Happy November

It's November already!  Our October went by way too quickly!  How about for you?  
How was everyone's Halloween?  Our son went to a costume party in downtown Raleigh where a good friend of his owns an establishment.  Hubby and I stayed in because I'm still trying to rid myself of a nasty cold.

The trees around here are full of color, they're beautiful!  Spring and Fall are my favorite times of year.  Hope you're having beautiful days!

Pretty Garden

Hope everyone is enjoying some beautiful weather!  We've had perfect crisp days since the rain finally stopped.

This little produce stand has become a favorite destination for us.  It's only about five or six miles from our home.  Doesn't it just take you back to simpler times?  
On the basket it reads something like "I have a tomato loving squirrel, so please don't leave lid open."  lol
I love the old truck.  It reminds me of the one my granddad drove.  Everyone morning he would drive to the country store to have coffee with his friends.  

Happy October to everyone!  Any big plans for anyone this month?  We will be carving pumpkins for Halloween and handing out candy. :)

So Beautiful to Me

Hubby and I were out looking at homes and neighborhoods this past weekend.  We were about ten minutes from home in Apex, when these Does and Fawns crossed our path we just parked the vehicle and enjoyed the gift of such beautiful creatures.  
It's easy to complain about wildlife sometimes, but I'm sure they have some legit complaints about us humans. :)  
Hope you enjoy these photos and video.  The windshield was dirty and I was trying to take pics and videos with the same camera. lol

P.S. Sandra, wish you had been with me. :)

Sunflower Buffet

These Goldfinches had sunflower buffets in our backyard for weeks!  There wasn't much competition, just an occasional bee.  They looked directly at me a few times, I think they were saying thank you. :)  

This is what we started with..

Let the buffet begin..lol

Beautiful Clouds

It's finally cooled off here and we've only been in the 80's during the day and it's felt like fall in the evenings...so nice for August.
Son has been dealing with a bad sore throat for a few days. He started off with a fever and we knocked it out and he hasn't had one since.  We took him to the doctor and he doesn't have strep or an infection thank goodness!  He's never had a sore throat to last so long without an infection.  He seems to catch so much yucky stuff working in a restaurant.  Classes start back next week so he has to be in tip top shape!

I'm still looking at new laptops.  It's all so confusing!  I can't stand being stuck at this desktop, I'm use to multi-tasking. :)
Hope you're having good weather and a happy summer!  

Life is Busy!

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!  We've been keeping extra busy, but I'm not complaining. :)  Mom and dad came for a visit.  They had to be here for their grandson's 19th birthday!  Yes, my baby boy is 19 yrs young, hard to believe!  Besides this big celebration we celebrated Father's Day, Mother's Day and my Mother's birthday!!!  It was a vacation for us all!
After all the celebrations and vacation hubby had returned to work.  On his second day back to work I got a call that he was being taken to the ER by ambulance, I was freaking out!!  Kyle and I met the ambulance there!  It turned out to be kidney stones.  We're grateful it wasn't something worse.  He's back to his good health and now has an idea of what labor is like for a woman. ha ha!:)
Talking about health issues and hospital visits make me think of Ginny and Phil at Let Your Light Shine.  Most of you that visit me probably visit sweet Ginny.  Phil, Ginny's husband, has been diagnosed with Melanoma.  I lost my granddaddy to this cancer and I'm at high risk for melanoma because I have dysplastic nevus syndrome.  Even if you don't know Ginny and Phil please say a prayer for them.  

I'll be making my way around blog land playing catch up.  I've missed everyone's stories and photos!  :)

Our baby boy, Kyle!
Love you, son!

Roxanne-Love with her boy, Kyle!

My Mom & Dad.
Love you both so much!
