Week of Oct. 22
# 1-4 Went to Parkville on a Saturday and just sat under a tree at English Landing Park. It was lovely. I read a book that wasn't school related just for fun!
#5 pretty tree at St. Therese Church and School
#6- I made Pecan Bars (pretty much like pecan pie in a delightful little square)
#7 Made chocolate chip pumpkin cookies
#8 Joey looking especially adorable-keeping the blanket warm :)
#9 Joey inspects the grocery bags when I get home from the grocery store. We call him "Inspector #37."
Week of Oct. 29
#10 My friend Brooke told me about this...but make sure you throw it out before 2 weeks (it got all squishy and leaked gross pumpkin juices all over my husband. Yuck!)
#11 Went to see the the little monkey pants at MNU-she was in the Homecoming Court. It was fun times!
#12 Pumpkin Pie Dip (very yummy with apple slices-especially Granny Smith, gingersnaps, or pretzel sticks)
#13 I made butternut-carrot squash soup, put it in a bread bowl, and put roasted pumpkin seeds on top! (This was a day I didn't have school so I actually had some time :)
#14 Bob gives it 2 thumbs up!
#15 Went home to Bolivar, came down with strep throat, and saw my girls Katie and Tara in their Halloween costume finery:) I can't believe how fast they're growing up!
Week of Nov. 5
#15 -17 Some favorite fall cards I made...
#18-19 Bob sent me flowers at school for our 13 month anniversary...just to surprise me:) It was very thoughtful and made my day! My kids made sure they "oohed" and "aahed" appropriately :)
video-my sister in the homecoming court and her escort Taylor (they were hilarious...I would expect no less).

Two things:
#1: how did I not know your sister went to MNU? That's where I graduate from.
#2: how do you make all of those amazing things and still remain tiny? Not fair. :)
#1-I don't know...I think I keep thinking I need to tell you and then I always forget. :) She loves it! It's sort of funny since my dad is a professor at a southern baptist school much like MNU and many people thought she'd go to SBU (where my dad works) or Jewell, but it's been a really good fit for her!
#2-Thanks for thinking I'm tiny. I don't often have that opinion. It must be my job...hardly have time to eat and run around chasing children all day :) It will probably change when I have kids:)
That soup looks awesome...no one in my family would eat it, but maybe I could convince you to bring me some. :) So what was the book?
Next time I make it, I will send some to Indiana (because the next time I most likely will make it will be next October :)
It was one of the Francine Rivers' books...can't remember the name at the moment. Her Daughter's Dream maybe?
