So many beautiful celebrations! What are you going to do for Hollys birthday? I’m sure the fabulous baking team will think of something delicious!

I had an amazing time on Sunday. I had a call from a neighbor asking me to help her find a new dog or puppy. (She had to put her dog Max to sleep this month. He was 12 years old and very sick.) I popped on Facebook and saw a woman that wanted to find a home for her 5 month old Dachshund. I responded immediately. Since I was first to respond, I was the one who could come first to look at little Macy. A friend of mine drove with me to check it out. We thought she was beautiful. When we brought her home, my neighbor fell in love with her. It was such a happy unexpected day! Now Macy and Kathy have each other:). My heart is so full of joy for both of them. It was one of my best days ever! I just had to share this little love story:).

Halloween town looks SO good!! Love to everyone:)

Hi Chris and Holly. My goodness what a harvest of veggies you had. I want one of those fresh tomatoes for a BLT sandwich. Your garden has sure produced this year.

So happy you learned how to can pears. I always peel mine before so can them. But your jars that you canned look really good. You will have to let me know how they taste when you open a jar. Glad you have more to can.

Your Halloween Town is starting to take shape. Can't wait to see what you do with it this year.

Have a great day and enjoy your treats today.

Hugs
John and Debbie
