The last day of Indian Summer

2 kinds of morning glories. I prefer the big blue ones but I have a lot more of the dark purple

cosmos are thriving in front. In back, they were choked to death by morning glories

The museum where I got my appraisal

We have had almost 2 weeks of warm, sunny weather but the rains come in tomorrow. I've been going to Josh's soccer games. The temperature quickly drops as he plays and the game ends when the ref can no longer see. Beautiful sunsets though, I should have taken my camera.

We had our family dinner Sunday at his house. This is the joy in my life with us all admiring Maya's antics. I can't wait for Josh and Julia to have a family. Meanwhile grandbaby number 4 is now avocado sized. In two weeks, they get a sneak preview and perhaps we will know if it's a girl.

Carpe Mañana

I love mixed metaphors. I had a co-worker who routinely said

I hate people looking over my shoulder with a fine toothed comb
 and
It always ceases to amaze me.....


Carpe Mañana isn't technically a metaphor but a mix of two concepts and languages: Seize the day! and At some other time, maybe tomorrow but probably later if at all.

So I will seize the day at some point, I just don't know when.

It appears we have one more day of Indian Summer then fall will begin. I am trying to enjoy it as much as possible before we descend into bleakness.

More....I lied

Always on the phone even up to the moment she was to walk down the aisle

Head table before guests came. Official color: wisteria. Naomi wanted lots of shiny bling so tables were covered in crystals

One of the many bouquets my  friend made

The final assembly

The guys

She's stuck and not too happy about it

I need to get rid of church lady in the background

In general, I was pleased with the photographer but I have no nice shots of the couple together in her wedding dress, just some in her dancing dress

One of three cakes. This was the strawberry mousseline though I prefered the lemon
