(To my sisters who are dying for us to have a baby, I'm sorry- I just couldn't resist on the title) Anyway, we are looking forward to being able to tickle the keys of our little piano.
Cinnamon Rolls. I learned how to make cinnamon rolls! I know it is so silly, but I've always been intimidated by the whole yeast thing- I'm not sure if it's that yeast is a fungus or fermentation process or because it seems so "adult mom-like". Anyway, our ward had a bread/ cinnamon roll making class where I learned how easy it is to make bread in my (apparently) under-utilized Bosch. So that night me and my neighbor, Melanie, decided we would put our news skills to to the test while the boys watched the BYU football game. We made pizza, bread sticks, cinnamon twists, AND cinnamon rolls. Yes I think we were a little over zealous, but it was super fun and it all turned out great! Here we are with our pre-frosted cinnamon rolls fresh out of the oven
Halloween. Since it was just Halloween, I can't post without at least mentioning it. We went to a block party and then enjoyed passing out candy to the little "trixters" (as I like to call them). I got to see my nieces Lily (the cutest Little Red Riding Hood you ever did see), Heidi (a pirate), and Amber (a witch- but she made sure to clarify that she was a "nice witch"). I went around with Ruth and my nieces "trick or treating" for a bit and to a couple haunted houses in our neighborhood. Let's just say I was glad to be holding the hand of a 6 year old when we went through the haunted houses because they did not try terrorize us quite so bad or pull the chain saw on us- few!
