Big day, starting with the Colorado Pumpkin Patch, north of us by about 10 minutes in Monument, CO. What a hoot! All the pics are here. We closed the day all huddled in the theater room with loads of popcorn and candy to watch The Addams Family 2, Vacation.

That's Entertainment
Following Tri-M Honor Society's first "Open Mic" show (and a very busy week), the fam had a movie night at home! Addams Family II.
Tracy: "Fina was amazing at her Tri-M Honor Society’s first open mic night! Not a dry eye after she made an opening speech about how each person in the room helped carry each other through the last crazy year!! Loved seeing her and all her friends performing!"
I had Good & Plenty and Three Musketeers! |

Library Cookbooks
Lexi's gotten into checking out cookbooks from the school library. So... She and Nana have to make some of the recipes. Pictured here is a smoothie with chocolate and sprinkle decoration. Below is a fruit sculpture. Also below is the Christmas gift a foster kid picked out. I don't think so... Well, maybe.

Pismo and Nipomo
Vickie, Nana, and Papa left Yosemite on September 25th for some time at the beach in Pismo. We did all kinds of hiking around with the Foster grands, enjoyed Trevor hosting us Daou Winery, Old West Cinnamon Rolls, etc. Vicki and Lynn left for home on the 30th while Jamie stayed over to attend some of the activities at the Central Coast Railroad Festival, a county-wide event he chaired this year (and in 2019).
