Now It Is Fall!

September 22 was Hobbit Day. Jr. played LEGO Hobbit.

I wore my bow earrings to celebrate my sister's birthday.

The Autumnal Equinox/First Day of Fall was also on September 22. We didn't do anything except mention it.

The next day, however, Jet and I went for a drive up Kyhv Peak Road to see the beautiful Fall colors.

Gorgeous.

That day, September 23, was Great American Pot Pie Day. I made chicken pot pie and for Family Home Evening on National Family Day (also on the 23rd) we played Pictionary drawing by mouse on the computer.

Guess what the word was for this picture:

 

I yelled out, "Trogdor!" then calmly said, "Dragon," to get it right.

Pie Day (Observed)

Pie Day was on January 23. Since we were too busy eating Chinese food that day (yumm), we celebrated Pie Day (Observed) the next day.

I made Chicken Pot Pie but in actual pie form with an actual pie crust- the same crust I use for my apple pies. Yumm.

The recipe for the pie came from budgetbytes.com and I do want to make it again. It wasn't as craveworthy as some foods but I did like it.

The 24th was National Compliment Day and National Peanut Butter Day. People ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because peanut butter and jelly compliment each other. 

People in the family also complimented each other. Jeremy and I compliment each other in a lot of ways.

Celebrations Without Pictures

September 23 was Great American Pot Pie Day. I made chicken pot pie for dinner. I didn't take pictures.

September 25 was Daughters Day. I didn't realize it until my sister posted something about it. Luckily Nichole and I celebrated without realizing. She had a day off school since her school is transitioning to a hybrid schedule (part in class, part online) but the boys were at their schools.

We had some mother-daughter bonding time (with baby boy) and watched a movie together after she happily got to sleep in.

I also didn't take pictures but enjoyed my time with my daughter.
