For Mom - The Wedding Quilt

A late morning in October

Here are some photos I took of this gorgeous morning here in the village. I was out walking Ralph and came home specially to get the camera to record the morning. Yesterday was very misty, damp, cold and grey when we were out walking. Today - glorious.

The days start quite chilly, but by about 2pm it can be up to around 15-18 degrees only for a short while before the sun goes behind the hill again.

They were taken from the other end of the village on the bridge near the bar, back towards the house.

The photos really don't to it justice. It was beautiful out there. Anyway back to the painting.

Apple Picking

We took Annika to Frootogo Apple Orchard last Friday - she loves it there!

"Woof woof" said Annika to the goat

She LOVED the bunnies!

You can imagine how easy it was to get this shot!

This lasted a little while...and then she realized she could climb out...

I know you can't really see her in this one - I just love how the photo came out!

Thanksgiving

Annika did a face-plant into the gravel on Saturday morning, so she had a scab on her face all weekend. Poor kid!

Annika & Poppy

The view from the cottage

Nannie & one of the twins

Zoe collected lots of sticks for the fire

Annika & Daddy

And then she slept for the rest of the walk

Annika was mesmerized every time Uncle Jay played the mandolin!

Blane got lots of extra 'love' this weekend...doesn't he look thrilled?

Annika LOVES Zoe!
