I am late doing this for September. The kids were here and then I
rode along with them to my Moms house so my September went by really
fast! Slow living Essentials is the link to follow if you are interested in participating, it's kind of fun to look back and organize your thoughts and memories!
Nourish – sent some of my canned stuff home with Son #2, he lives
in a house/dorm with 10 guys and he is a foody, he said all the
pickles were awesome and the sauerkraut is so good he has just been eating it out
of the jar. So satisfying for me to hear!

Prepare – Hubby stayed home and cut up all the wood from the trees
the boys helped him fell while they were here. Pretty sure they just
wanted to play with the chainsaw! (BOYS!) Good start on next years
woodpile!

| I never let them do this when they lived at home! |
Green – I'm thinking taking the bus instead of driving or flying
counts – yes?
Grow – Came home to some serious cold and the growing season is
over – for now we will go over what did well this year, what we
need more of or want to do differently next year.
Create – Started another cross stitch, and am almost done with my
idea for cold weather curtains, quilted, to try to help keep the
house warm.
Discover – Since our youngest (Son #3) and his wife found out they
are expecting my first grandchild due in May I have been pouring over
baby craft ideas – this is so much fun!

| This is the only time your hubby lets you touch him with a stick you peed on! :) |
Enjoy – Truly enjoyed spending time with all three boys together
and each separately, loved having the time to visit with my Mom, I
think I had way more fun in September than hubby! I will have to
make chocolate chip cookies here pretty soon!

Mom and I took a day trip to the closest Giant Sequoias to her house, it was foggy and eerie and beautiful!

I had a wonderful September - and knowing the kids were coming motivated Hubby and I to get a couple of things done that we had been putting off (the other bathroom - pics next time!)
Lovely photos, Kathy. I love the one with the stick in it. LOL! Those giant trees are just so magnificent, aren't they? You have lots of happy memories to look back on.
ReplyDeleteNow that you mention babies, I might do a post on my blog about some of the things I came across when my little granddaughters were babies and some of which I made for them. My original intention of starting my blog was to share what I had found with other nannas. There is so much good stuff out there, isn't there?
Yes there is and I would love to see your ideas - I enjoy your writing style so it makes it even more fun! This grandma thing is sounding more fun all the time. Now after 3 boys maybe we get a little girl? :)
