We'd better do some writing here or we'll be thrown out of blog-world!! I hope that it becomes more comfortable to write about our normal day-to-day little ho-hum life here...
We've been doing our fall chores-- putting the summer stuff away and getting ready for the fall & winter. Grpa Dave is finishing up some projects. He made a little deck/big porch for the people across the street and now is doing a couple of things at my mother's house which is right next to our house.
He fixed my old playhouse. My dad built it when I was about 4. It was beautiful back then-- I had linoleum floors, windows that opened, a table with chairs and my desk. As I got older my sisters took it over and later it became a shed and the critters moved in. So David has fixed the door and the floor. My brother's 2 boys were here and got a kick out of the house too. I have a short video of the 2yr old Ryley playing in it but its on its side. Didn't know you couldn't rotate videos :( I told Grpa Dave that he would have to move over to the playhouse if he was bad but I think he thought that would be kinda fun.
Afterwards, I went with my sister and my nieces to look for their homecoming dresses and Grpa went off for a walk. He went to the beach and got to see one last Monarch butterfly. Every year these butterflies migrate to Mexico for the winter then come back in the spring. Last year he saw lots of them over three days. This year he only the saw the one. It flew along the beach to him and landed on his hand then flew away.
