Abigail is a good helper at laundry when she wants to be

She also really likes to hang up her dress up clothes.
She would like a closet

Abigail just watched a video where the girl had a feather boa.
Now she likes this fluffy scarf a friend made even more and is calling it

Signs of fall: changing leaves

Our summer has been so mild that I don't think we want to see it go,
but we are seeing signs that fall is coming.
This is about all the leaf changing that happens around here,
but these are already red.

We found this super cool fall pears!

Striped and spotted at the same time

Recent monthly trip to Walmart
All the other lanes are still closed

And we need three carts.
Also, it is strangely exciting to see things like "normal" sized carts again.

We got it all to fit in the car and still get all the people in, but just barely
