Oh, how I love my new oven. Tonight we baked twenty plus dozen cookies for Halloween, and we did it half the time it used to take. Love it, love it love it. No more staying up till midnight baking the cookies.
Tomorrow is the Ward Fall Festival and Stew and I, with the help of a couple of friends will be making the fry bread. This is really kind of funny, cause everyone calls it Indian Fry Bread, but the recipe comes from my Norwiegen mother-in-law. Angie is bringing Abbie in her adorable lady bug costume. I will post pictures later.

Thursday we will be decorating the cookies. Megan promised to help since most of the cookies are for her friends at her job. Anyway, by the time Friday gets here I will be wiped out. All of this busyness (is that a word? makes sense to me) is a nice diversion from the liberal media and the election.
We filled out our ballots on Sunday, and they were mailed this morning. No waiting in line this year. Next week I will have either a really great birthday or a really depressing one. Either way I am going to Fuddruckers for dinner on Thursday.

Miss Molly

Here is the update on the new kitten. I spoke to Judy this morning, she has named her Molly Mouse, Dad calls her Miss Molly Malone. They are still bottle feeding her. Molly has taken a shine for Dad. She climbs up his leg and sits in his lap and goes to sleep. Judy said she hasn't pooped yet. I told her check under her bed (where Molly hides), and bet she finds the poop. So I guess Dad has a new friend who hasn't heard all of his stories. Check Megan's blog for a picture of Molly.
