Fun Fall Weekend

I haven't posted a slideshow in awhile and couldn't decide which pictures to post, so I just had to do a slideshow. We had a fun-filled weekend! We carved/decorated pumpkins on Friday night and roasted pumpkin seeds. (I finally found a really good recipe if you're interested!) On Saturday we went to the gorge to take in the fall color and hiked about 4-5 miles. (Remember, this is Kentucky we are talking about...not flat by any means...hills, steps...) I think we wore Jordan out!! She was pretty tired by the time we got home. On Sunday we had our harvest party at church. Lance entered the chili contest and sadly did not win. We then did trunk or treat and enjoyed handing out candy to the kids. Jordan is dressed as Hermoine Granger from Harry Potter this year. (It's a bit of an obsession right now.) All in all we had a great time!!

Girls weekend away!!

Jordan & I met my mom, my sister & my niece in Indy for the weekend. We went shopping, laughed, ate, shopped, ate, laughed...well...you get the idea!! We had a blast! It was great to see them! Those weekends away are such stress relievers for all of us! I like that my niece is old enough to go with us and keep up with all of the shopping. She & Jordan are so much fun! Yet again, we made some memories!

October 15th

Today was set aside as a day of remembrance for infant and pregnancy loss by President Reagan. You won't hear about it on the Today Show. You won't read about it in the paper. But those of us that have lost babies remember. We know there are lots of babies that have been born into heaven. And we remember...

So tonight at 7:00 if you remember...light a candle.

The beauty around us...

The 1st picture is the moonbow at Cumberland Falls. We've tried to see it now 4 times (third time actually going to the falls...2 hours away!) We finally got to see it! Full moon on Saturday night was very bright and the moonbow was AWESOME! The last 2 pictures, the tobacco & sunflowers, are sights I get to see while driving around for work. Yes...I do have a beautiful drive!! And soon, it will be time for that great fall color! ((SIGH)) Some things about living here that I will miss!! Going to soak it all in!! :)
