Miss L's Birthday Date

Tonight was Miss L's birthday present/date with her dad. They went to Disney on Ice. She wore her princess dress, of course. She was so excited! I am still waiting for them to come home.

Piano Recital

Today was the semi-annual piano recital. A lot of students and nervous kids. They all did really great. And this year I was only left with 2 extra cookies, not boxes. I only made a few this time. Miss L decided about half way through when she thought it clearly her turn to play a song, and promptly walked up to the piano on the stand, luckily I had a friend/parent who graciously took her out. I think it is probably time to start her, so she can be a "student" at the next recital.

Caramel Apples

I decided to make chocolate turtles from our Walgreen's 1/2 price Halloween caramels, and my stash of 20 lbs. of fine Georgia pecans I am trying to eat up. I didn't quite make the caramel right, it was too runny for the turtles, but perfect for Miss L to make a caramel apple, which is a perfect project for her age. It tasted DEVINE. Good thing I have another bag tucked away another project next month.

Temple with Tots

We go up to the LDS temple and trade toddlers and babies so moms can go to the temple every month. It was gorgeous weather on Wednesday, so the tots and I ventured out for a walk.

On a side note, I had them all lined up on a bench for picture, when the sprinkler system system turned on with all five kids in tote. Classic.

Trick or Treat

Trick or Treat...lil' G's favorite phrase of the evening. He loved carrying around his candy and getting it in his bag.








We went to a pumpkin patch a few days ago. Miss L painted the pumpkin and then we carved it yesterday me and her.
