Colors of fall

Last weekend we had wonderful weather

so we decided to go on a drive up the west coast of Michigan

and admire the changing leaf colors

we drove through a few towns...they were really nice

 

We ended up at Grand Haven....

it was such a nice beach

we have discovered sooo many beaches and so close

we know where we are going to be hanging out next summer :)

 

Loved it!

Fall is here!

Squashes and apples are here!

perfect time for some butternut squash soup :) yummy!

 

So that is just what we did for a potluck last weekend

Cut & de-seeded the squash...

 Buttered, spiced and baked it...

Added some carrots and apples :)

 All cooked, scraped and added to the pot...

 Some blending...

 Added some cream....and voila

Halloween is going to be here soon...not sure when beggars night is in our area
(that's when the kids dress up in costumes & go from house to house collecting candy)

we are excited this year to be able to decorate our front door and entrance

so today I did some Halloween shopping, still need to get some pumpkins will get those this weekend

our theme is going to be around spiders!!!

Miki was going crazy attacking the spider so i had to put him away.

Will keep you posted!
