It's Autumn!!

Yes - it's officially Autumn!!  My favorite season is here at last!!  Cuddly warm sweaters, visits to the orchard and farm stands, baking apple pies, crisp cool mornings and chilly evenings wrapped up in a quilt and David's arms.  I know it means the days are getting shorter and there is less daylight, but this is still my favorite time of year.  It means Thanksgiving - my favorite holiday, and the birthdays of both of my children and the leaves changing and a foliage trip or two and taking pictures of pretty things and no more humidity!!

Wish I was outside now.

My daughter, the serial killer

I'm pleased as punch, proud as a peacock and ready to bust my buttons!  Sarah has officially been named the lead in the Autumn drama for her high school.  They are doing "The Bad Seed" and she is playing the lead role of Rhoda, the pint-sized serial killer.

I think she will be VERY good in this.  She has that "I'm so innocent" thing going on with the evil heart.  Not that Sarah is evil in any way - but she can act it, of that I have no doubt.

I'm SO glad she finally got a major part!  After years of paying her dues in various plays and musicals she FINALLY got a lead! And not just any lead, THE lead!  The whole play rests on her.  

She had to sweat it out this weekend.  She heard from a few people that she did get the part but then someone else told her that the official list had not gone up, so she was making herself (and by extension, me) crazy since Friday.

So far she's having a good senior year.
