Life into Full Swing





Well I see that almost 20 days has passed since my last update and a few events worthy or report have taken place. Sept 12 was the boys 7th birthday and we had a fun celebration with a few buddies in our yard ( I use that term loosely) with water balloon fight and competitive "hide and Seek." This years theme was Transformer and of course my friend Bonnie created an amazing cake. He also signed up for fall soccer and of course looks very cute in his little uniform. He does not have a clue as to how to play the game and for all of his fighting that he loves to do he really isn't terribly aggressive. This picture is the only one I have where he is actually near the ball, and if the truth be known that is only because he is doing a dribbling drill with a team mate.

He has had a great start to the new year and is very happy and doing well. I feel like we have a better grip on homework and scheduling this year and so all in all we are both functioning well.

My year got off to a busy start but I am hoping that in the next few weeks it will quiet down a bit as others take over more responsibility in the youth and children's department. That leaves me to really work on developing the women's ministry and the Bible Study that I lead. I love doing the study and love the ladies that I get to work with! I am teaching through Exodus this fall semester and then Hebrews in the Spring. I have never gotten to do this in depth of a study on a regular basis so I am very happy with my own learning curve. I have a Fall Beach retreat in 2 weekends and then another retreat just for youth of Christian workers from all over the ME. Then hopefully Caleb and I will get one last beach run ourselves end of Oct.
My Dad is coming after Christmas and we are hoping to do some new adventure while he is here as well.

So that's the scoop as of late!
