Small Group Outing

We are having BEAUTIFUL fall weather - what better way to enjoy it than pumpkin picking with good friends? We met some couples from our church small group at Freeman Farms (Uncle Mike came, t00). Kids and adults enjoyed the festivities - pumpkins, farm animals, and hayrides.

Play Group Fieldtrips

When Elise was about six months old, I started a play group with three other moms - four moms, four babies. About three years later, the play group now has six moms and 15 kids (with a 16th on the way)! I'd need a mathematician to tell me exactly what percent growth that is, but I know it is substantial. The kids love playing together, and the moms really enjoy each other's company as well, even if it truly chaotic. This fall, we've enjoyed two fieldtrips - one to Columbus, Indiana, (children's museum, indoor playground, and old fashioned ice cream shop) and Trafalger, Indiana, for AppleWorks. Any suggestions for other fieldtrips not far from Bloomington?

Look at those tiles!

In our bible study, the question came up - how has your spouse changed since you married him/her? I answered, my husband has become such a handy man around the house. Well, our recent project goes beyond handyman. Wes and my dad retiled our entryway and did such a beautiful job! Thank you, Wes and Dad, for giving up your Labor Day weekend to do this project! I love it. I love you!
