Shopping in all of the glorious fall decorations!
Tired from walking! (and following me around shopping)

Wisconsin

We are going to Green Bay, WI this weekend with Bethany and Caleb. I am the most excited about the harvest festival in Cedurburg we are going to Saturday! The website said we will be enjoying...... "Farmer's Markets, Live Music, Scarecrow Contest, Grape Stomp Contest, Apple Bobbing Contest, Grape Spitting Contest, Grilled foods, and food courts, Arts On The Avenue, Pumpkin Carver, Hayrides, Kids Korner, and much more."

Sounds amazing, right?!?!??!

The boys are obviously the most excited about the dallas cowboys playing at greenbay sunday night. :-) That will be fun too.

Pictures to come soon!

Fall Beauty

I have been inspired to post some pretty pictures of fall foliage. Obviously, not here in Texas, but I thought they were breath taking.

Back Home

We are back from Florida! It was a great trip.........just wish we could have stayed longer! Time sure flies when you are having fun.

Happy 7th Birthday Jesse Lee

It's hard to believe we are in August already! In just a few weeks Jacob will be back at school teaching. I really hope one of these days I will get to enjoy the summer off with him! In the mean time, I am thankful for where God has me.

We are counting down the days till we go to Florida to see Trey & Rachael! Only 7 more days. I am anxious to be on the beach again!

Last weekend we celebrated Jesse's birthday at the water park. He is such a little angel. Well, not always....... but most of the time. :-)

Eating chocolate cupcakes with gummi worms on top. He thought this was so hilarious.

Morning Meditations by John Piper

Do everything in the name of Jesus.

"Whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus." Colossians 3:17

"The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, 'Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!'" Luke 10:17

Do everything with a sense of dependence on the power and authority of the Lord Jesus. Do everything with a view to Jesus being honored in it. Do everything with a view to others being helped by Jesus in it.

Can Jesus be more pervasive than this in our lives - that we do everything in His name?

My first attempt at a patio garden
