The Lewis Edition: Our Fall

In October Russell played a concert in Arkansas

and we got to stay with our friends, the Harbours!

I think the highlight for all of us was jamming together!

We knew a lot of the same tunes, which made it SO fun!!!

"I Saw the Light"

We also did some singing around the piano, went

to church together, and enjoyed some very yummy meals!

Thanks for the picture and video, Ronda, and thank you all

for your hospitality! We had a wonderful time!!!

Russell and I enjoyed having our friends Anna and Lydia

 spend a week with us while their parents went on a trip.

We spent several fun hours like this, visiting while working on

various sewing projects.

Basket of activities to do while the girls were with us.

Lydia's finished project!

Anna crocheted this hat for Lydia.

The girls had their first piano lessons

and enjoyed practicing on our piano.

One day we packed a picnic lunch and went to the park. 

The weather was lovely!

Selfie! (Sorry, Anna!)

Dumpster find! 😂

(Actually, I saw our neighbor carry it out 

and went and retrieved it!)

It doesn't look bad at all with stuff on it! ;)

I got to go hear Mozart's "The Magic Flute,"

and thoroughly enjoyed it!

We weren't allowed to take pictures during the opera,

but I snapped this of the amazing stage set before it started.

(Russell was in the pit ;))

Gift for a friend. I had so much fun stitching these!

We were so happy to be able to celebrate the wedding

of these dear friends!

Congratulations, Andrew and Ruthie!!!

It was wonderful to spend time with my family (who came down

for the wedding), assist with the rehearsal dinner, and get to see

so many friends!

Mel did my hair. :)

We took a 10-day trip to Tennessee over Thanksgiving!

The view from what used to be my bedroom window. :)

I've always loved this view and watching the seasons change.

Fun painting project Sarah brought for the children.

Saw this at the gas station as we were leaving my hometown 

and had to snap a picture ... so "country" and cute!
