Any time now, Fall

We had considered going to get pumpkins this weekend, but by the time Saturday afternoon got here, it was 85 degrees and hot in the sun. I couldn't bring myself to traipse out into the middle of the field sweating to get pumpkins. Instead, we went up into the mountains where it was a few degrees cooler and got some more apples. The trees were pretty much picked out, but they were still selling some. We'd heard the trees were pretty bare, so we expected it to be fairly quiet. Not so much. Still a zoo. I had been thinking we'd get there and get some doughnuts for the girls for a snack, but the line was halfway across the parking lot. Seriously?

We just let the girls run around outside and play for a bit. Their favorite parts? "Cleaning" up the floors of the little houses by picking up dirt and straw and throwing them out the window. Oh, and opening and closing the door of the little house. And opening and closing. And opening and closing.

Sweet Becca again

By the time we got back in the car, the girls were hungry and cranky. It was a LONG drive back into town with Julie and Becca taking turns screaming. We went out for Mexican, and I swear that Becca ate almost a whole burrito herself. She was STARVING. Emma again was primarily interested in the rice. And dipping chips, sucking the dip off, and dipping again.

My other project this weekend has been recaulking the shower in our master bathroom. It's been bothering me for a long time. When Greg and I started our list of all the stuff that needs to be done around here, I offered to do the recaulking this fall, as Greg is in charge of the roof replacement. But I have come to realize that recaulking is not something I would make my worst enemy do.

More soon. Crazy around here at the moment.
