"I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion."-Henry David Thoreau
We had a super time yesterday! The weather along the coast was just magnificent. A cool ocean breeze and, of course, a warm autumn sun, made for a day of perfection! Ordinarily we celebrate Family Day on October 23rd, but in recent years, because of scheduling conflicts, we have been celebrating on the first available day after the 23rd. Hopefully next year we will be able to celebrate it on the actual day. Anyway, the day of the week doesn't matter as much as the day itself. Days on a calendar are just that... days on a calendar. :) We are taking this weekend off from gallivanting about the countryside, to stay at home and get things ready for the adoption of a new family member! We haven't got all the details worked out, but hopefully soon, there will be the pitter-patter of little cat paws on the linoleum again soon! I'll keep you posted!
Here are some sights from Family Day 2008! Enjoy!

Beautiful family day you & Alan had. I want to go somewhere pretty! Little kitten paws are maybe coming to your house? That's wonderful ! xoxo Phinney
Family Day...great! You shots are great but I must know is the witch real or fake as well as the chicken? So realistic if they aren't real. Can't wait to see picutres of you new addition.
So glad you had a perfect day. Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos. I'm so excited to hear there may be the pitter patter of little paws again in your home soon! :-)
Loved the pictures! That witch is awesome. Looks like you had a perfect family day, can't wait to see pictures of the new addition in your home. (Hugs)Indigo
Hi Wammy :)
Alas, both the chicken and the witch are both fake... but arent they just wonderful? In person, they look even more real then they seem here!

Hi Carly, thanks for inviting me to your little community of photographers! Not sure Im as good as all you lot! I tend to take pics with my mobile phone lately. They come out quite good though! Really lovely of you to invite me and I will take a sneak tomorrow to see what you are all up to. Is it this blog I visit? Love Laine xxx

There sure are lots of pumpkins! do you cook them or just use them for the Halloween's decorations?
What a neat idea -- Family Day! And it looks like you and Alan had lots of fun. I'm excited about the idea of the pitter-patter of cat paws at your house -- I will definitely stay tuned!
HUGS!
Oh Carly..wonderful news ..can't wait to see the photos! The pitter patter of feet is a good thing:)
I would be excited about the pitter patter of little feet as well.
Great group of pictures...I was wondering if the witch was real too! It sounds like a great day and time well spent.
