I spent my days in the gardens and my nights knitting while mom, dad, Maggie and Mitch were on Nantucket! I rumaged through mom's wool trunk and found lots of red yarn and a little bit of green too so I thought that a Christmas sweater would be a perfect choice!
And now to try it on and see how it fits!hummmmmmmm the neckline is a little bit large and my flower petal hat really doesn't look appropriate with a sweater! I think I'll need to knit a wool cap to match!
What do you think, Maggie? Does the pullover look okay or should I have knit the cardigan pattern instead?I'm getting the idea that you don't like it! Oh well! I did have a good time knitting it! Maybe it will fit one of my friends better than it fits me!
You have to see this tomato that I discovered in the garden yesterday! It looks like fat wings, doesn't it?!
Dad's friend, Jan, gave us these seeds a few years back! They're heirloom tomatoes that Jan calls Father Lou, after the man who shared seeds with her! It's a plum-like tomato, not too juicy and it makes the best fresh tomato sauce!
I guess by now everyone has heard that I spazzed when I heard about Mango's wheelie brother, Hector being dognapped and then listed on ebay to go to the highest bidder!
We did hear back from Detective Joe Stains and he seems to think that it's a cloning matter! We do intend to rescue Hector-Farley and have an in-depth conversation and find out exactly who he is and where he came from! I'll keep you updated on this front for sure!
See you all next Wednesday!
Love, Autumn
At first it was odd to come upstairs seeing as I've always slept downstairs but I'm getting used to it and I actually like it! I think I feel more a part of the family now because I get to climb the stairs with them at the end of the day and crawl into bed!
Check out the awesome card with Stanley running! I wish he was running to visit us and planning on staying awhile but he doesn't have any backpack with him! We could sure have a lot of fun together, Stanley and dad will be only too happy to include you on all of our hiking and ice cream trips!
Her name is Henrietta and I see Mitch has already taken quite a liking to her! Why does this not surprise me!
Whoa! Check out this treat! This is my kinda treat, Stanley! Don't even begin to ask, Mitch, because the answer is NO! This is MINE!
Are you listening to me, Mitch? Henrietta is MY toy from Stanley! I'll share some duckie breast treats with you, okay? Come on, give her back!
You said we had a deal! You can let go now!
Mitch was carrying the apple around and had huge drools dangling from his mouth and he looked very scuzzy! Who would want to pet him looking like that! While dad was in buying his paper Mitch decided to eat his apple, thank doGness!
We headed for the docks to have a look at all the fancy boats! Mom wanted a picture of these pretty flowers and look who had to be in the picture taking a pee! ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Dad and Mitch are discussing which boat Mitch would like to buy for dad for his birthday! There were sure a lot of choices! There was actually no bad choice! hehehehe
We passed by more pretty flowers while we walked around town!
I wanted to go inside lots of shops but mom wouldn't let me!
This one has some really neat stuff, mom!
This is the Scrimshaw shop and this guy really wants us to come inside! Please say yes, mom!
That night dad took us to Star's for ice cream!
Mom even shared the end of her cone with me!
We had a blast! Nantucket was SO MUCH FUN but it came to an end on Saturday morning at 6AM. These next couple of shots we're on the ferry and it's pulling out and heading for Hyannis!
It's nice to be home and to sleep in our own beds and walk in our own neighborhood but we do miss the relaxing atmosphere and being with mom and dad all the time and having the most fun adventures ever! Thanks for coming along with us and letting us show you our special spot in the world. 
Nantucket could never be as much fun for dad if he couldn't visit the old cemetary and see all of the old headstones!
We can't tell you how many nights we went home totally exhausted! We even tired Mitch out and that's hard to do!
Wednesday night, dad decided it was time to introduce Mitch to the waves on Cisco beach! We passed by this very cool windmill every time we headed to Cisco!
Mitch wasn't too sure about the ocean when we first got there! Dad was pretty insistent that he go in!
Are you ready to go home yet, Mitch??!! hehehehe
Suddenly a HUGE wave rolled in and both Mitch and dad sorta got wet legs! Mitch wasn't too keen about it but he was a good sport and dad was happy!
My reaction right from the start was to get off the beach ASAP and get back to the car! No way was I getting wet! YUK!
I didn't think Mitch got hit in the head by one of those big waves but on the ride home I saw him having a conversation with Mr. BobbleHead!
Goodnight for now! We'll be back with more pictures from Nantucket!
