That's why I wonder why I felt the need to cut the hair if I could just push the button and make it shorter. Silly kid.<br /><br />I guess being close to the water is what keeps your weather from being too cold in November and December. The house I grew up in was about 200 miles from the ocean, but when my Dad retired my parents moved to the Eastern Shore. So yeah, now that you mention it, the winters they experienced at the shore weren't nearly as bad. Well, do what you can to keep his little self warm :)<br /><br />KelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-89063136153737245712014-11-05T21:00:36.673-05:002014-11-05T21:00:36.673-05:00Hi!

Captures the colors anyway---on windy days the marsh is in constant subtle motion.<br /><br />I had to look Velvet up! So cool. Did her hair grow back somehow? Like extensions? There s all these cool ads for dolls, original TV ads, on YouTube.<br /><br />Mo is just a chilly boy! I try not to turn on the heat til January. Even if it s cold, my house has that wall of south facing windows and gets warm, plus December can be warm-ish here. I ve bought more Xmas trees wearing a sweater than a parka.[but oooh if it s cold, it can be very cold. ya never know]. (Our first hard frost is in December, that might give you an idea? The ocean stays warm til January as a rule. Your family home in MD must have a similar climate?)Lizzy Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925662100321427762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-51637659298623210032014-11-05T20:53:05.294-05:002014-11-05T20:53:05.294-05:00Great ideas with the heated dog bed!

But they also sell some sort of cord covering, even tho he mostly likes to eat plugs not cords. But maybe....Thx!Lizzy Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925662100321427762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-88082505684113301632014-11-05T13:54:09.862-05:002014-11-05T13:54:09.862-05:00Ooooooooh, the colors in your pics are spectacular...Ooooooooh, the colors in your pics are spectacular. Just beautiful.<br /><br />Still very warm days here, but quite cool nights. Definitely good sleeping weather.<br /><br />What a charming childhood memory. It is the small things isn't it? I think my favorite doll was Velvet. I'm pretty sure I cut her hair fairly soon after getting her for Christmas one year. Duh, what was I thinking.<br /><br />Poor little Mo, the heated doggie bed is an excellent idea. I always try to get to Thanksgiving, at least, before I even light the pilot in our heater. It's a game I play with myself. I'm surprised you guys can hold out so long...your weather must be much more temperate than I realize.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />KelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-24351740906899573072014-11-05T10:30:50.335-05:002014-11-05T10:30:50.335-05:00Comment; Tigger's heated bed had lamb's wo...Comment; Tigger's heated bed had lamb's wool on the inside.

I about died when I had to fly on business.<br /><br />Dearest Tigger really didn't do cold. We bought a heated bed for him that really helped keep him comfortable.

We can never collect pretty red leaves just in case the leaves are PI. [no maples here either]. <br />Lizzy Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925662100321427762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-7754282608532591422014-11-04T13:02:20.064-05:002014-11-04T13:02:20.064-05:00I like fall, too - although we usually don't g...I like fall, too - although we usually don't get much of one. Usually we go from hot summer to cold winter, but this year seems to be going differently. I'm enjoying sweater weather!<br /><br />I thought your pictures were pretty good! Love the marsh scenery, those bright red sumac? always have such great pops of color. One of the first falls we lived here there was a hayfield of tall golden grass ready to be cut - and a bright streak of sumac across the top of a low hill, bright red like a streak of lipstick!<br /><br />The only bad thing about Thanksgiving is it means getting ready for Christmas - and I always seem to be running late, LOL.<br /><br />I think Mo wants a heated pad/bed for Christmas...!!!Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17248202844330247654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918333902682601699.post-34276320577537917832014-11-03T20:41:34.361-05:002014-11-03T20:41:34.361-05:00I've put a better camera on my Christmas list ...I've put a better camera on my Christmas list too.
