Yes!

I am so proud of myself! I finally figured out how to add the time slots in our office practice software. The schedule ends on 12/31/2010 and our programmer has passed away. There are few people to be found that write programs in Microsoft Access in Reno. I contacted the community college and found an instructor of Access. Together we got the basics but I figured out the last straw. The schedule runs by 15 minute time slots so it will take a while to get each day entered but at least we don't have to buy a whole new program!

Dashing Through The Snow

Trick or Treat

Fall is in the air

I used the faux chipboard technique by cutting the title five times and layering them onto one another.

Wellwood Orchards

While in New Hampshire Mary took me over to Vermont to pick apples.

Tractor

The boys seemed to like this tractor. Aiden really was trying to figure out how to make it work!

Ferrari Farms Pumpkin Patch

We took the kids for the second year in a row to Ferrari Farms to pick out pumpkins. They seem to have the best selection!

Hitchin' A Ride

The kids at the local pumpkin patch riding in the wagon.

Making Ghost Krispy Treats

Aiden loves to help Erin in the kitchen so one Friday afternoon she brought the stuff to make rick krispy treats in the shape of ghosts.

Fall Foliage in New Hampshire

The foliage was absolutely beautiful in New Hampshire this year. I only had one window of opportunity though since is rained every day but one while I was there.

Carving Pumpkins

Had fun carving the pumpkins that we picked up from the pumpkin patches.

Ben's Halloween Party

Ryan and Rachel had a party for Ben for Halloween. The kids really had fun with the pinata and playing pin the nose on the pumpkin.

Apple Hill Pumpkin Patch

Erin, Aiden, Katelynn, Jim and I headed over to Apple Hill for the day. The ride was not fun but it sure was pretty over there. We went too late in the season as most of the pumpkins had been picked over.

Ceative streak, YES!

I have been on a roll (for me anyway). Several layouts are on my table awaiting either a photo or scan so that they can be put up here on the ol' blog. Stay tuned . . .

Do opposites really attract?

I have been reading blogs this afternoon and came across a blog post entitled "so I married a boiled sweet.....". She talks about her husband's lack of enthusiasm for the holidays and her Christmasaholic ways. They are obviously very opposite, much like Jim, or "Jolly" as his friends so affectionately call him, and little ol' me. When we first married we went out and cut a tree down and he grumpily put it the stand muttering the whole time. When we bought the house we live in now we decided on Berber carpet that was a lovely shade of white (what the heck were we thinking?) Jim decided no more pitch. Lovingly he sent me with credit card in hand to Display Design for the dreaded fake tree, but alas no more pitch on the carpet. Each year he dutifully gets the tree down and allows me to put it up all by myself, isn't that so nice of him?

This year brings a new beginning for us, three little grandbabies to fill the house on Christmas Day! I bet he will turn into a Christmasaholic too! The keys on the keyboard will be worn out from typing in www(dot)amazon(dot)com and then "toys" in the search bar!

So, maybe opposites do really attract and eventually become one,
