October is in full swing!

Wow…a busy weekend coming up for the Wilson’s! We are volunteering tomorrow morning at our church’s pumpkin patch. The whole family! :-) Al is taking Madeline to the Walking with Dinosaurs show at the American Airlines center in the afternoon. Meanwhile, my sis-in-law, mother-in-law, Marcella and I  are going to be making and canning  yummy homemade applesauce! I think we have a whole bushel of apples! Woohoo!! I haven’t made any since we were in PA.  Sunday night is a fall festival and trunk or treating at church. Busy, busy….but that is just this time of year, I guess! The weather is delightful…chilly and autumn-y! :-)

Have a great weekend y’all! I love this poem and thought you might, too! We have some trees changing colors and Madeline and I are enjoying picking up different colors of leaves on our walks home from school.

 

October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came -
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band.
