We made homemade paint last week. It was so easy! You just take water and flour and cook it until it is thick and then add food coloring. We also added a little dish soap so it would dry glossy. Rachel loved painting. She painted all over herself after she did a few papers. She also really likes to color and draw. I caught her yesterday scribbling all over a library book with a pen. To see more pictures of her and paint and homemade
play dough check out on online picture album.

So, I got my first two piano students this week! I am so happy. I have explored all options of making cash, even delivering newspapers at 4 am. Maybe I won't have to do that! Anyway, I am still crazy about food storage and cooking. This week I am making sour dough bread from a starter I made today. It just grows on your counter and you have to feed it everyday! CRAZY!
Eric is doing well. School has been really good and he gets to come home for lunch everyday, which is great since he works every night until nine. He likes his security job, but says it is boring. He works for Union Bay (the clothing company), basically he just walks around and makes sure the
building is secure.
This weekend was general conference (our bi annual church meeting from Salt Lake) I was just thinking how blessed we are to have such technology as I was sitting in my sweatpants listening to the prophet. It was a great meeting and I am totally inspired to be a better person in so many ways.
Eric works in the evening so Trish, Onica, and Ilya came over to have dinner and hang out. It was so fun, Trish showed me how to roast a chicken. (which we laughed at the thought of her teaching me how to prepare meat!!) We painted our nails. This picture is Onica and Ilya reading Rachel her bedtime stories. They are so good with Rachel.
This is Rachel in her Halloween PJs. This was actually Halloween morning. We were dancing to the Monster Mash and other great Halloween tunes!
Here we have Rachel trick or treating with her friend Ilee and also eating the candy. We also went to the community center were they had pizza and carnival games. It was super fun!
