Another new grandbaby!!!
And just when we were thinking we weren't having much fun......

October brought...

More gardening.....

And Grandma's little goblins.
November breezed in with...


Fresh greens from the garden....


And giving Thanks...
Just when we thought we'd had enough......

2009, a year filled with great blessings, too many to illustrate.
But much appreciated always.
