4th Annual Adoption Walk With Me...






November is National Adoption Month and we celebrated it with our family, friends and community by organizing the 4th Annual Adoption Walk With Me... It was a huge success! We had food, fun for kids (candy toss and slc fire trucks!)and prizes galore! 'Orange' you glad for adoption?! I know I am! I am so thankful for all those that helped with the event...

Leaves are falling all around...








Leaves are falling all around,
on the rooftops on the ground.
Leaves are falling on my noes,
on my head and hands and toes...

Fall is definately here now... see some of our autumn fun from hallowe'en to veterans day...

In Flanders Fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

John McCrae (1872-1918)
