October is here, hooray! It's my favorite [along with November and December] (: We've been busy. Like really busy, but we're still chuggin' along...or somethin' like that. Much has been done at the house, and much has yet to be done at the house. Mike has been working super hard to rebuild the laundry / mud room this week! The aluminum siding is coming off, windows are coming out and paint is going up this week / weekend. The floor man is working this week [we should have a brand new kitchen floor today -- we decided to use the old wood in there to patch the other places in the house so there's only one room with new wood...] and the electricians and HVAC people are coming out to finish up their work! That means we'll not only have fans that work, but we'll have heating and air too! And, we've got SQUISHED GRINCH GREEN on the walls!! Green is my favorite color [as if you didn't know...] Our bedroom is "squished grinch green" as Mike calls it -- and I LOVE it!

Thanks dad (:

And...this past weekend is my absolute favorite weekend of the year. That's why we got married this weekend two whole years ago (: First, it's the Lauren's Hope Race and Aunt Het. Go ahead and mark your calendars for next years LHF 5K .. it's the 10th anniversary and it would mean the world to me for you to be there.
This year after the race we got to spend the day with Melbug helping her move into her new place! We had a good time haulin' stuff in and helpin' her set things in their new homes.

Happy 74th birthday Honey!

What better way to celebrate than with hamburgers and cookie-cake?

Happy TWO years to the sweetest, most wonderful husband ever. 

Phil. 1:3 [the msg]

Every time you cross my mind, I break out in exclamations of thanks to God. Each exclamation is a trigger to prayer. I find myself praying for you with a glad heart. 

Here's to many, many more happy anniversaries (:
