We have been staying really busy the last couple of days! We cleaned our garage out and built some shelving in it to store all the odds and ends. Until Modern's shop is finished our garage tends to be a "catch all" for some of the miscellaneous stuff that isn't needed in one of the four trailers. It got so bad you couldn't even walk through our garage. So the whole family worked together to get it cleaned out and organized.
Then we cleaned up the rest of our yard and put hoses away and did all the little miscellaneous stuff before it gets any colder.
Yesterday we made a HUGE double batch of Halloween sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting. I love love love these cookies and try to make them three times a year....Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine's Day. We always make a big batch so we can share them. We took a plate to our neighbors on both sides, Grandpa & Grandma Jensen, Gary & Amber, Kayden's teacher, Kayden's scout group, all three of Troy's crews, Ori's best friend from preschool, and saved enough to take with us this weekend to share with the Burley group.
I received my study material to start studying for my Life and Disability portion of my insurance license. I am eager to get these tests over with also, so I can really get going on this. I am excited to try something new.
We are headed to Burley tomorrow after the boys get out of school to go and help celebrate my Mom's birthday. Excited to go and see family and friends and I will have some pictures to share when I return!

Your cookies look SO delicious. I TOO have to make them 3 times a year-Halloween, Christmas, and Valentines day and then maybe one time during the summer and of course-they are not the same without the cream chez!
Good luck with insurance. My husband started to do this before he was promoted at work!

Okay I think we need to be neighbors so we can share in the wealth of the sugar cookies!! Mmmmmmm :)
Your shelves look great. we are needing shelves for our garage, but those will come with time and money. :)youre always doing fun things with your kids. I love decorating cookies or eating the ones that get mysteriously "broken." Congrats on passing your one test and good luck on the next one.
