Autumn Awesomeness

Image
You would think that all the pumpkins and gourds provided by the garden would be enough, but nope. I also love to crochet them and today, for the first time, I made one with the knitting needles. The smallest one here is a little smaller than a golf ball and as cute as a button. The problem is that if the cats find them, they think I made them a toy. But who can resist making wee thingies?  The driftwood I used in this photo is from Tuktoyaktuk and I intend to make a mobile or something with some of it. I collected some rocks from up there too, so it's just to figure out how to build it. It is only seven degrees there (Tuk) at the moment, but it's only 13 here. And it's windy, making what Piglet would call "a blustery day." Kaitlynn has been at work all day, but we're taking her into Yorkton later to stay with Sophie. So we'll probably end up at DQ. Jared was busy picking new songs for his Grade 7 year.  He's bucking a little, but nothing we can...

Lloydminster/Cold Lake 2018

There is not one picture from Lloyd here. I barely touched my phone while visiting which I suppose is a good thing, but I wish I had snapped a few photos. These are in no particular order... Re-learning to knit. It's always exciting to see the boats! The Marina beach. Jared spent a lot of time on his scooter on our trip and is now paying for it with a sore foot! Ticket to Ride, Suzanne's favourite. Beantrees Ice cream at the beach. Zip-lining on the beach. Jared was the only brave one. Kaitlynn was chasing these guys all over the beach. The Wednesday Regatta Bibeau Park Huge woodpeckers! Early morning walk. Harvested some broccoli on the day we returned. And a pumpkin! I continue to work on my knitting.
