Nicole's Birthday

We went to dinner with Brian and Nicole to celebrate her birthday. It was a hibachi style restaurant and Nicole loved it. She has a new job this year. She works at an elementary with handicapped children. It is emotionally demanding, but she likes it. Check with her to find out more about it. Happy Birthday Nicole!

Colorful Fall

We have had an absolutely beautiful and colorful fall. This barberry in the front yard has never been so red.



The cotoneaster hedge in the backyard is more colorful that it has ever been. This was on Halloween.

See the red amur maple in the Japanese garden. We are loving it. We still haven't had any snow yet this year.
