The fall season is rather dismal here. No vibrant colors. And hardly ANY colors. It is still mostly green, with a smattering of brown. Worst fall I've seen in decades.

Put something into the crockpot, head to church, have a Sunday afternoon drive, then home to a warm Sunday supper. See, you've got me dreaming!<br /><br />BTW, I've also been feeling the urge to start doing something about Christmas! :)Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485422535638850892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-19148306080543518262011-10-24T15:05:14.886-04:002011-10-24T15:05:14.886-04:00I hope you ahared a very happy birthday celebratio...I hope you ahared a very happy birthday celebration with your sister!

Much to anticipate. I just sent out a letter to my kids today asking who is planning to be around this year and to get the ball rolling for picking names.

We don't have any berries anywhere yet that I can see, just a lot of dead leaves.

Thanks for sharing your lovely photos, you do such a great job. I too have begun my Christmas shopping. I ordered a stocking stuffer (calendar) online over the weekend, it's a start! I'm not crafty, so I'll need your help. Once I gather the berries, will they keep through November and December, what will we use them for? There's an idea for a post, holiday berry uses.Noofyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05006035965295127899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-7201989060157325302011-10-24T12:30:09.453-04:002011-10-24T12:30:09.453-04:00Hi Vee!

How true, your words. At our fellowship yesterday morning, a brother taught along these lines. He even proposed that we likely will never understand it all, even in Heaven, for "the secret things belong to God" and He will still be sovereign and He is under no compulsion to explain it all to us. "For your ways are not My ways, and your thoughts are not My thoughts..." And, yes, He is enough! Profound truth. <br /><br />Thank you, Vee, for visiting me at Thinking About Home...in spite of the word verification business. ;-) I chose to use word verification to eliminate spam in my comments. Are you ever troubled with spam? Maybe I need to research other ways to make my blog a safe place...I do so want to make it welcome to friends!<br /><br />And thank you for your kind words about my 31-days series! (It is linked here... http://www.thenester.com/2011/09/31-days-participants.html.) It's a bit of a challenge for me, as I have never been an every-day-of-the-week type of blogger, nor do I typically go around giving unsolicited advice, but I felt drawn to this series. :-)<br /><br />* Thanks for the front door inspiration!Cheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-13624068778369625502011-10-24T09:02:27.733-04:002011-10-24T09:02:27.733-04:00Your mosaic is just beautiful, Vee.
