October finish for ALYoF

October has been a busy month...

we travelled to Canada twice to visit family...

took a mini five day vacation to Stanwood Michigan.

We stayed at the Inn at St. Ives...it was beautiful...clean and quiet.

We loved it and will go back again.

The weather was great, 

the trees were beautiful reds, oranges and yellows

This was the view from our living room window.

We went to Oxford Michigan

and watched our grandson play in a lacrosse tournament.

They were the champions for the U11 teams.

Next weekend the team travels to Philadelphia

playing their last tournament this year.

We will not be going to Philadelphia, but we are thinking of heading

to Canada to stay with the grandgirls.

Looking forward to going to a lot more dance competitions

and lacrosse games when we move back to Canada.

It is just not happening fast enough. 

On our way home from the tournament 

we visited a quilting friend who moved from Canton MI 

to Midland TX about 8 or 9 years ago, then to Little Rock AK and

now she has moved back to Michigan.  

It was so nice to see Sharie again...when she was in Canton

we did manage to get in a little of trouble at

the quilting shops.

My October goal for ALYoF was to 

complete another Annie doll and

give hair to the other two bodies....yes...done with a day to spare.

I just noticed, the doll on the right 

has her arms pointing backwards....dang!!!

 I hope everyone had a great October.
