We have made good use of the beautiful leaves this fall! I was so happy to have the Nikolaisen family in again, and to see that Duke was still with them. He was in their family pictures two years ago, and he was a pretty old dog then. He provided some merriment by eating grass and not looking at the camera. The kids, however, were absolutely great about cooperating and did everything we asked–including lying on their tummies on the cold, prickly ground. Mom and Dad did a good job, too! 🙂
