Autumn

Before we launch headlong into the whirlwind of festivities over the coming weeks,  I'd like to give a nod to autumn and the fun things we did.  Here they are... not particularly in chronological order.

Just behind our house on the River Walk.  Ahh... so pretty!
The kids making witches' brew, one of our Halloween activities.
Planted late, here is the fruit of our labor from seeds given to me by my dear friend in Maryland, Sarah.
Jane dressed up for Halloween. 
Harry dressed up for Halloween ... (Jane being the wind beneath his wings -- I mean cape!)

Jane's kindergarten class put on a little play of the Three Billy Goats Gruff, renamed The Three Nanny Goats Gruff.  Jane got to play the part of the biggest nanny goat - "Big Bertha Lee".  Here she is saying her lines, which was followed by a stellar performance of harpooning the trolls with her "finger" horns.  I wasn't able to capture the action shots as well, and it was pretty much impossible to get a shot without someone wiggling.  But it wouldn't be half as cute without all those wiggles!
