Yes, we finally have joined!

I can't believe we are joining the Twenty-first Century!

After reading several blogs and enjoying them very much, I've decided that I too will share my life, my children's life and a little of Dan in there for good measure, with all who might care to know.

Actually, this will probably be a lot of fun and I hear it can be quite addicting too. Being our first blog however, I don't know where to begin. I suppose I could start with our totally terrific kids. They are back in school and our home is much more calm now that summer is over. They are so busy with school and homework that they seldom have time for fun. But I guess that is all part of the plan. Get that school work done and there will be plenty of time later for games. Plus, when they do get their homework done and chores finished an hour of playtime is relished as much as two hours.

I really do love autumn. The trees are turning colors and the mountians are like a beautiful piece quilt of color. As long as the weather stays above 60 I am happy. Today, I spent this afternoon pulling out my garden. I got a bit of a late start and still had many green tomatoes on the vine, but it froze last night and we may get snow tommorrow, so I think my gardening season is over.
