Veggies in Monterey
Once again I am in Monterey, CA and it is as gorgeous as ever. They weather is fabulous and it is such a nice place. Yesterday I went driving around...I saw something that made me very sad...there were fields and fields of veggies and tons of migrant workers in the fields picking whatever it was that was growing. I think they were cabbage or lettuce fields. As I watched the people in those fields I though how thankful I am that there are people willing to do that job. I also thought how I don't know anyone who would do that job...glad there are people out their willing to do the jobs that need to get done, but aren't very glamorous!

Vacation...I think!
I spent the last week with Ros and family. It started a little rough, but we ended up having a good time. Ros picked me up at the airport last Monday. On the way home Stephen called to say that Kate was throwing-up at school. Before we could get to the school to pick Kate up, Clair threw-up in the back seat. Once we got everyone home, cleaned-up, and resting, Stephen called from upstairs to tell Ros that Bowen had woken-up, but he had also thrown-up in his crib. Needless to say, Ros got it on Tuesday and I had it on Wednesday. Luckily by the time mom and dad got there the sickness was pretty much done. I have pictures from Clair's party on Saturday, but I have to get them off my camera. These pictures were taken on my blackberry, so they aren't the best quality. Bowen is a doll...and boy does he love to eat. A boy after my own heart! Thanks Ros for letting me come and stay!

Halloween Lunch
Last Saturday Brooklyn came over to my house for a Halloween lunch. We had a great time. We had Cheesy Cresent Roll Ghosts, Cinnamon Monster Head and carmel apples, Mummy Dogs, and black cat cakes. It was lots of fun. We made a witch's mask, a pumpkin container, and then we turned my pumpkin into a bat. We had such a grand time. There was however something missing, or should I say someones missing...we wished that Kate and Clair could have been there and that Bowen could have been playing at Joel's with Jack. That would have made this day 1000 times better. Maybe next year.
