The Simple Woman's Daybook - October 5, 2009

For today...

Outside my window...sunny and cool. It is supposed to be a very Fall-like week.

I am thinking...about being off on Wednesday. It is supposed to be a nice day so I'm trying to think of something fun for Caleb and I to do together.

I am thankful...for good music. I realized on Saturday night how much I love music and how much it really motivates me.

I am praying...for a good and fruitful fellowship with my friend Tonya this evening.

From the kitchen...apple crisp (see the recipe here)

I am reading...the book of John, the last chapters of Daniel and continuing with Charlotte's Web. When I'm done with Daniel I want to read The Case for Christ.

I am creating...I am going to start this week on Jamison and Caleb's Halloween costumes and some Halloween treat bags. Jamison wants to be a super hero and Caleb will be her side kick.

Around the house...I have few things to do on my To Do list, like pull out all clothes for donation, reorganize my towels in the linen closet, and straighten the games in Jamison's closet.

One of my favorite things...hanging out outside with the kids. I love to watch them ride their bikes and yesterday Jamison was pulling Caleb in the wagon. He loved it!

A few plans for the rest of the week...hanging out with my friend Tonya this evening, tackling my To Do list and there's a PTA meeting on Thursday. Pretty low key...I can tell it's Fall.

Go here to record your daybook.

I have to get busy on my boys' halloween costumes too! Eli is going to be a dinosaur {Grant's costume from a few years ago} and Henry and Grant are going to be cavemen! My boys were SUPER heroes last year for halloween and they still love playing dress up in their costumes!

I am so behind on Halloween and decorating this year...but I finally got some stuff outside and hopefully the rest inside tonight! You are so sweet with your birthday wishes...I wish you lived closer too...that apple crisp sounds so delicious! :)

I need to find a big box to make a boombox or radio costume for Alex! I've never made their costumes before..so we'll see! Good luck...Love your lists!

Can you tell where you got the idea for the daybook? It's an amazingly cool idea that I want to file away.
