The Glorious Cosmos (the flower, that is)

Keep in mind that our little lamppost is 6 feet tall.

Autumn Time


Pretty leaves are falling down,
Green, orange, yellow and brown.
Here comes one colored red,
It landed on my head.

Spooky Preschool

Last week at Preschool we had a darling Halloween party for the kids: they made witch's brew, cupcake spiders, played the Hokey-Pokey, and paraded around in their costumes. I guess we should have taken the group photo before they ate the chocolate cupcakes.

A few Halloween picts

We had a fun time visiting Rachel and Brad in Twin Falls for the Blackson's annual Halloween party this year. They were fabulous hosts! We ate great food, played fun games, and teased the trick-or-treaters. Here are a few pictures. I need to get some better ones of Isaiah and Charlotte ... so I'll have to post those later.

Charlotte showing off

This is what she does now every time I put her down on the floor.

Pear Face, Cute Face

Charlotte thinks it's weird to eat food.


















I think she looks adorable in a hat.

Welcome to the Olive Garden

Last week I wanted Zuppa Toscana, the amazing soup from the Olive Garden. But Seth hates that restaurant and we always wait forever to get our food, so I decided to make it. I found a recipe online and even though I made about 3 substitutes, it tasted just like the real deal. Seth had made delicious breadsticks earlier in the week that we needed to finish off, and I made a fresh salad to make it our own meal of soup, salad and breadsticks. Yum! I even made an apple pie that day (but we gave it to a neighbor). Isaiah loved helping me slice the apples.
