Another month gone...how?

Well, here I am again, another month gone by! I just don't know how that happens!! We have so enjoyed this fall weather, my favorite time of year! The days are warm and the nights are cool, great for sleeping. :) I love sitting by the window and watching the leaves fall from the trees with all their many colors. It's such a peacful time of year. The cold weather has made an appearance so we have tasted what is to come soon. I really could skip the winters all together!

Life at home has been busy with all the comings and goings of the girls. It seems we rarely have dinner as a family these days although we really do try! I guess that goes with having older children out seeking their paths in life as we continue at home raising our second family. Never a dull moment!!

We just booked tickets to Boston for Thanksgiving. We will spend a week with the family and with my husbands mom who has been unwell for the past weeks. She is nearly 85 and has been such a blessing in my life. Thank you mom!! We have other family arriving from Tampa, Fl. and hopefully our girls from Ct. I miss my little grandkids like crazy! We seem to have these famly reunions here and there with no planning so the logistics of who is camping out where is somewhat of a challenge. Jeanne and Tim, get ready for your visitors!!

Our Saturdays are full of Kids Against Hunger at the Berean Christian Bookstore Headquarters. It was a full house of volunteers today and both Larry and Aimee are exhausted after the days work. We are amazed at what God has done in such a short time with this ministry. Many mouthes will be fed as the result of so many caring people who have put their time and money out to help. Thank you to all who have blessed this ministry, we could not do this without you. If you haven't checked out the web site you should, it's on my blog side bar, and you can read Larry's blog from the home page too!

Emma continues to be such a bright star in our lives! She is so happy and full of life. :) We cannot imagine life without her and all the chattering that comes with her. LOL!! She has a busy week ahead with a speech evaluation at Children's Hospital on Monday morning and a heart echo on Tuesday morning bright and early!! She will then prepare for surgeries for her heart and then having both her tonsils and adenoids removed once cleared by the cardiologist. So we welcome your prayers for these things.

Larry will also have surgery this week for a hernia. This will take place on Thursday late AM and we are praying for a speedy recovery since he needs to work in order for us to get a paycheck. :)

I do have some photos of Emma on Halloween, but can't post them yet as they need to be put on my computer.

Off to check out some other blogs.
