Well, it worked. My previous post whined about how hot and un-fall-like our weather still was. We decided to go ahead and do fall things anyway with the hope that it would give our season a kick in the pants. I am happy to report that we have cooled off significantly. So much so that today I pulled out winter clothes (I'm wearing a sweater!), down comforters and a space heater. I stacked our logs closer to the house and even built a fire. A bit extreme perhaps, but I am so excited about fall and my wimpy California body thinks it's freezing when it's 60 degrees.

Dave has been gone all weekend at a youth pastors' conference in Sacramento. He's loving it and seeing some big name Christian musicians and speakers. With his absence, today/tonight we spent a lot of time in our jammies. We had family movie night again and popped popcorn and snuggled up in the comforter and couch pillows watching another Scholastic movie (
The Wheels on the Bus-- which
explains the "shh, shh, shh" the kids are doing in the following picture).

The nice cool weather and the excuse to stay inside cuddled up all day, I'm sighing a happy sigh right now...

That's great to see Delia getting into the movie like that. (And I'm a little jealous about your awesome popcorn maker!)
We're living a similar reality:-) With the cooling weather we enjoyed popcorn and movie night this weekend too. I also began the hunt for winter clothes that FIT! How fast these kiddos grow. We also enjoyed your Tomato-Basil Bisque recipe that you have on your blog. It was a BIG HIT with some homemade bread.
We are loving this weather & freezing our bones off every morning when it's 62 degrees in our house. Go figure! Sounds like fun with the girlies at the VM house...
