The Latest

I seem to draw a blank of what to blog about so I will share the random things the Frederiksens have been up to.

1. On Saturday night Darin and I went out on a date. He wanted to take me to a place called Fast Lane. Oh, baby I had a wake up call. It is a indoor race car track similar to Boondocks only faster and more furious. We ended up in a heat with some other FURIOUS racers that surely have been there several times before. I was lapped by some of them twice! I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into when I was told to put a headsock on and a helmet, not to mention a neck brace. But later while racing as I smashed into the side wall I was glad that I followed directions. It was intense, but so much fun.





2. Also on Saturday was our Super Saturday for the 10 Mile ward. It was a combined event with my old ward, Cherry Lane ward so it was so much fun to know everyone there and talk and craft with all my friend. Thank you to my good husband for willingly taking the kids and letting me play. The only thing he asks me when I get home is "Honey, is that all you did?" But my reply is always the same with "No, I got a lot of talking done and ate a yummy lunch." That takes a lot of time to, right?

3. We are now finishing off our Halloween sugar cookies from last FHE and loving them. It is a BIG tradition for those orange, sprinkly pumpkins to be baked a few weeks into October. This year they seemed tastier than ever. I have learned that each cookie doesn't need to look like Im taking it to a bazaar. Letting go is good...those cookies are a work of art all decorated by the kids. But I promise that it doesn't change the taste, not one bit!

That's all for now
