I got up at 5:24, thinking as I got up that I have a very busy day today!
I cooked a pound of bacon this morning and a 5 pk. of biscuits. Afterwards I put a Mexican mix roast in the crockpot. I already have the buttermilk, eggs, and butter sitting out so when I start my cake they will be at room temperature.
Before starting the cake I went back into the bedroom and began working on my lesson. I am making the cake for a missionary dinner and activity this evening, and tomorrow is the day I teach Relief Society.
This afternoon I baked a pumpkin cake and then when I went to do the cream cheese frosting I realized I had forgotten to take out the cream cheese to soften it. I took out two packages of cream cheese and then went to take a shower while it began to soften.
This evening we attended the ward activity and dinner put on by the ward missionaries. Rosie Lauritzen and Theresa Hein did the decorating and did a beautiful job. They had bales of hay set up and decorated for a photo op and the tables were decorated with fall decor.
James called Owen Peeler this morning and offered to bring he and Donna dinner from the party this evening. We ate and were sitting at our table when the program started. We happened to be sitting right in front of the podium and microphone so it would have been very obvious for us to get up and leave. I was nervous during the entire program thinking about the Peeler's waiting for dinner and how they go to bed early. Finally the program was over and we could fill some plates of food for the Peeler's. Chuck Crane insisted on helping us even though he had one arm in a sling.
When we got to the Peeler's it was 6:30 and had been dark for some time. We apologized for being so late and explained why we couldn't leave earlier. Owen invited us to sit down and visit but we said no, we would leave so they could eat. He didn't argue and we said our goodbyes.
Back at home James did my cake dishes and the crockpot which cooked dinner for Jared Ammon. I worked on laminating three handouts for my lesson. James finished in the kitchen and came into the bedroom to walk and listen to "The Queen and the Knave."
