Man, has it ever been HOT this week?!  I am so over these 90+ degree days and sooooo ready for fall!

When Daddy's away, Gramaw comes to play.

Their big brothers are playing tackle football, but the first-grade twin girls are not going to be left behind.

Fall means football, and in our case youth football.

This weekend was a honey-and-cider kinda weekend.

In his 16 short months on this earth, our youngest grandchild Daniel has already mastered the art of charm.

The best part about being a Gramaw is getting to spend wonderful quality time with the littles in my life.

See that handsome kid on the right?  That's my grandson Karter, who had his middle school sports debut last night at his first cross country meet.
