Be sure to keep the lanterns lit!Didn’t October fly by? I would like a repeat- it was a great month. I got down to Pleasanton to visit with dear friends Sandra and Monica. Had a great time at their antique fair, attended a gem fair, ate monkey brains and stopped in at my favorite store in the whole world, American Harvest.

Mr. Max turned 14! I told him yesterday that he really needs to stop growing because soon he will be bigger than the house and that will just be awkward!

I had my birthday too! Good heavens- 47! I wished for at least 47 more. Eric said I ruined my chances by telling, but I don’t think so. I’m too excited to see what’s around the next corner!I’ve been stitching up a storm, but no photos yet. The sun comes out Monday through Friday and hides on the weekend when I have time to take some shots! Isn’t that always the way?

Anyway, hope you all have a frightfully good (and safe) Halloween tonight!
