Well, what a few weeks this has been. Summer is gone! Fall slipped right in and the leaves came and went. We had some beautiful foliage this year. Driving to and from work seemed to be the only time I had to see some of it. And we've already had our first snow of the year. Hopefully you can see those little snow flurries in the picture.
Baby Cooper arrived on October 6, weighing in a 9lbs 2 oz...He had his doctor visit yesterday and he's at 13 lbs. Cute little guy too. Colton, Marissa and Christian have taken to him very well, and especially Christian is very protective of him. I was able to snap this pic Saturday afternoon while the Summey's were visiting. Definately a house full there!
Paula is doing well, with her pregnancy, and we are planning her baby shower for December 20. We are all very excited about the new baby girl! She has been very busy doing shows, making pottery and so much more! I do not know how she does everything. She has so much inititive, and drive; with little Owen and working full time. We are so blessed to to have Kevin who is so dedicated to his family. I know he's a great help to her.
You may have noticed in the picture of Mike's family, the Wii Fit box..Boy o boy o boy...I started on it last friday night. I really have to work on this! It's fun and the time flies when you are at it! but I know it's going to be a great tool to help me get into shape! But I'll have to keep the bottle of motrin close at hand for all those sore muscles!
On another Wii note, Colton and Marissa are becoming stars at Wii!. Colton often scores over 200 on bowling and Marissa's high this week is 186! boxing is another favorite, with tennis coming on board as well.
And we have survived yet another Presidential Election. Though my candidates did not win, we must accept the results and pray for our President whoever is in office. Charles Stanley has a great little card that offers things to pray for the president and other officials. You can probably find this on his web site.
But we know that God is in control of it all!
