This morning we sent Nacho out bright and early at 8 a.m. to rake leaves in our local park. The mandatory volunteer hours we've whittled down are almost finished, and this will put us close to done before the year's end. Hurray! So how did Elisa and I spend the morning? Nice and cozy inside while Papa raked and chased leaves around in the cold. However, we did get dressed to go and meet him after his 3 hour shift was over. That way Elisa spent about 20 minutes running around the park, jumping on the scooter she hasn't seen in weeks. It was a reminder that winter is almost upon us and the days are not only brutally short but cold too. I haven't done any real holiday shopping yet, and could care less about the deals and steals of the big box stores. But I thought it might be a good day to stroll the neighborhood and after stopping in at Petunia's on Skillman Ave. we found this little hat I just couldn't resist. Who cares if she looks a bit like Paul Simon circa 1973? It's cute. And she let me put it on her for all of 5 seconds before ripping it off. So I think we're onto something. Of course, when you're nice and toasty inside you don't need a hat, right?
