Finally it feels like Fall............

Finally this week the temperatures have dropped for us here in the Canyon. Anything below 100 degrees makes us all happy. Granted, that today it will still be close to 90 but we can handle that. The leaves have not yet turned but I wanted to give you a heads up on some great photos.

Fall in the Canyon

Patrick Swayze

Patrick Swayze, the gracefully macho Texan who swiveled his way to movie stardom in 1987's Dirty Dancing, died Monday at 57 after waging a valiant public battle against pancreatic cancer.

Patrick stared in three of my all time favorite movies: Dirty Dancing, Ghost and Point Break. I don't know any girl who didn't fall in love with him after seeing him in Dirty Dancing.

He will be missed by many................Bon Voyage!!

Northern Weekend

This past weekend I traveled north to spend three days with my daughter and her family..............THOSE SWEET GRANDBABIES!!!! We had such a wonderful time together. We baked, cooked, went to church, rode bikes, played games and just enjoyed being together. Then on Monday we spent the whole day shopping and had lunch at Olive Garden.
Look...............I have no training wheels on my bike anymore...........!!!! Cause I a big boy now Nana!

Like Mother........Like Daughter.........Tall and Skinny...........

We all posed after church...........and yes...the sun was in our eyes!! Ha Ha

Sisterly Love................

Baby Girl sure loves her NaNa........................

Our Day At "Build A Bear"

My daughter and I took the kids to Build a Bear on Monday. What a great time. Whoever came up with this idea is a genius and a rich one at that. We had the best time and needless to say the kids were elated with their treasures.

So much to pick from...........They have a little bit of everything. It was hard for them to choose the outfit to go with their animal.

After the nice lady stuffs the bear with the magic "stuffing machine" you take it over to this bathing area and it blow drys your animal.............aka "Bath"... Ha Ha..

The magic "Stuffing Machine"

It's the new Fall Bear................and I think she loves it.!!!!

They each got a shirt and then a back pack to carry their animals in.................Luke got the snow leopard..................It was so much fun............ I know I spoil them................

My Halloween Tree................

Halloween makes me happy..............Yes, I put up a Halloween tree this year!!

Halloween Costumes 2009

Yes.............We are getting ready for Halloween already. It is our favorite holiday! My sweet Layni was even born on Halloween and we call her our little "Ghoul". This past weekend the kids tried on their costumes for NaNa and of course I took lots of cute pics. My cute little pirate and my little witch.

CRASH !

Well..............let's just say this....Nothing lasts forever.........

Last week my computer hard drive passed away. It has been the best computer ever! I bought it brand new six years ago. It was a Dell. Six years is a pretty good life span for a computer.

There will be no viewing and no graveside service !!!!

I will keep you posted as I am looking for a new computer. .... Of course I am going with a Dell again.

I have actually gotten alot of other stuff done since the passing of my PC ! Amazing! I haven't really missed it that much!....................Life never ceases to surprise me.
