Catching up...

I'm probably about 2 weeks behind on posting.  Oh well!  Ha!  It's been a good 2 weeks though.  As far as classes go, I've really enjoyed reading through and learning Exodus the week before last.  And, then last week, we studied Joshua.  The EL class on Thursday night was about Angelology and Demonology.  Very interesting to say the least!

The week before last, I kinda snuck out of town and took a trip to Ohio to see dear friends.  Jennifer and I left earlier Thursday morning and came home last Monday.  It was such a sweet time of being with the Johnston's.  We just love and miss them a ton!  (I know we aren't the only ones!)  They really are more like family than friends.  On Friday, we went to a nearby train station and loaded up bikes to go riding.  We got on the train where we parked and took a short ride.  Then, we unloaded our bikes and rode one of the trails.  It was a beautiful day and all the leaves were changing.  We stopped somewhere along the way for a picnic.  Then, we rode the rest of the way back to where we started.  That night it rained, and we decided to get creative.  So, sometime in the night, we were ripping pallets apart in the garage.  :)

Thinking...contemplating...

Brute strength...

On Saturday, Jenn, Debby, and I went to get crafting supplies to make pallet signs.  We came back and set to work cutting, measuring, nailing, and painting.  It was really fun for a raining day!

They were sooooo meticulous!

Our finished signs!  They turned out great!

On Sunday, we all got up and went to church.  We had lunch at Chipotle.  Later that afternoon, Jenn and I carved pumpkins with the girls (and half the neighborhood:).  Sunday night, Jenn and I talked Ryan and Debby into going out while we stayed home to "babysit" the girls.  We wouldn't have had it any other way!  It was such a great time to get away and spend time with loved ones.


Carving the pumpkin!

Making the face!

Love them!!!
