The Ford Mustang



I think this photo shows the last of the fall leaves. November is a pretty stark month.


Welcome to the month of November anyway!

K is displaying a marked interest in driving these days. He also said he wants to start learning how to drive as soon as he turns 16. He's also trying to convince me to buy a Ford Mustang as my next car. Yes, right, in his dreams. I told him middle-aged women like me drive staid looking 4-door sedans. He's not happy with learning to drive in something like that!

Church is crowded at this time of year. Yesterday, there were lots of little kids heading downstairs for catechism classes. A couple of rows ahead of me, there were 2 cute little toddlers bestowing kisses and hugs upon each other to our delight. Too bad they had coughs. The priest announced there would be a children's Christmas pageant this year just before the Xmas eve mass. It's almost time to visit the annual Christmas craft sale too. There were snow flurries on my walk home and some more in the afternoon although the sun came out.

It was a cold Halloween. We only had 11 kids. K and his friend had fun anyway. L thinks they're too old for trick or treating. They did watch some scary movies prior to heading out.

I made these Chocolate Chip Pumpkin cookies from The Southern Lady Cooks. They are delicious. I left the nuts out (K's preference).

My son wasn't thrilled when we ended up buying a lavender Camry by mistake. We thought it was silver. Anyway, we gave it to him before moving to Hawaii and that's what he's driving. No, he's not happy about it. I'm sure he would much prefer a black mustang. Ah well... it runs. That's the main thing. Good luck with the driving lessons. It was scary when my kids were first learning, but now they are great drivers.

I was surprised that we had more 20 trick or treaters. It was a lot of fun!

Hahahahahahaha! This post made me laugh. I remember wanting a jaguar when I first started learning how to drive. :-D

Those cookies look yummy! You certainly are getting in the autumn spirit :-)

Kay, well the Camry's a very reliable car.

Japra, never a dull moment with kids.
