Beautiful Day

Last Sunday afternoon was a beautiful fall day, which we enjoyed down by the river with a soccer ball and a ridiculous little black and white dog.  And then the sun decided to go on a little trip away from Memphis leaving us with five long, gloomy, drizzly days.  And a major case of cabin fever.



Just when we feared that it would never return, the sun decided to grace us with its presence again.  Saturday dawned bright, crisp and cool . . . perfect Spickler family weather.  So we loaded up the car with Walt's tricycle and headed out to enjoy the day.  We went to the farmer's market, the arts festival, back home for a quick nap, to Rock 'n Romp, and finally to a Halloween party.  It was a busy day that left us all exhausted by 7:30, but was definitely a welcome respite from the gloom of the previous week.



If we were the type of people who put music on our website, you would be hearing U2's "Beautiful Day" right now.  But, well, that's annoying.  So you'll just have to hum it to yourself as the soundtrack to the photo album at left.  (Hint:  It's the one titled "Beautiful Day.)

  3. I have to agree. The light post picture is the best! What a busy day y'all had - we think a busy day is getting out of the house for a Target trip AND the post office!

  5. Well, heck, I wasn't going to comment, but...well, U2 IS my fav-o-rite musical group AND I'm like Harriet, that pic under the lamp post is just too cool! He IS the light of your (earthly) lives, for sure! There's no doubt that Walt makes God happy, but you're love for him makes Him smile!
    Love y'all!
