Cox Farms

There is a family owned business in Northern Virginia called Cox Farms, which has had a Fall Festival for the past umpteen years or more. We've been going to it for a long time. Each year the farm gets some new fun thing to do. They have rope swings, slides, hayrides, and a corn maze that isn't just a corn maze. They let you eat all the apples you want, and guzzle as much fresh apple cider as your heart desires while you're there. We had some special folks visiting from out-of-town, so of course we had to take them there.

I have a new baby, and it's pink!

Yesterday I received a Gazelle, a new electronic cutting machine. I haven't had much time to play with it, but it cuts beautifully! I've been using a Wishblade for the last few years, and I've loved it, but it is limited to 8 inches wide and is having trouble cutting thick cardstock. It won't cut chipboard. The Gazelle will cut 12 inches wide and will also cut chipboard. I'll try to post pictures of the machine and projects in a few days.
