My mom is in town. We had a few people over tonight for burgers, mom, Mike, Jen, and Rachel (our niece) tonight, and had a wonderful time. I can't help but wonder what it'll be like when we have our own kids...
My mom is so great. She listens with an open mind and for the most part only offers advice when asked. She did a great job raising three boys and now she's getting to enjoy her grandkids (and "granddogs", as she likes to say, Hershey and Gus). With the passing of her parents this year, she'd been through a lot, and I'm glad she is taking some time away from the Cape for herself.
The yard got finished this morning, and then it started to snow late tonight. I can hardly believe that it's only the middle of October and it's already snowing. With luck, we will not have another year where we get 26 inches of snow on Halloween.
Speaking of that, next weekend is the Halloween party at Andy and Christine Schwarz's house. I've got no idea what I'll dress up as, but I'd better think fast! Maybe I can get the fabric and make a true Roman Senator's Toga... Hmmmmm.
