Hello, I'm here.

Crazy days. Here's what I've been up to ...

MOPS convention in Grapevine, Texas ... incredible time to get away and hear from God personally! (another post to write, hopefully)

Feeding Eli his first solid foods (doing great!), bathing three boys at one time (E is sitting up), and moving Eli's wardrobe up to 6-9mo. clothes.

Researching vacation homes on the East coast for Mom and Dad's 50th Anniversary Vacation Shabang with the whole 35 of us ... lots of communication with the siblings ... final steps of securing an amazing location beyond my wildest dreams.

Assembling a shoebox gift for Operation Christmas Child (yes, I'm a bit early but ours will be a sample to show our MOPS group as an encouragment for them to participate).

Securing items in order to assemble Disaster Relief Kits for Operation Blessing ... again, for MOPS. Next meeting is one big outreach opportunity!

Organizing a Celebration Dinner to honor and kick-off the opening of Charis House, a new foster home hosted by Berean's very own Worship Pastor & wife ... the Christian family.

Watching the Phillies win ... most of the time.

Jumping back into ladies' Bible study at Berean ... Damsels in Distress by Martha Peace.

Restarting our community group that meets twice a month ... so excited about Grace Based Parenting by Tim and Darcy Kimmel.

Hanging out with volunteers from Tulsa, OK during the peak of the fall hurricane recovery ministry.

Attempting some fall crafts and preschoolish activities with Sam and Zach. They love it!

Whew! Sweet dreams.
