Sunday catch up

I played catch up with my blog again today...a few fall photos.

Sweet Dreams

The kids fell asleep in our bed the other night....I love how sweet they look in dreamland.

I've had a new calling for a few weeks...2nd counselor in Relief Society. This is the first time in over a decade that I have had a relief society calling. It's different, but I am quickly learning to LOVE it. When I was called, I was a little...okay, a lot nervous to learn that I was responsible for enrichment and even more worried about an enrichment night that had been scheduled just two weeks away, but not planned. Well, we had the activity on Thursday evening, and it was a big success! No pics...I was so busy I forgot to get my camera out. We had a GREAT turnout, a wonderful dinner, and the sisters had a lot of fun with our favorite things exchange. I have had many positive comments...including several from husbands who said their wives came home in a good mood and had enjoyed the evening. I feel much more confident about future enrichment activities...and about my new calling. Yeah!

One perfect Saturday Morning

For the first time in MONTHS....we didn't have to be ANYWHERE on Saturday morning....yipee!! We still got up early. Jason came with me on my run...he's usually at work by 6am. We got home and the kids were watching a movie and they had JUST STARTED IT....so we went to our room and locked the door. The kids didn't come upstairs for another hour or two... then we made yummy pancakes with blackberries and pure maple syrup on top with hot cocoa (Did I mention it's been a little chilly here the last couple of days?) It was a perfect Saturday morning....cuddling with my hubby.

Cole earns the wolf!

Cole was very happy to get his wolf award!

The tradition in this pack is to hang the cub scout upside down and pin the award on upside down...then once the cub scout has done a good deed...you turn it right side up again...
