Immanuel Lights

My four day-mini vacation ended tonight with Immanuel Lights, a community lighting of the IBC Christmas tree. Kyle had to be there early for rehearsal (the kids choir performed), so we ended up being there for 2 and 1/2 hours in windy, 50 degree weather. It was really cold and my nose and ears were numb, but the kids did such a great job that it was well worth it.

Thanksgiving

"The key to life is to be greatful and give thanks for everything that happens - both the happiness and the sadness."

Happy Thanksgiving!

Harvest Festival

Today was a very busy day for us. After church we went home, had lunch then went back to help set up for the Harvest Festival. I took Kyle's costume so he could change into it, but he was having so much fun he didn't even care to get dressed up.

Pony ride? okay....lol

Middle school choir

Kyle with Pastor Rob

We never made it trick-or-treating. Kyle got enough candy from playing games at the booths and we were pooped, so we headed home and called it a night.

Pumpkins

Pumpkins from our garden! I have one more on the vine that's not quite ready yet, but should be in the next couple of weeks.

A few of my favorite things {2}

Decorating Inspiration...


I love their website and catalogs, I get some really good ideas from them. Actually, I got this one in the mail today! A nice change from the usual junk and bills.
