November is here. The weather has turned cold and wet. We don't really get fall colors here in CA. But, the rainy season starts....which is greatly appreciated when one has to pay for the water to keep a nursery green. Just as the seasons change...so did the kids rooms. All of a sudden, today of all days, they decided to move furniture. So some fall cleaning was done as well. This is a good thing, but always causes my asthma to kick in ... I must suffer so others can clean.. It is also far easier than moving from one house to another as has been done many times in my life.
Rachel and Jared are officially engaged. We are excited for both of them. Can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for them as they start a life together. Will miss Rachel when she goes to Guatemala to visit Jared's folks for Christmas. As we told Jared....there is a "sold as is" and a "no return" policy. He said he had passed that point a long time ago. Really, I am pretty proud of Larry....he had all sorts of plans for when Jared called but kept them all to himself. Their stories of the actual engagement are absolutely great to read. May their life be filled with many more events like that.
Chudley went gopher hunting today. She dug a trench in the front yard but like all hunters in this family came home empty pawed. I on the other hand, demolished a small snake the other day. I know they are good and eat rodents but my heart and hand say KILL KILL and guess which wins every time.
It is late and time for bed. We are out of Breyers cc mint ice cream and Larry is threatening divorce. Guess I will be nice and go get him some tomorrow. The cravings...and he isn't pregnant.
