A bit of heart drama, some Obama and a lot of missing my Momma!

Last week.. phew! It's over; in the past... DONE! Thank You, LORD! My heart was in so much turmoil. The things I was tangled up in are things I won't get into on here. I have been extensively seeking God's Word and it's healing time from here. I did, unfortunately, get a major canker soar on the inside of my bottom lip. This was by far the worst one I have experienced. Canker sores are brought on by intense stress. This was a good reminder to calm down and in the words of Karyn Shauan, "Save the drama for your momma." In this case I won't save it, yet give it to Christ.

On Tuesday night I went over to a friends house to play a card game, "president." As if losing wasn't enough of a drag, we all saw the outcome of the most-anticipated election. I nearly lost it when I saw that Obama had 200 electoral votes. Well, it's inevitable... Change is a comin! Who knows what it will look like. I will now turn my doubts into prayers for our new President. Congrats Barak Obama.

It always happens this time each year. I begin to miss my family. I guess it's the beginning of the holiday season and I just want a hug from my parents and siblings. I miss you guys so much!! I can't wait to see you over Christmas.

Well as things are rapidly changing in life... here are some pictures of some other things that are rapidly changing as well. These pictures were taken in the span of one week.. crazy, huh? So beautiful:)

White Light Night

Last night we held our first annual, "White Light Night". We had about 15 youngsters from our neighborhood come out for several hours to enjoy hot dogs, pop corn, a movie, and of course.. CANDY! We prayed earlier in the week for what we should do in place of Halloween. We lit up our front porch and courtyard, started a fire and had a blast. Here are some pictures from the night.

Then this morning, after a two hour game of soccer, Dave, Roeger and I played a practical joke on our friends...

But I guess Dave and Katie didn't get the last laugh!
