Well, it's been awhile, like.....2 months :S sorry to the few that follow my blog! Life has been speeding ahead of us and we've been stuck playing catch up, phew and Im exhausted! We have had so many things going on and lots of changes so there for alittle while I was without a computer here at home. Thad has officially taken over the youth pastor position and got his office together, and while our laptop was being fixed ( thank Aaron!!) He had our desktop at the church. We had a few things going on in September with the students ( Labor day fireworks, picnic, see you at the pole, and regular services ) I love all of our students and I am so happy and proud that they have chosen to be faithful and not follow the crowd. This past Saturday we did an alternative to Halloween bonfire at Thad's dad's house and had a really good time! You know how Thad's obsessed with making fires, so this was right up his alley :) I have also had alot going on with the ladies ministry and feel like I could be doing better than I am with planning and everything. I feel like sometimes that we are constantly being reactive in our lives instead of being proactive ( maybe a post on this later) and its driving my type A personality nuts!!
So, besides ministry busyness, we have been trying to get some family time in there too- we have been playing out in the leaves alot lately, and the kids LOVE it! Lately Elsie has been obsessed with picnics ( thanks alot mickey mouse clubhouse) so we have picnics ALOT at our house :)
Also, the kids have been doing watercolors and they think those things are like the greatest things on the planet!
Sticking with the arts and crafts theme- Jude still had a gift card left from his birthday so we went to walmart and let him pick out a few things- he picked a Thomas DVD ( of course ) and this stuff called moon sand......yeah. So basically it just feels like damp sand, and it makes a MESS!!
bleh, but I was thinking of tormenting a few of my friends and getting their kids some for Christmas!!! We'll see ;)
Well, I know this has been an all over the place post, but I had a lot of random stuff to share since my last post ( sorry again)
Have a good week and never, NEVER let your child walk down the aisle with moon sand at Wal-mart!!
