I had a football game yesterday afternoon so my Saturday, day of rest, was wasted. I left the house around 9 and got home at 5:15. As soon as I got home, I laid down to try to take a nap. Unfortunately, I was unable to fall asleep and I just laid around until about 8:30. It was then that I finally fell asleep, and that was it. I woke up around 10 just in time for Tom to call and say goodnight then it was off to bed. I felt kind of bad for missing church this morning, but I think God will understand that I needed the sleep and the rest. Once I got up I was feeling very rested and spent the morning watching some TV. I then got the motivation to use all the fall pumpkins, gourds and Indian corn that Mom and Dad gave me last weekend. I took a little trip to Michael's and got some raffia and some ribbon and made these beautiful wall hangings. I also got things to make a fall wreath but didn't have time today. My Mary Kay lady came over at 1:30. I gave her one of these and she thought it was pretty too!
Here's the one I kept for myself. It is hanging on the wall right by the front door. I am so proud of my work and it took less than 5 minutes to make and less than $2!! My kind of craft project!.

Here are the other 2. I gave the one on the right to Anne-Louise. I am not sure who I am going to give the other one to. I will have to think about it!
It's been a rainy day today and I was craving something sweet. I had some apples still in the fridge and I have wanted apple crisp ever since Mom has been bragging about making the apple crisp from the apples from her trees. I make some pretty good apple crisp I have to say. I think I could give Mom a run for her money if I could just grow my own apples! Mmmmmm... It was yummy!
