Oh, it's our families favorite time of the year! The leaves changing,the cool breeze, the fair, the pumpkin patch and of course, HALLOWEEN!! This weekend we began our fall festivities and went to the Cumming Fair. We met our friends Sandy and Tim and their adorable little girl Riley there. The kids had so much fun. They got to ride the Ferris wheel, the carousel, a Nemo ride and a huge slide. They also got to go to the petting zoo and feed the goats and even hold baby chicks. The baby chick thing was fun except that Emily is still learning the word gentle so you can imagine how the holding of a baby chick went(: Terry got his famous Turkey leg and I had to get my corn dog! The fair is so much fun but wow is it expensive.
Everything else is going great. The kids are getting so big. Madi went on a nature walk today at school and picked up all kinds of cool things in the woods. Joey had to have some work done this morning on his teeth before school. He was so brave! He loves the dentist because when they are done they give him coins to go put in the machines for toys. Emi even got a prize for waiting(: Emily has had a fun couple of weeks. She had a great time the other day putting my lipstick and mascara all over her and the bedroom carpet! She also had a blast with some powder she found under our bathroom sink. A picture of the powder incident is attached. Oh, they keep us busy but all of these things really help me to focus on what's important. It's not about the nice things you own or how clean your house is!! It's about how you impact the lives of those around you while here on earth. My family certainly impacts me daily and I can see the sweet love of Jesus shining through each one of them. I am so thankful to have the opporitunity to serve them(:
