who still fight for my freedoms! Thanks for sharing.
I am thanking God that I did not wake up to that.... what a difference a few miles and the ocean makes!.... thanks for not typeing the S WORD... it's a bad word We Don't Say Bad Words Momma!
So glad to hear that another one of our service men came home safe and sound! Great pictures!
Your grandbaby is just adorable! You will have so much fun with her. The dogs do seem to be very worried about her having a bath!!
Love the picture of the dogs and cat in front of the wood stove. They sure look comfy!
I know what you mean about small town living. It's the best!
Sue, I absolutely need that hat pattern! Did you make it? Alex's 'theme' is forest animals, and I sooo need a hedgehog hat!! Beth Wilson qltldy10@207me.com
