This and That

Happy Halloween! Boy does Halloween look differently these days than even just a couple of years ago. No more trick or treating with my teenagers....they are out doing that with their friends this year. They did want to carve pumpkins so here they are.


I've been hauling this behemoth of a plant inside and outside each fall and summer and it's rewarded me by getting HUGE. The down side is I have very little space for it since I've started collecting more houseplants. It's now sitting where the Christmas Tree is going to go. The thought has crossed my mind to just decorate it this year. I'm pretty sure it's around 35 years old. 


We have this huge family of turkeys that have been visiting us almost daily all summer long. Three females started bringing their 20+ chicks down the driveway in early spring and each day they lounge around eating grasshoppers and drinking from the fountain. I'm glad I've created a yard that is inviting to wildlife. The chicks are now full grown and they still hang around in the back yard most days.

We have found that we really enjoy hockey games and plan to get to a game each month this winter. The October game was fun (except for the dunk guy behind us) and we look forward to seeing more.
