The ultimate omelet. Turkey, Gouda, mushrooms, and avocado on top. Thanks to a friend I am back on my healthy (eggs in the morning) wagon. That expression "on the wagon" is a funny one. According to a reliable source back in the day of the pioneers (and wagon travel) when prisoners were being transported, if they were well liked by their guards they would be let "off the wagon" at night for a drink around the fire. If the guards disliked them... well they stayed "on the wagon".
So I am not sure what this says about me. ( comments welcome)
But thanks Haley for the yummy suggestion of putting turkey in the omelet.
I enjoyed every last healthy bite.

Sweet Tooth

The best doughnuts in town From Easy orchards They have this great little produce market and gift/kitchen shop. As well as a wonderful pumpkin patch that we visit each year. They always give the kiddos one of their fresh handmade doughnuts and a cup of hand pressed apple cider after the hay ride and the tour of the apple orchards.
Owen loves a good doughnut... well he has only ever had these doughnuts but they are good and he knows it.

This is the way I get to take pictures of Owen now. From behind while chasing him. I am his own personal paparazzi. I say things like "Owen this way" and "smile at your Mommy" but nothing seems to matter he runs and says "no take the pictures Mommy come on".

So this it. the pumpkin patch.

Autumn:fall, fruitage, fruition, garnering, gathering, harvest-time, harvesting, ingathering, intake, output, produce, reaping, repercussion, result,

This Autumn has turned out to be intensely yet joyfully busy. Owen and I have started a new weekly bible study/preschool program, we also started our job working as child care providers for a drug court program 3 time per month and, our family is part of a new missoinal community starting up through our Church, and Michael has been taking two college courses after working ours.With all of this new activity and our regular activities we have basically been full to the brim with life.

Some days I feel like I am barely keeping my head above the water when I realize that I am living a truly fruitful life. I am grateful to be a mother who stays home with her crazy awesome little boy. I am thankful beyond belief for a husband who has a tenacious love for me and a special gift of patience. I am blessed to see that God works in trials, and that I am firmly in His grasp.
