Oklahoma, where the winds come sweepin' down the plains... and the greatest of friends live!

Two weekends ago Cecelia and I were fortunate enough to have some frequent flyer miles and were able to go to Oklahoma to see some dear friends of ours... Betty and Paul. Betty and I met the second day of our freshman year of college...of all places in the cafeteria line and have been friends since. I won't say how old we are....but Betty IS 7 days older than me...and we met 34 years ago! We even joke with our husbands and tell them that we have know each other longer than we have known them! The weekend was wonderful, albeit much too short! Cecelia had her first chance to meet "Aunt Betty and Uncle Paul"...and it was love at first sight! The pictures tell the rest of the story...

Moon Cake Festival

Several weekends ago we went to a beautiful State Park in Fair Haven, New York, for a mini moon festival with other families from our local FCC( Families with Children from

China) group. It was a beautiful, warm fall day and we had so much fun! Cecelia and some friends even took a dip in Lake Ontario...well, Cecelia's was more like a fall into Lake Ontario...but she loved it! We had a potluck dinner and mooncakes for dessert that the kids had baked the previous Friday night. Yum!

Fall

A couple of weekends ago we went apple picking, pumpkin picking, and to a farm to see calves. It was a beautiful fall day here in Central New York. The kids had fun, and so did the adults!
