A couple friends

The women's conference at our church was last weekend. My friend, Shannon (below) is one of our pastor's wives and she and I have become good friends. :)


We also played a little dress up and wore silly costumes to get our pics done. Shannon is in the middle and on the far right is another woman from our church named Jeri. She's a fantastic woman whom I adore. She serves on the prayer team with me at church.

Just a little fun :)

Apples, hair cuts, and frigid nights....

Well, let's see. October has been a busy month and it's barely started! As soon as we hit pay day I went and got my hair cut. I've been saving up for it and planning this cut for about a month. I am really loving the cut and am getting many compliments on it (which, who doesn't love, right?). Eric even thinks it's cute so I think I made a home run!!! woohooooo!!!



Last night a friend and I went to the Casting Crowns concert in Kennewick. It's about an hour and a half from where we live so we went early and had dinner and then hit the concert. The opening bands were great and it was a good night to just be with Paula and stand amid thousands of other believers and lift our voices and hands to God. Paula sings on my team at church. She's a mom to 3 and a grandma to 3. She's young at heart and is fun to hang out. The more I get to know here the more I adore her. :o) We figured everyone probably thought we were mother and daughter last night. Ha Ha.



During one of the songs an artist came out on stage with a blank canvas and some buckets of paint. Below is what he ended with. It's amazing to watch it come together!!!!


Last week I was given 5 boxes of Honey Crisp apples. Since then I have been processing apples. I've made apple sauce for the freezer. I've canned apple sauce (in pints and hoping to ration in).

I have dried apples in my food dehydrator. One batch with a sprinkle of cinnamon and a couple batches without.



The canner lady :)

I even prepped 3 apple pies. All I have to do is add a little butter and a pie crusts and I'm good to go!!!

It's been a productive week!!!!! :)
