Brace yourselves this could be a long one!!! Lots and lots of little things to talk about. Wouldn't want you all to miss me!!! HEHE.

First of all I thought you might like to see a beautiful sunrise behind Jesse and Amy's house last week when I was there. I love that they have such a pretty view.

Let' see what next, Oh yea, more Lukas shots...come on cut me a break, I love the kid!!! Here he is playing

tug-of-war with Schaffer.

Who doesn't like to chew on there socks????

YUMMMMMM !!!!!!!


Now, this is the side yard on Saturday....I couldn't believe how many leaves that were on the ground. So I donned the Ipod grabbed the leaf blower and headed out to tackle the beast!!! And the driveway is in there somewhere!


And after 3 Toby Keith albums, one Bette Midler , a Metallica, and the entire soundtrack of Wicked this is what I accomplished. Yea me!!! They were some really wet heavy leaves. And if you refer back to the previous picture you can see what is looks like now 2 days later :( It is called FALL right??

This morning I went to the big city to meet some girlie friends from high school. We have reconnected lately and it is fun to reminisce. We met up at this really cute coffee shop called the Daily Brew.

Now if anyone runs into either one of these women and they try to tell you anything about me, DO NOT listen!! It will all be lies. Neither one of them knows anything about me. Thanks for the great time Mary and Sandy. Hopefully next time some of the other oldies but goodies can make it!!!

Grandpa Dave is working on childproofing the house. It is amazing how many things need it now that Lukas is mobile. We moved in well after our kids were older and we never had to think about it before. The open stairway was of big concern to us. Now brace yourselves.......Dave drilled into the balusters to put up this gate!!!!! Wait till you see the other improvements!!! To follow later. He must really love that boy!

And for those who know me........yup, that is me making a pie?!?!?!?! Dave asked and I obliged. My mom and sisters all LIKE this stuff....I must have missed out on the cooking/baking gene, cause it is not my cup of tea.

Just a pretty shot off the deck behind the house.

And for those of you from Michigan here is a picture of something you don't see very often.

Yup it's the SUN.

Try not to squint, take it in and enjoy it, it doesn't happen very often!!!!

So now you are caught up on the happenings at the Ward house, what's up in yours??
