To be overcome by the fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat.

This morning was so crisp and clear I had to step out on the deck and capture some of my wife's hanging baskets.

The rules of soccer are very simple, basically it is this: if it moves, kick it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does.

It's so great to watch young folks

 play and learn.

So cute !!

I fell in love with this cute 

little Dirty Faced Drama Queen.

who was playing in the bleachers at our 

last soccer game,

The whole world is her oyster...

Fall is soooo close

Our Eldest Son grew him some corn for the second year in a row, and they really came out good.

A lot better then last year and I'm sure not as well as next year.

However, this year we all had a ball with the harvest.

His handsome little patch

nice big juicy ears...

...all his plants in a nice row.

Three of our lovely Grandbabies,

Naomi, Janae, and Zach

And Grandpa's Harvest picture.

The total history of almost anyone would shock almost everyone.

One of the things I really enjoy is taking

candid photos of people in the crowd.

I took the opportunity to do just that 

at the last soccer game.

Today we had to privilege and fun of  watching

a dear friends of our's Son start

and held his own there too.

he played his little heart out.

and I bet he takes a good nap when he gets home.
