little owl

we're not that into halloween over here, but it will be nice to spend tomorrow evening at a little halloween get together with some friends. there will be pots of soup, trick or treaters, costumes (on the little ones, not us), and most likely a lot of fun. i was inspired to make a costume for our little one and decided to turn her into a little owl. for the homemade owl costume, i just used materials i had in the house. i think it turned out to be so cute! when i tried it on her yesterday, she walked around saying, "hoot, hoot!"

 

 

isn't she the cutest owl you've ever seen?

on a friday night

we just returned from a beautiful walk in the park. as we walked, leaves fell from the trees all around us and our feet crunched leaves on the ground. little one ate an apple in her stroller and then played on the swings and slide. it was in the seventies today (!), so we even took off her shoes and pants and let her wade for a bit. we threw rocks in the water and chased the ducks. a perfect start to the weekend.

we have been quite busy these days. things at our church are going very well. we are really enjoying the young adult book study we are leading and we enjoy the youth group as well. it is fun for us to be working together to lead those groups and we are seeing how our strengths and weaknesses really go together very well.

in other news, my hubby ran over and killed a squirrel the other day. it was the squirrel's fault because it ran out in front of our car and then stood there trying to figure out which way to go. but, the whole experience was a bit traumatic.

aside from another batch of waffles, i haven't made any sourdough recipes in the past few days.

next week is a bit on the lighter side schedule-wise, so we are planning to take the little one to a pumpkin patch.

i realized i haven't taken any photographs this entire month, so i need to change that.

and that is all for tonight.
