Autumn!

The first day of autumn is today.  In Alaska, that really means it's about to snow.  I miss the colors of the east coast of the lower 48, but Alaska does have the beautiful birch trees and lots of yellow and orange, a tad of red.   Our garage organization is going to take two days, but we got a head start today.  School is moving along nicely and music lessons too - more challenges for the kids!  
I made pumpkin donuts the other morning and they were very tasty-baked, not fried.  I found a donut pan at Joann's and got it for half-price!  
I always think that things will slow down as winter approaches, but just around the corner is Missions Week  and the holidays.  Of course I will feel more like baking and hopefully sewing.   
Hubby went on his first hunting trip with some guys from church.  No moose, but I think they enjoyed themselves!

I always think we will slow down in winter too but, it also never happens here either :)

Hope you are well.
