For Grandma....

My grandma and I talked about applesauce awhile back. I've always done it the same way. A metal colander and a wooden mallet. And I MASH the tar out of those apples I boiled. My friend had this "Sauce Master." I had my doubts. 1st, the name is funny. 2nd: after I got it together, I inspected it, and thought: Shelley (my friend) is really laughing at me. This will never work. I told my grandma about it, and she said, "how does that work?"
Well above is a picture and it WORKS!!! It was fun, and easy. I am excited to do more. It's even been placed on my Christmas list. So Grandma, I'm sorry I didn't invite you over to play with it, but once I get one I'll do a demonstration :) Even the twins helped!

Other than applesauce this week, we stayed busy. Megan had a sleepover of 4 girls. It was L O U D!! But fun! What a good group of girls they are and fun to be around.

From there we went Art Prize Saturday. Leah and I went to it on a field trip but it was fast and furious. So we went back so the other girls could see it too. They were amazed by the art and how big some of them were.

Then we did a little shopping. Had to get them some church clothes and Megan needed pants (she strongly dislikes jeans). We ROCKED the clearance rack at Children's Place. That makes a happy mama!!

The weather is so nice we had to take advantage and get stuff in. But I think it's back to the routine this week, kind of. Leah has a sleepover birthday party with a few girls (3 of them are turning 13 OH BOY) but not at our house, (OH BOY for the other mom :)

Harvest continues!! Dust is good and it's dry out. That means Stevie works am to late pm. I do like harvest season, I like fall in general. Pray for no rain and safety for all these men out there.
