Makes My Monday-Winter is on the way

Snow is in the forecast this week, so this may be the last of we see of the grass until April.

We have been really lucky this autumn. There have been years that we have had snow on Halloween and we didn't see the grass again the whole winter.

It "makes my Monday" that we have had an extra long autumn this year.

I love this picture of Luke. It is sooo hard to get a good photo of him lately because he doesn't stay still for a minute.

Kimmy was freezing in this picture.

Remnants of last year's baby birds.

This summers "bridge" is sort of wearing out---it will need a good overhaul by a 9 year old next spring.

These beautiful, "bonus", autumn days, Make My Monday.
