This winter is panning out to be consistent with the predictions of the weather heads - at least so far! We're enjoying the pre-Thanksgiving snow... Hopefully it stays playable (aka - skiable and sledable) so we don't get cabin fever too soon.

Good bye Fall / Movin' on to Winter...

Autumn came on slowly with an extended Indian summer. 80 degree weather in early October and the tomatoes stayed on the vine until just before Halloween. The debate is out as to whether the fall colors were good this year, but we think they were spectacular and they just kept coming. The leaves are finally falling and we are starting fires at night, so Autumn must have finally arrived.

Highlights from early Autumn include the Okanogan County Fair and Harvest season at the home garden and at our cooperative farm the Beaver Creek Keepers where we took home over 100 lb of onions, 200 lb of tomatoes, 20 + squash, cabbages and more! I love eating all the beets mom and dad grew for me!

We have had visits from both sets of grandparents, what fun. But the biggest event this fall is that I started School! I go to the Toddler program at Little Star Montessori in Winthrop...AND I LOVE IT. I have lots of playmates there and really nice teachers. There is big jungle gym, bicycles, and big sand box. Mom built me a sandbox at home too, so I have really enjoyed the prolonged nice weather.

Last week was Halloween and we had a party. Can you guess what we were? Stay tuned for more happenings before the snow flies.
