What have we been up to??

I haven't posted anything in a little while so I thought I'd just do a post with a few things that we've been up to.

Do you know what I have been finding all over my house? In couch crevices, under pillows, on pillows, under the piano bench, scattered all over the floor...
THESE! SEQUINS
!

I don't know what caused me to say yes to Isabel when she asked for a big bag of sequins. Maybe because they're so pretty and sparkly and she was soo excited about them. AND they're pretty inexpensive.

Isabel mixes them and pretends they are food. She designs papers with them and sticks them on things with a glue stick. She also throws them in the air like confetti when I'm not looking. :)


Last week sometime Brian and Isabel went off to pick a pumpkin to carve.
I stayed home and made Cinnamon Bun Caramel Corn! It was the best stuff ever and super easy to make. Here is where I got the recipe...and incidentally where I get lots of recipes!

Here she is digging out all the yucky stuff from the inside. (and yes, that is our ancient tv sticking out behind her! haha. It makes me laugh!)

You can't tell but the pumpkin has eyelashes. And there's our silly cat standing at the door posing too.


On Wednesday night Brian and I went to see this guy in concert! For free!

Our family just loves listening to Israel Houghton. His music is so fun and worshipful. One of my favorite songs of his from this album is actually playing now at the bottom of the page. We had such a good time worshipping that night together with all kinds of people. If you don't have this album, you really need to get it and listen to it. It's incredible. Or check in again on Monday and I might just have a surprise!

Alright, we're off to go trick-or-treating in our friends' neighborhood tonight! Stay posted for photos of a really cute blue fairie. :)
