Fall colours, sheep and goats

Fall has always been my favorite season.  I love everything about it:  the colours, the smells, the decorations and the fun activities that can be enjoyed with our loved ones.  This morning, we took Cooper to Sandhill Nursery to take in their Fall Festival and their Christmas Open House.  What more can you ask for:   my favorite Fall and Christmas decorations, all under one roof.  In addition, they had a zoo with sheep and goats, and Cooper got to sniff a sheep.  It was a nice way to spend a beautiful and warm Sunday morning.

Yesterday, we went for a boat ride, our last of the season.  With everything going on with Russell's Mom, we will make arrangements to have the boat put away for the winter.  We did enjoy our cruise yesterday and Russell took many pictures of the Fall colours.

Another week has come and gone.  We spent a good part of it in Montreal, visiting Russell's Mom. We had a good visit and had some good chats and laughs.  She is more tired now and weaker.  We have noticed a change in her since the last time we saw her.  Her spirits are good though.  We will be returning to Montreal in a week's time.

Cooper is doing well and had a great time at Talemaker Camp while we were away. We do miss our little guy when we are away but are grateful for the updates that Darlah posts on her blog.  We get to follow his antics with his other Havanese friends.  We do know that he likes playing with the gals.  We also know that he pulverized a duck toy while at Darlah's place.  The joys of being a dog......

This coming week will be a bit busy.  We have a few things to do around the house.  I want to finish mulching and start cutting back the plants.  We will have to cut the grass once more.  We have a little bit of Fall cleaning to do in the house and I want to get the winter gear organized.  Cooper will be going to doggie daycare on Thursday and play with Brenna.  It's hard to believe that September is done.

I hope you are enjoying the beautiful Fall weather that we are having.  We have a nice fire going right now and it smells so good, both inside and outside.  I wish you all a good week.  Hope you like the pictures.

More Fall splendour....

Anne and Cooper relax and enjoy the scenery aboard 'the Coop'.
