Can't believe it has been so long since I have gotten on the blog and wrote, but it just seems I don't take the time to get things down in writing.
The weather here in the Midwest has just been beautiful. It has been dry and sunny for the last week or so. It is in the 70s in the day and gets down to around mid-50s at night. We can't ask for a better fall than we have had so far. We have had one hard freeze but it only lasted a night or so. Hopefully this weather will hold out for couple more months and then we will be heading South!!
Jack went out one day last week to look for some pictures of the fall leaves. Here are a few of them.
Let's see what we have been up to lately. Jack went to the dermatologist to have her check out a couple new spots on him. She thought they weren't too bad but to be on the safe side she froze them off. That is good.
On Saturday, October 25, we had our newest grandson's baptism. This was a joyous occasion for our family. Jack took some pictures which I will post below. We had a nice time and afterwards we all went out to eat. Nico did very well and didn't even cry until it was all over and that was just because he was getting hungry. 
Jack and I had dentist appointments and all went pretty good. I do have to go back and have one tooth checked to see if I might need a new crown. Sure hope I don't.
On Halloween, we went to our oldest son's (Craig) house and his family to celebrate Halloween. This has become a tradition for us. We all fix food - usually chili, soups, cornbread, and deserts and just have a good time. We have a few pictures of the kids (big and little). Here is Craig and Emma: 
Last night, we got together with our good friends (Linda, Frank, Dora & Marlin) and went out to dinner and then played games. This is always a great time and we really enjoy getting together with them. We have been doing this for many, many years so this is definitely good time to have for sure.
Hope everyone gets out to vote on Tuesday (if you haven't already done so). Jack and I did our early voting last week so we won't be one of those standing in the long lines.
Have a good week.
