I cannot believe it is October already, seems just like yesterday Erik and I moved up to Logan, yet here we are 5 months later already braving the cold, and just hoping the snow can hold off for another month and at least!
My calling in our ward is in enrichment; we have "interest groups" which are; exercise group, COOKING group (which I am over), a family group, gospel study and homemaking. It's really great, the girls are encouraged to attend one a month, they can choose which one.
For September I did peach jam. Only one girl showed up, (thanks Megan!) but it was a blast, neither of us had ever made jam but it turned out great and had a lot of fun chatting and getting to know each other.
It turned out great!
Last weekend our friends Chase and Meagan were in town; Chase and Erik went to SLC for a car auction, and Meagan and her sister Melissa were making their sisters' wedding cake and invited me to go help! It was a lot of fun, and took us forever, they even started 1/2 hour before I got there! The top of the cake was freezing but it was already so beautiful!
Cute Meagan, Melissa's baby Avery and I (Melissa and Meagan are identical twins so you can get an idea what she looks like!)
After a hard days work we went to Cafe' Sabor for the first time and it was to DIE for.
Erik's mom Lynette's birthday was on the 30th. Crystal and Karli put together a surprise party for her at Sonora Grill in Ogden, it was so delicious, and a great party.
Happy Birthday Lynette!
On the way down I took this picture and then my camera died (so I had to snag the picture of Lynette from Crystal) but I couldn't believe how great it turned out! It was so beautiful driving through the canyon that day.

Mmm... and boy was that jam good! =) I love the pics. We'll have to print them out and write something about the activity so everyone knows how much fun we had without them! j/k By the way, that cake looks amazing! Did you guys do all that detail work on the side? That's amazing! You'll have to teach me sometime.
i'm already craving cafe sabor...we need another visit to logan,don't we. yummy. i wish i could thank you enough for helping us with the cake...i'd pay you a bit of our profit if we had one (family = free) haha. but really thanks.
Hooray for October! I'm so excited for fall! I'm still sad I missed the jam making; maybe next time I won't fall asleep right before :)
That cake is SO pretty!!! Wow I wish I could make a cake like that. remember when we were gonna take a class and never did? Now I wish we had!
Way to go on your peach jam. I'm impressed it turned out so well on your first attempt.
I can't believe you guys have lived up here for 5 months either. I still feel like you're the new residents. We need to get back on our sunday dinners now that we are staying in town for the weekends.... hahah just kidding. i don't think I've been in town for the weekend for 3 months...
That jam was so tasty Sammy - thanks so much for all you do! Megan gave me some yesterday and love it.
