Are you sure???

It has really begun feeling like fall here in the week or so.  These pictures are from about 3 weeks ago in our back yard when the summer blooms were fading and the autumn leaves were just beginning.  I just love the fall color the blueberry bushes display.  I was noticing today, many of the leaves have already fallen. We have gotten a couple of decent rain storms so our brown lawn is now a vibrant green.  Ron harvested the 10 or so apples off of our little tree and boy are they great tasting little gems!

Today I was called as the Young Women's President for our ward.  It is a very scary, time intensive, important, and did I mention scary(?) calling.  My two counselors are very competent women who also have a bit of the "deer in the headlights" look about them right now. I think all of us are secretly asking "Are you sure about this?" None of us has very much experience in the Young Women's program. I guess we will figure it out with a LOT of help from above.  When the call was announced, there were a few shocked young women, including the 2 that live in this house.  I certainly hope we do a good job for them.

Ron and Kaili spent Thursday, Friday and much of Saturday on the mainland so Kaili could attend Priest/Laurel conference.  Ron was able to visit our granddaughters and Sean and Des while Kaili attended her conference.  I'm glad they were able to go, but it was nice to have them home again.

I baked some vanilla cupcakes last night to take to my Sunday School class today.  Aurora decided to reduce the number of them from 24 to 14 while they cooled on the counter.  I guess she really enjoyed them, because there wasn't a crumb-or wrapper- left from the 10 she ate.  It seems she has been sniffing hopefully at every flat surface, the counters, table, my desk in search for more ever since.

Adam is still doing well in Moose Jaw, I'll post as soon as he transfers somewhere else.

Have a great week everyone-
