Super Saturday

Every fall, the Relief Society plans a super-fun craft day.   Today was said Super Saturday!  I spent the day making a Book of Momon scripture bag holder for Evie.  She is SO excited that she has her very own Book Of Mormon and that she can carry it to Primary every Sunday!
I also learned how to make a DELISH  and super-easy homemade pie crust.  I made Andrew and Evers a cherry pie.  It looks and smells sweetly yummy!  Can't wait to take a taste!  I am excited to buy a flour sifter and a pastry dough masher ( I am sure there is a more technical name for that, but I can't think of it at the moment!)  Now that I have my secret pie dough making skills mastered, I am looking forward to making many pies this holiday season! 

October

"There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October."

~ Nathaniel Hawthorne

October is one of my favorite months! I love that the weather cools down, the trees loose their leaves and of course...HALLOWEEN!

We have been busily preparing for the fun days ahead.  Of course, the house has been decorated since the last week of September!  Usually I make the hubby wait until October 1st to put out all of the spooky decor, but this year I made an exception since we had my mom, my little bro and his wife coming from out of town for Evie's bday.   

We plan on visiting:
