Pausing for Autumn moments

apple goodness :: my grandmother taught me to carve a "M" in pies for the family name.
 I decided to put one for each of my family members. 

We found this play stove for seven dollars at our thrift store. 

"children's play stove"

My wonderful husband putting a coat of protection on my finished floors.
 I have already put one coat of "woven basket" and one layer of lazure. 

silliness abounds in this fellow
he is sporting his sweater from last holiday season

The first snowman of the season.
Three snowfalls already is a bit unusual for us but the kids love it.
I will once our woodstove is ready on Monday
