Back Home!

We are back home now! It's always a little sad to pack up and leave the camper. We had such a good visit with Louis Dean's son and grandson. Country life seems simpler and slower and we like that! I guess all that fresh air made me sleepy because I nodded off more than once in the truck driving back. We stopped in Hillsboro for lunch at the Black Eyed Pea which Dean recommended. He was right! Very good food AND service. As soon as we got in and unloaded I went to bed for a nap and Louis Dean took a nice long hot soak in the tub. 

I had loaded some 'stuff' from the camper in a tub to bring home so after I emptied it I decided to

DE-decorate the dining room.

I took one last pic and then got to it filling that tub up within 10 minutes!!

Think I will go room by room all week!

I have had this same table setting out since August.

Truth be told - as much as I LOVE fall - I think I am just about ready for a season change.

Changes are good and also make a perfect time to do some deep cleaning.

Since we will be spending Thanksgiving down in the country I want to have ALL the Christmas decorating done before we leave. 

I wonder if Amber will help me decorate my blog for Christmas?? 

(HINT!!!)

In honor of Veterans Day I took a picture of this old photo of Louis Dean.

He's the tall one on the right. He was handsome then and is handsome now.

We had to catch up on The Black List in order to be ready for the new episode.

Just TV and laundry is on our agenda for tonight. AND I need to sew several rows together on a denim crib quilt I need to have DONE by the baby shower on Sunday!

It's always a good thing to come HOME!
