We are heading to Kansas and Colorado to celebrate the fall feasts with our grand kids.. Myles and Emily have Felicity 3 in Kansas, we'll spend Yom Kippor with them and Trent and Natali are on the Western Slope of Colorado and have Kalynn4, Kinsley 3 and Gideon 2.5 months. Rourke still lives here in Saskatchewan but not married yet. anddd. We added to our family, Janney is 13 and at Trent's right now to help with the kids, Asher is 11, Elias is 9 and Ronen is 5. We're still homeschooling, still blessed with the confidence I gained from the Coffee Shoppe ladies wisdom all those years ago, not fretting about the details of HOW they learn, trusting that they DO learn in their own way.<br /><br /><br />I don't blog much any more, but I do still have my MoreLittleWilsons.com blog and Trent's wedding and Janney's bat Mitzvah are on there... holding the big events in life along with the little mundane things.<br /><br />Anyhow, just wanted to drop in and say hi, I think of you often, even passed through Alzeda on my way to Colorado two summers ago.Sombrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889865438520096602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-19981477180096943592017-09-19T22:37:53.661-06:002017-09-19T22:37:53.661-06:00With all the harvest to bring in and deal with, I ...With all the harvest to bring in and deal with, I am impressed that you can even think about starting an autumn journal, but I shouldn't be surprised. I do know that when she stays mostly at home an incredible amount of work and creativity can flow from a woman.<br /><br />I'm excited about your potatoes! Only one time did I grow potatoes and it was the most satisfying - and tasty - thing...GretchenJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641677400029070452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-15748178199891021712017-09-19T21:09:00.782-06:002017-09-19T21:09:00.782-06:00Great photos!

And it sounds like you will have lots of baking and canning fun, too! I love hearing about all of your livestock activities. You folks are so productive and seem to have a good time doing it.

My DIL made some yummy zucchini oven fries, dipped in egg and then breadcrumbs. Delicious. Beautiful photos btw!

So good for us and you're growing your own! Well done, Jody!<br />Oh, you are so right! I must put a bunch of rocks in the bird bath so they can perch.

They love my big lantana bush (and this time next year, I'll have many more of those full grown), plus they and the bees really loved my big patch of basil. They were all over it. Just a thought. For some reason, the ants and wasps loved my loofah blooms. Go figure.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-32769936821909149302017-09-15T06:40:44.547-06:002017-09-15T06:40:44.547-06:00I'm so happy you're doing the Autumn Journ...I'm so happy you're doing the Autumn Journal too! It will be fun, and I love the low-stress of each person doing whatever kind of journal entries they prefer. Flowers here? I should know. Hmm. Our Crepe Myrtles are about done. I know there are some yellow ditch flowers down the road, and I suspect they're causing us to sneeze. My lantana is still blooming a little. I'm more excited about the things in the garden. We've never really done a fall garden before, and I find I'm more excited about potatoes and onions and green beans than I was in the early summer :)<br /><br />I hope any fires stay far away from you. I wish they'd stay far away from everyone :( Such weather we've been having! M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.com
