Halloween...Preschool Style

Well we got a letter requesting that parents sign up for treats (last week) for the preschool Halloween party I was VERY excited to see the blank next to homemade cookies open! So I made some of my delicious iced sugar cookies in pumpkin, ghost, and cat shapes. Brandon helped of course although he didn't get to help with the icing because we had the fall party for pioneer club at church last night and by the time we got home it was bedtime so Jesse helped instead!

So when I picked him up to day he was LOADED down with goodies....can we say sugar rush! He also came home with the fall crafts he had made...an acorn, cat, and a bat they were all very well made and super cute! Brandon also reported they played lots of games and the cookies were a big hit (yea for mom!!)

Our weekend....

Friday I went to Mi Pueblos with Lorissa and Nancy to celebrate my birthday....27! On Saturday I fought a cold all day...but did find the time between naps to start the four dozen cookies for Brandon to take to preschool on Wednesday for his Halloween party I also made strawberry bread for MOPS. We then finished baking the cookies on Sunday but will ice them later in the week. We mostly just hung out as a family and rested! (I needed it, I don't know about the rest of the clan)

Wedding picture delivery

I dropped off the wedding proofs....and they loved them!! I was so excited! I have been so nervous about giving them over just because I thought they might be disappointed but they weren't!!!

I also found out today that Dr.G is having some health issues and will be out of the office for the entire month of November....I'm not sure how that will affect my job or if he will be coming back full time even....Four Seasons needs to get booming!

Falling Leaves

This was how I spent Sunday the 19th, working with six beautiful families, these are a few of best of the day.

Freezer Meals...Whos idea was this?

I just completed making twelve meals (chicken and dumplins) in one day, nine hours to be exact....WHAT was I thinking that I could do this in one day??? I just kept telling myself that it just means that for 12 nights we won't have to really think about dinner!

Yesterday we had lots of fun we went to Tate's apple in orchard with Grandma and Grandpa Lohrman and Caydence...it was so nice it had a great barnyard petting zoo we actually watched a goat give birth...so cool!!

The only downside was it was Rachel's nap time and I way over dressed her so she was very cranky. We then came back to our house and Bonnie and I discussed website ideas/wants I can't wait until its offically up and running!!

Wedding

The wedding was this past weekend in Brown county and I think overall the pictures turned out very well. I do find myself picking them apart on what could have went better! I can't wait until I can do another one they are addicting!! One thing that has become evident after photographing this wedding is just how much I want to succeed and be able to be home with the kids!! I am now paying for my time off of work because I am working waaay too many hours...and am sooo tired. This weekend holds some fun things though Jesse's mom and Bill are coming for a visit and we are going to an apple orchard and then I have to get to work on making my freezer meals for MOPS. I keep telling myself that the hard work of preparing 12 meals will result in 12 meals for us that we will just have to take from freezer to stove to mouth so it will be worth it. I will post some pics of the wedding soon! (they are in the editing process right now)
