This October has been so beautiful and fun! Here are a few of the things we did.
We had a cookout one evening to make "mountain pies" like Scott and Laura Keesee taught us a few months ago. You take sandwich bread and then put either marinara sauce and mozzarella in it (Ryan and the girls did this) or several cheeses (like I did), and then cook it for a few minutes in the cast iron square over a fire. For dessert you put in some croissant dough, chocolate, and jam (dark chocolate and raspberry is the bomb) and cook that. Oh my goodness, this is fabulousness!
One Sunday afternoon the Stonehaven volleyball team went to a GT women's volleyball game to celebrate the end of the season. It was so fun to watch these amazing women play. Even better, Tech got the win over Duke!
The girls had a lot of fun carving pumpkins themselves this year. Ryan found this neat set that is more like a mallet and cookie cutters, and it worked really well for making great designs.
Ryan and the girls went to the Jonquil Festival one Saturday while I was in China. They met up with the Henderson family (minus Parker), so I know they had a lot of fun together. I love this family.
Ryan taught Lily had to smoke brats one evening. She took these to a party at Molly Kate's house.
On Reformation Day, Mia dressed up as a warrior princess. She looked awesome!
On Halloween we went over the Foxes. We had a great time catching up with them. Lily and Sarah dressed up as Sully and Mike from Monsters Inc. How cute were they?
All five of these girls were ready to have fun and get some candy!
Everyone sorted out their loot afterwards. Mia scored big!
Lily made the dough by hand for deep dish pizzas one evening. Yum!
I sure do love these two. Ryan treated the girls to a J Christopher's breakfast one morning while I was in China after a visit to the doctor for Lily's check-up and their flu shots. This was a fun treat.
This has been such a beautiful month!
