The tree in our neighbors' front yard is always rather outspoken as to what the season is. It's bare in winter, gloriously white in spring, lusciously green in summer, and blazingly orange at the peak of autumn! Â When we see the leaves beginning to carpet the grass...
It's a quiet evening here on at Tween Creeks this All Hallows Eve but festivities are happening elsewhere. We know that Super Woman (Riley) and Bat Girl (Peyton) went Trick or Treating last night. They are old pros at this but for 2 year old Linus it's a new game....
As of this morning we are reestablishing our practice of building a fire on cool mornings and using the fireplace to heat the house. However now with this new gas stove, "building the fire" means hitting the On button on the remote! And we can also set the thermostat...

Saturday. Both girls have dance lessons but Peyton finished by 10 AM and was home by the time we arrived at the house. She, her Dad, and her grandparents have spent the last few hours playing games. Pass the Pigs. Peyton was scorekeeper! Then Dominoes. (We had to read...
Ever since the morning an Easter Bunny brought Nerf weapons to our granddaughters, a fun filled Nerf battle is one of the delights of a visit to Canton. This evening it was an interlude between a dinner of delivery pizza and a movie. Back in July we made a pinky...
