Sunday was a leisurely day for us...
I'm making witch dolls right now for a fall project and Rush helped me stuff them on Sunday afternoon. Things do take a little longer when he's helping, but he's just interested in so many things and loves to help.
Rush and I also baked cookies yesterday, because if you're feeling too full from all the
carbs you've eaten over the weekend, cookies are the way to fix that, right? Rush is really happy standing on a chair at the kitchen counter, stirring (mostly stirring the bowl of C
hex mix he was eating) and sorting through the bread box. And he
loves smelling all the spices in the pantry.
In a rare event that has never, ever happened for us, we spent the entire weekend in town and didn't eat out one single meal. It's not like we're spending every meal at five star restaurants, but there's always at least one trip to Taco Bell or a similar quick, 'we don't feel like cooking on Friday night' meal. So of course to reward ourselves we ordered pizza on Sunday and got whatever gigantic oval pizza
gimmick that Pizza Hut is currently pushing. (NFL commercials, your advertising worked on us. Let's hope we don't get to the point of wallpapering our house in Bud Light...) The whole point about all of this is that the pizza was so big that we split the ingredients down the middle and for once in my life I got to order the pizza that I always want but no one else would ever consider ordering: black olives, mushrooms, and onion.
Mmmm.
Trent ended his evening in the usual fashion, falling asleep in the living room. In his defense, he was still recuperating from unloading an entire 18-wheeler full of pumpkins on Saturday morning for the pumpkin patch at Rush's school. If our cats start snuggling with us, we know cooler weather is arriving.

I'm glad Trent escaped unscathed. I don't trust gourds or melons, ever since that one near death experience...
