Freezing

It never fails...every year the change in temperature sneaks up on me!

Waiting at the school bus stop around this time of year, I'd stand there waiting, and the wind would blow the cold right through my clothes, and I'd instantly regret not dressing in warmer layers! 🥶

 

The Weekend

We made it! 🥳

Have a great weekend everyone! 😁

New Season

It was like clockwork...when a new season started up for a popular sport, we'd be even more inspired to play that game with friends in the neighborhood! 🏒😁

Pretender

I realized if I wanted a few items on my Christmas wish list, I had better be good through November and December. Unfortunately, that was a near impossible task! 😅

Fall Line Up

Fall brought us the Fall network television line-up! The networks teased us kids by putting amazing shows on TV IMMEDIATELY after school. That meant if we wanted to catch them we had to race home to be there in time for the new episodes! 😮‍💨📺

Leaves

 Jumping into a pile a leaves was always a fun activity in the fall...

...especially when SOMEONE ELSE raked the leaves into a pile! 😂🍂

The List

So, is it too early to think about Christmas? Probably not for a boy who has to start contemplating what he'd like for Christmas. 🤔🎁

By this time, Mom and Dad were already starting to ask us what we might like for Christmas. Honestly, it was tough to come up with a list sometimes.

It’s also about the time I reflected on the last year, and evaluated whether I was even GOOD enough for presents come Christmastime. If that was even remotely questionable, I knew I needed to “step up my game”… at least for the next two months! 😇
