I will NOT say I'm playing 'Catch-Up Again'.......

Goodness gracious....I'm so behind with my blogging again. I got patooed when my camera/computer went all wonky on me last week. It was SO pretty all last week & we did school outside pretty much every day. I had taken a bunch of pictures of the kids & Rocky on the quilt out under the Dogwood tree doing math & vocabulary words, etc. and then I couldn't post them. Dumb computer. 

Friday we met Ella & kids for lunch at CFA & some Target shopping. Alli found this cute leather jacket that she wants for Christmas. She says it's perfect because it matches her cowboy boots. After shopping, Alli went home to spend the weekend with Cori. A sleepover with your best friend is always fun! Picked Ashley up & ran her to get her bangs trimmed & by the camera store to get a roll of Black & White film then back to meet with her adviser.

Saturday afternoon, two of the neighbor girls came over looking for Alli. They wanted her to go bike riding with them & to see the other neighbor's horses. They ended up staying & just hanging out visiting with me & the boys for a good while. Then later, after supper.....they came back with my cousin & wanted to know if Jon & Michael wanted to come over (just up the road) & have a bonfire. They ended up being over there until 11:30pm. I was pooped waiting up for them, but they had a blast! I'm so thankful for good neighbors/friends/family!

Monday I did tons of laundry.....it was overcast & looking like rain, so I had to use my dryer. It had been well over a week since I used it last, so I didn't feel TOO bad having to use it. Clay & the boys worked on their tree stands....it's that time of year again.....getting ready for hunting season. While they were up in the woods, they also cut a load of firewood. Clay rewarded all their hard work by getting us Vitos pizza for supper.....
AND, he also got me the ingredients to make pumpkin pie for dessert. Some Bloggy-Friend of mine had planted that little pumpkin pie seed in my brain & I had really been wanting some. It was SO yummy with a nice hot cup of coffee!

Yesterday was a wash out! The perfect day for being inside & doing some crafting. After school, I stuck in 'Singing in the Rain'....the perfect movie for such a day. I worked on some little Halloween cross-stitches while I watched. Will have to take some pictures tomorrow of my daily art journaling. Surprisingly, I've been keeping up with it each day.

That jacket goes with her personality too! WowZah!
O.K. I give up...how did you make that crust so perfect? Do you have some magical tool you use to form those triangles?

So you inspire me to do art and I inspire you to eat pumpkin pie. :-) LoL.

LOL...Sandee, that is a picture I snagged from google. So, it's not really MY pie. And I cheated & used the frozen pie crust.....but the rest of it was made by me. ;-)
