A Pumpkin for Nonno






Today after we had lunch at my Mom's we decided that we would go and pick out pumpkins for Elena and Stevie at Tara Farm in Watertown. The Farm is right across the street from the cemetery where my Dad is buried so we decided to pick out a pumpkin for him. The kids loved it. We had not been there for a while, it was really nice and peaceful to be there. The three kids put the pumpkin down and said hello to him, and then we came home and had hot chocolate and banana bread. It was a nice quiet day, I think that it was a good idea to lay low because Emma still isn't feeling quite herself so we didn't do much today, so that she will be feeling fine for Halloween.

Today we celebrated my Mom's 58 th birthday. I asked my Mom earlier in the week what she wanted for her birthday dinner and she said lobster. It was so delicious, especially because Pat took the meat out of all 10 of them before we ate. It was really great to see everyone. During the school year we don't get to see them as often as we would like. So we ate lobster, played outside and enjoyed cake. What a great Sunday!
