Day 303: U2
October 30
We have quite the U2 CD collection. I think there might be a few more that didn't make it into the shot.
Day 302: Zombie Lexi
October 29
Today was our church Halloween party, and this zombie came along for the ride. I love that this is the one of my girls who was the most into princesses and pink glitter.
(Don't ask how long it took to get her hair back to normal. It was worth it, though.)
Day 301: Getting Ready for Halloween
October 28
I worked at the school book fair this morning and forgot to take pictures, so the best I have is this detail of Lexi's Halloween costume. It's going to be awesome. Gruesome, but awesome.
Day 300: Another Fall Tree
October 27
I remembered on my way into class tonight that I hadn't taken a picture yet, and this tree caught my eye.
Day 299: Seize the Day!
October 26
Vicki has been working on this song for several weeks now, and, amazingly, I'm still not tired of listening to it.
Day 298: Dessert?
October 25
Ellie came up with a "dessert" recipe all on her own and insisted on making it. It included (lots of) sugar, apple pieces, chocolate chips, sprinkles, tomatoes, and cheese, and would have included goldfish crackers if we'd had any on hand. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite as tasty as she'd envisioned.
Day 297: I Love Fall!
October 24
Fall is my favorite season because of all the colors, and I've loved this particular tree for as long as we've lived here. Now that the house is for sale, I'd love for it to be mine, but I think I'll have to be content to admire it from afar as we walk to and from school.
Day 296: Brownies
October 23
Lexi made these brownies from scratch. (She also decorated them herself, with liberal amounts of powdered sugar and sprinkles.) They were fantastic!
Day 295: Good Food with Good Friends
October 22
Our friends loaned us the entire 6 seasons of Lost on DVD with the understanding that we'd have a Lost discussion dinner once we finished. It took just over a year, but we finally got to have that dinner party tonight!
Day 294: Guava Cheesecake
October 21
Chris surprised me with lunch out, something we can actually do on a weekday now that the kids are all in school. We went to Pambiche, a tasty Cuban restaurant here in Portland. All the dessert choices looked and sounded excellent, but I highly recommend this cheesecake.
Day 293: Yay for Me!
October 20
My first test in, oh, 11 years. And in chemistry, no less. Needless to say, I'm pretty proud of myself!
Day 292: Paper Bags
October 19
Of course the first week the "no plastic bags" law goes into effect, I forget my reusable bags.

Day 290: Laundry
October 17
Just a small sample of the clothes I have washed and folded today. And it's only about half done. I should really just do it more often, but I despise the laundry.
