really?

it's been since sunday and i haven't updated yet?

good grief. sorry y'all.

i haven't downloaded pictures yet - i guess i should be doing that now. so that they are done before i start taking october pictures! i like to download everything at the end of a month so that my memory card is blank at the first of each month!

anyway - this week has been pretty relaxing. we've been able to come home each night (except tonight) and just have family time. it's been so nice.

saturday we got our hay bales (thanks, april, for getting ahold of trey to get him to bring them and to trey for bringing them by!!) and let mary peyton pick out her pumpkins. the scarecrows are out and i even made a new arrangement (this was a FIRST!) for my front door. i'll take pictures tomorrow when i get home from work and post them when i download (which will have to be tomorrow because i DO need that memory card cleared!!!).

of course in about a month, the outside of our house will be all fall and the inside will be completely Christmas. yes, we decorate for Christmas at the beginning of november. and prior to that (yes, october) i will wrap presents. so when december gets here, we are able to focus on what Christmas is all about - and it's not the hustle and bustle of the holidays - it's about the birth sweet little Jesus - our Savior!

happy fall, ya'll! and merry Christmases are just around the corner (right, ash?)!
