  Every year in the fall Medina County does the Fall Foliage Tour. We used to go every year and then it was either a busy weekend or bad weather that kept us from going. Today couldn't have been better weather for a day touring Medina and the stops on the tour.
We began at Buckeye Woods (a favorite place of the kids and me to walk the dog or go on a bike ride) Chelsea tried out the stilts and...

We had a good time at the reunion and it was so nice to see everyone. Although there were a lot of people I still didn't know. It's funny how people look at you and remember you by your maiden name and yet you almost forgot about that person because for the past 23 years I'm known as Mrs. and Mom. Even Zach questioned my name tag of why it said both names on it.
Seeing everyone was fun and flattering...

I still want to try more of these - I even got some brown glitter. I just haven't gotten back to them yet...

How is it possible that I have been out of school for 25 years?
Tonight Joel and I along with Lisa and Terry and all the other 1982 graduates are going to our high school reunion. Lisa and I both moved to North Royalton in our freshman year. She came from Parma and I came from Middleburg Heights. We knew each other because she was supposed to beat me up since I was dating the same boy her girlfriend...

The two will always go together and prove to be a fun source of entertainment as it did last night when Brenda, Stacey, Kim, my mom and I went to Main Street Cafe
Every Wednesday they have wine tasting.  You get 4 small wine glasses (that are absolutely adorable)then you pick from 6 pages of wines.  We decided to each pick 4 different wines and then take a sip and pass them around the table,...

You know I never really was a big Martha Stewart fan. I don't dislike her, I just never really watched her much. Now my sister - I think she's her clone, especially around the holidays! But after reading several posts about the glittered pumpkins I just had to try them.
During the day I picked up all the supplies I needed (although I ended up going to 3 craft stores before finding the glitter!),...

Cleveland advances to ALCS following 6-4 victory

It was an awesome and intense game to watch.  In fact I had almost fallen asleep but when the Yankees hit that home run I was jolted awake!  I knew we still had another game on Wednesday if they did lose, but I just didn't want to go there, as I'm sure many of the fans would agree.
It was fun watching the guys celebrate together! 

I think this Frankenstein made by my girlfriend Barb is one of my favorite Halloween decorations.  Every year I can't wait to add him to our front garden bed - it has become his home each fall since Barb made him many years ago.  She has since moved to Florida and I hope one day she will rekindle her woodworking projects because they were always the best!


Joel went and got all my cornstalks...
