Halloween Feast

Jack-o-lanterns

Family Night Activity

I was too busy helping everyone else to be able to even start one.

Oh, it's the first snowfall of the winter...

Found myself putting on the Carpenter's Christmas Music to listen to so that I could enjoy their rendition of "The first snowfall of the winter".

Fingerprinted at the Police Station today

Some may know, others may not...about 2 months ago Valesca had her bike stolen while she was at work. She rode her scooter to work, and then it got stolen. Her bike is her transportation to and from work, so we were praying that we would be able to get her bike back...and today our prayers were answered in a very interesting way. Our neighbor called this afternoon and told me her son's scooter had recently been stolen, but she had put her phone number on the bottom of the scooter and had received a phone call from the police to pick it up. She thought that maybe we could try to see if Valesca's bike had been turned in as well. After Valesca came home from school we went to the Police station to check it out. We gave a description and they brought out a scooter and a bike. The scooter wasn't hers, but to our amazement, it was her bike and it had been turned in last Thursday! She opened the bike lock to prove that it was indeed hers. We are so blessed to be able to get it back. What a wonderful set of events. - I had to give the Police my drivers license, sign some papers and be fingerprinted before we could take the bike home. I had better watch myself now that I know I am in their system.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Elijah had his last soccer game on my birthday. I told him to have fun, but he could try and get a goal just for me for my birthday. He surprised me by getting FIVE goals! Way to go!

Brad has had the flu this week. Today is his birthday, and he still doesn't feel too good. Happy Birthday sweetie!
