Well, it suddenly (thankfully) feels like fall around here! After a really hot September, we ring in October tomorrow– the best month out of the whole year, in my opinion — with chilly mornings and evenings, pulling out those warm blankets to snuggle under when the open windows have made it oh-so-cold inside. I have already been baking up a storm and the whole house smells so good.
Also, we harvested our gourds (yes, they are supposed to turn black like that) so that they can weather the winter. We will make them into bird houses and all sorts of things in the spring once they’re completely dried and we’ve scrubbed them clean. I’m looking forward to that project!
We’re looking forward to plenty of outside time this weekend, including a bonfire with friends and I’m sure plenty of skateboarding at the playground. Milo and Oliver bought their first skateboards with some birthday money, and now they practice every chance they get. Of course, Emil hopped on and immediately got the hang of it, ha! I’m hoping for no stitches…
Enjoy your weekend, and welcome, October!
The brothers hugging is so so so sweet! Also, look at all the gourds! WOW! I can’t wait to see all the projects you make. So happy you are back blogging again.
