"Where did fall Go"

These past two weeks have been so crazy.... last week it was still pretty warm feeling but everyone knew fall was here. This week it started raining while I was at work. I so badly wanted to go outside and be in the rain... I got my wish! As soon as I got off work I went outside and began walking home just like every other day... but this day was different.. it was wet... and very cold.... something in side me told me the weather was going to be changing soon. It continued to rain that day and part of the next day when about lunch time I happened to look outside and see little white balls of frozen water falling to the ground. I am from Colville Washington you can try to imagine how shocking this was too me.... for in Washington we usually don't get snow until thanksgiving and sometimes not until December!

Today I had my nieces and nephews that live here over for a slumber party. Although it was cold we were able to have a fun time and keep warm:) We watched movies and ate popcorn & treats.... and of course stayed up till mid-night.... crazy if i may say so myself:) In the morning with the help of my sister Codi... I made pancakes,sausage, eggs and we had orange juice! We played a "DOG" a game my older made up when I was younger. It's basically like hide and seek except that you have to get to a different destination with out the dog getting you:) they really had a lot of fun with this game.. just like I thought they would! It continued to be cold that day so we all tried to keep bundled up.

Although you can still see the tree's changing colors this is like no fall I remember for it feels like November too me Burr! It has stopped raining now which is nice.. we are all hoping for some warmer days here this week as well:) sorry i have no pictures of these happenings!
