Autumn, Anyone?

Well, they say it's autumn, anyway. Some leaves are indeed turning, but the bulk of them don't fall off the trees until January or so. Global warming? Naw, it's just South Texas.

The gigantic Methodist church down the street has a pumpkin patch every year, so we stopped by one day and snapped a few pictures.

This is Ella and her pal Rachel. Between the two of them they have all sorts of teeth missing. The day before halloween we had a very modest party, including "Witches Brew". Ella had never seen dry ice in action, so she thought it was pretty cool.

October means a much-anticipated visit from Grandma Kathie. Natalie thought she was VERY entertaining.
