Before we left to winter in Florida, we were
invited to an early Thanksgiving dinner at Kris & Derek's. We gave Kris an early birthday present...a family calendar.
We also gave each family an early Christmas present.....a bark carving that Dick
had made for each of them. Here's Kris & Derek (and Kyle) with their carving!
Karen & Steve with theirs..........
And Kevin & Betty with their carving!
Also, while we were in Rochester, we gave Kristen two of my paintings and in return
she gave me a beautiful handmade afghan she made me:)
It's always sad saying 'bye' to our family each fall, but it's only for 5 1/2 months
and we'll return back home to our beautiful 1000 Islands:)(10-21-09)
Shelley and Kyle each had super Hallowen costumes
this year. Shelley went as a vampire and Kyle was a Ghostbuster. His dad worked endless hours making the backpack
etc. They both took part in the annual Halloween Parade in Cape Vincent. GOOD JOB:)
