I wouldn't call you boring, I'd say you are intellectuals. :-) I look forward to the conversations I have with my oldest son because these are the types of things we talk about too. <br /><br />Love your nature hike. and the oranges of the oaks is lovely. We don't have many oaks here, mostly maples so it's nice to see them.Loishttp://theecograndma.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-45610319466460249162015-11-03T17:45:29.635-05:002015-11-03T17:45:29.635-05:00Actually, that choice is a win-win, isn't it?Actually, that choice is a win-win, isn't it?Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-32805407681283230072015-11-03T14:08:01.438-05:002015-11-03T14:08:01.438-05:00I fall smack on the Ella side because I think she ...I fall smack on the Ella side because I think she had perfect pitch and a very clear voice, but I would never dismiss Sarah who was also pretty darn amazing.Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-48149132268658669742015-11-03T07:14:51.143-05:002015-11-03T07:14:51.143-05:00Your conversations don't sound boring to me, b...Your conversations don't sound boring to me, but I've been talking about tax laws and zinc.

Ours are things are debates over who is the best Christopher Moore character. Or Ella vs. Sarah Vaughn? Or even things as silly as black eyed peas vs lady peas. Though we are all boring we are all very opinionated and more than willing to share our opinions with each other.Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-35812890907904855162015-11-02T17:09:32.470-05:002015-11-02T17:09:32.470-05:00I know it won't always be like this, but yes, ...I know it won't always be like this, but yes, it is nice that we're fairly close together. Wally is about an hour away for both Theo and us. That makes it so we can have an afternoon together without too much driving.<br /><br />I view small minded as gossiping about other people. Of course, you have to talk about family happenings such as weddings and pregnancies.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315851262843522940.post-8482329244150648842015-11-02T17:06:51.066-05:002015-11-02T17:06:51.066-05:00I think there is one we can use that does have our...I think there is one we can use that does have our heads in it and we all happen to be looking at the camera.

At least you aren't small minded! (although if you are discussing happy events like weddings and pregnancies, I think you can be forgiven for discussing people, but maybe that's my small-minded take on the subject).

Last night's dinner, my husband wanted to know how much we spent on groceries for the month -- not exactly riveting conversation material.<br /><br />I sure hope your family picture for the Christmas letter DOES have heads in the photo!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.com
