The Painted Pot







Delaney had fun making some Christmas presents at a local pottery place. We can't wait to see what they look like after they come out of the kiln.

Sick child and fresh fruits and veggies!







Poor D was sick today, woke up with a not so good feeling in her belly. It couldn't have come on a worse day, as today was her day to bring snack, be the helper of the day, and bring in the guessing can. I was also going to spend the afternoon volunteering at her school. Oh the best laid plans......



We did get our first Door to Door Organic order! It was so nice to get a box full of fruits and veggies without having to leave the house!!

Halloween







We spent Halloween weekend painting our guest room, finishing it 10 minutes before the start of trick or treating! Just need to hang some pictures and find some pillows and the room will be all ready for our Thanksgiving guests.
