FHE Pumpkin Carvings!

Madalyn by her pumpkin with glasses. We thought Rachael would choose to have her's with glasses because she wears them, but I guess not. Way to go Madalyn!

Pool fun in the sun!




We went to St. George last weekend with some friends. What fun we had in the sun swimming and playing. Here is the best group picture I got of everyone. It was a great mini vacation. We can't wait until we can do it again.

Lucky Number 13!











The number 13 has always been lucky for Layne and I. Madalyn was so excited this year to wear the lucky number for soccer. She really did have great luck. Her team got better each game they played. She loved soccer and is quite the fast runner. She is sad it is over. That is until next year, when she plays again.

Fall Sewing Project


This is a fallish table runner I made for my long desk in my family room. I made it for Halloween and Thanksgiving. It was easy and quick to make. I actually had fun making it. I am going to make one for Chirstmas. I think the color adds to the holiday. I think it looks nice with decorations on it. What do you think?
