Gettysburg

Trying to find outdoor activities to do, we took advantage of a beautiful November day and did the audio tour of Gettysburg. 


  


   

   




   

 

Fall photo shoot

 Since we have a crazy addition we had to keep a location of minimal distraction.  Thankful for a great friend with great talent coming to our back yard for a photo shoot.   The beautiful dress Aliyah is wearing was found while cleaning out my mom's closet.  I've worn several of her dresses that she kept from her youth, but unfortunately had missed out on this one!   I'm sure my grandmother made it for a HS dance and Aliyah looks just beautiful wearing it:).

Fall Randomness

In other less important Fall news....

We've had a lot of bonfires, some include sparklers!




Since restaurants aren't nearly worth the risk we had anniversary take out:)


Max always enjoys his visits with Kris and Wendy's chickens


I finally no longer have white floors in my entrance hallway!


This is how Aliyah handles show week and virtual Fridays


We were able to take a day trip to the cemetery and finally see the plaque.  They went out of their way to get the Phillies logo, my mom would love this:)


We had our first 2 day shut down, luckily it didn't last long and she was a trooper but not without some desk setting up!


Into November and still enjoying sunny temps in the 70's.  It was a welcome feeling after a cooler week of no sunshine!


A November walk in shorts while listening to Christmas music!  2020 is a "do whatever it takes to bring you joy" kind of year as Aliyah noted!


Way back before the world shut down Aliyah had entered a drawing into the Hershey Healthy Youth Award program and we had heard she received an honorable mention.  We had no idea all this was coming.  It was so nice of them to make this so special!
