Wishbone

Last Thursday we had a turkey dinner and since then Paul has been drying out the wishbone.  Tonight he and Emmeline made wishes and broke it.  Emmeline won the break and when I asked what she wished for she said, "I wished for more turkey!"  Only two and a half more weeks, Emmy Lou, and your wish is granted!

Make a wish and pull!

"I win!"

Fast Fading Fall

This morning Emmeline and I took a walk to Cool Springs Reservoir which is, as you know, one of our favorite places to walk.  It was a gorgeous day, 60s and sunny.  We are trying to enjoy as much of the last vestiges of fall as possible as the colorful leaves are almost gone and trees are halfway bare:

It was so bright out that we had to bust

out Emmeline's shades.

Squinty!

Yay!  Leaves!

She loved the sound that the leaves made as she

walked back and forth through them.
