Dress of the week September 12th!
Good morning Ladies and welcome to my first post of September! I didnt post last weekend . The weather has definitely cooled off since even before labor day. It actually produced a light frost Thursday morning . It seems way to early but that is Minnesota!
Last weekend was pretty quiet for Labor day weekend , our driveway which is blacktop has been dropping down below the concrete garage floor for a few years had been creating a bump as you drive in of about 2 inches. So the husband started cutting it out 3 feet out on Saturday the 5th with help by all of us ! it went really well . Then yesterday new concrete was poured so it is level now, We cant drive on it for 7 days though! A small sacrafice !
On Sunday we had friends over and did a bonfire. It was a fun night of laughter and memories. On Monday we went to a local park for a nature walk , we took our dog along, it was nice to get out and stretch.
The kids started distant learning on Tuesday , it went really well ! They also did it on Wednesday, then Thursday Friday it was in class learning. Their class is divided into two groups Cohort 1 Goes to school 2 days then cohort 2 for the following 2 days. the class sizes are small as a result when they are in school which is an advantage for the teacher . When at home they have school i pads to work with to get assignments done. It works for now, I hope they can get back full time safely in the new year.
Our older boys had their first games in flag football this week! It was nice seeing them in the team setting and both did really well.
This weekend is starting out wet so we will see what we get up to!

Hi Terri! It’s always a good feeling to get home improvements done. Bonfires are great at this time of year as evenings get cooler. Sharing it with friends makes happy memories! Glad you’re enjoying nature together and your children’s education is going well. 🙂
Of course, the dress is lovely!
Have a thankful Thursday!

Hi, Terri. Last week was horribly dreary and rainy for us too–6 straight days! ugh! I hope this week is better for you. I cannot believe you’ve had a frost already! It seems way, way, way too early for that!
It sounds like your kids’ school has their system for this semester down pat. It’s good that the kids can have more space yet still stay connected to their peers and teachers. I hope it keeps working out.
We recently had a cement slab ‘lifted’. It was quite pricey–you saved a lot of money by doing it yourselves.
Getting out in nature is the best, isn’t it? Do you have a lot of forest preserves by you? We have so many by us. I love that. Your bonfire sounds like fun. I haven’t been to one of those since my college days—long, long ago.
Take care, Terri. ❤

Hi Cindy, dreary days are the worst! This past week has been really nice and fall like. we had frost yesterday morning , but it warmed up nicely after. Right now its 57 and sunny. The kids school semester is going well, as well as can be expected anyway! They all have school ipads to work with, technology, right? We did save money pouring it ourselves n and getting my Father-in – law to help. The concrete and reinforcing bars came to $500. There is a huge preserve by me , whitetail woods, it is so nice to get away from it all ! Can you have backyard fires in your area? Have a great weekend Cindy, Terri xo.

Hi, Terri. Good to hear you have places to go to experience nature. They really are mood boosters. I woke this morning thinking that instead of my walk in the neighborhood I should get out to one of our forest preserves nearby. I need a little boost. Technology is great; I cannot imagine where our kids would be if they didn’t have it right now. We have a fire pit where we burn yard waste. We have yet to make an event out of it though. Not sure why that is–on these cool nights it would be nice to enjoy an outdoor fire. We also have a little outdoor fireplace–need to use that more. Wishing you a beautiful week! It’s the last full week of September–already! ❤
