October Catch Up

Its Autumn on Auburn Avenue! We love the leaves (except of course we have to buy a rake!)

the video does not do the colors justice- you should visit! we have a great guestroom!
Family Pumpkin Picking


We have been to California to see the Vicks, Jason, the Wongs, the Chabuls, Mittras, Ray-Yorros, Ben, the Abrams, Alissa and Zachary and the Flowers, and eat San Francisco delights. Then we went to Louisianna to say goodbye to Grandma Frances Mann and to spend time with The Mann clan down south. All of this since my last post. Also, Madeline's cousin Dimitri turned 4 and she has learned about the little girl obsession with princesses and all things frilly thanks to our good friends Rachael and Elianna.
The leaves have begun changing in our neighborhood and Uncle Deedge came to
visit and carved pumpkins! Then Don and I took her to the ultimate pumpkin
farm this afternoon. Here are a few of the pics I have accumulated over the past 3 weeks.
I hope to get more, and vids up too.
(aunt Julie- send me your pics!) ;)
