thank goodness for friends

So I started a blog for my parents family and then this one for my family. So far I'm pretty darn proud of my self. So I emailed my siblings and told them of my great achievement and advised them that hey should log on and view my feat of great genius. Actually I was so excited that I wanted to share. My hope is that my family might more easily keep up on things with each other via this lovely bit of technology.
My sister has emailed me and she cannot for the life of her get the address I gave her to open it up. [much to my dismay] So I log on and while doing so I'm thinking that if I can do this it can't be that hard. so I open it up and all of the blogs I began are in a strange language.. I don't know what in the world is going on. So after many attempts I'm thinking no wonder she can't open it up. So I did what everyone does [who is lucky enough to know my good friend] I called Audrey and she takes the time to look up my blog and she miraculously gets me to where I can change the language from Norsk to English. A simple click of a button and viola my little blog creations have been set right again. YAHOOOO!! Thanks Audrey!! She saves my life often.

Fall settles in
I actually think that tonight it feels more like winter and I should have pulled out all my lovely flowers last week when it was still warm.. All my flowers still looked so beautiful and happy I just couldn't bring myself to pull them out. So I decided to just weed and now tonight it looks like they will probably freeze any way....
So I'll put another blanket on the bed [Which I love] it reminds me of being at my Grandmothers little farm house in Idaho and snuggling in under those old heavy blankets and feeling safe happy and warm.

fall sneaking in

Trying to start a blog for me is challenging. I hope however to endeavor until I finally succeed at this technology stuff.
To begin I am sooooo not ready for summer to end. I think I got robbed somehow. I'm not done sitting on my porch swing enjoying the warm light of the long evenings, going to movies in the park and sleeping in a little. I could still plant some more flowers or bushes and watch my garden grow and eat the fresh stuff that it so plentifully gives me. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy this time of year too. Eating fresh peaches[from our tree] and raspberries for breakfast, picking corn for dinner, making and then eating fresh salsa from the tomato patch. Yes this season has much to offer but my favorite is sweet summer time. School is out and we are swimming and splashing in the pool with the kids, and going for leisurely walks and skipping rocks into the canal. Summer I Love it parades, fireworks, camping [which we did this year twice, and in a tent]
I think fall sneaked in a bit early this year when football started.
It[ football season] came a week early this year. So far it has been fun but hello a LOTof time... It's a good thing that Nathan loves it.
