Harvest Party 2018


On Saturday, October 20th, we had our church Harvest Party at Cold Springs Park.  It was probably one of the nicest days that we ever had for a Harvest Party weather wise!  Just perfect!  I really liked the different venue that we had as well.  Lots of sunshine and open field to play games, a playground, a pavilion with tables and places to set up our tables, bathrooms - it was a great location.
This is Grant - he is our worship pastor's son and he went with me on the hayride. :)


We had a good turnout for the event - of course, we want everyone to come and enjoy the fellowship with our church family!



For our Harvest Party, we do pots of chili with cheese, sour cream, onion and tortilla chips.  Cookies, coffee and hot cocoa for dessert.  Yum!









For the kids and teens, we do a pumpkin decorating or carving contest.




Some of the church members had fun games for the kids to play too.




Everyone brought candy and after our costume judging contest for those 11 yrs and younger, they went to every person to trick or treat for candy.







Larry brought two pinatas for the kids - they had a blast with those!







We did a hayride for the teens and then a hayride for the kids.





Wonderful afternoon with our church family!

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz.
