The start of a new year!

I know it has been a very long time since I have posted! Sorry! I know that you are looking at the title of this post and thinking, "She must not know we are still in Aug." To our family it does feel like a new year. With school starting and going back to work. It is almost like starting a new year. I have to say, we had a great summer but I always like to get back to work. I need a schedule!!! We have so much going on. Brent has went back to school! After he gets his degree here at APSU he (or you could say "we") will be going to seminary. Keep him in your prayers. Pray that he will be able to work full time, go to school at night, and keep teaching our Sunday School class. He defiantly has a full plate. Pray for Faith and Will, they are having a hard time with not being able to spend as much time with him as they are use too. Will has started football. This will keep me very busy! He has practice 3 times during the week a hour and a half long and games on Saturdays. While he practices Faith and I work on her homework. She is not very thrilled about having to go to his practices. She still have not found what she wants to do. My work is going great. We have a great class. The last couple of weeks has flown by so fast. I can't believe that it is almost Sept. Although I LOVE the Fall season. I can't wait to decorate for fall. I love the smells of Fall, my friend Shelly got me a fall scented candle and I have burned it a couple of time already. I also keep checking WMart and waiting for the fall creamers, pumpkin pie spice is the best! This is also my favorite time to take pics of the kids playing in the leaves. Well now you know that I love fall and can't wait for it to come. This post was really about our new year but I got a little side tracked. Well, now that you know what my favorite season is what is yours and why? One more reason I like Fall, I get to wear sweatshirts and go and watch football games. Okay, that was 2 and you did read that right. I like football. Any kind, Will's games, Pro, or college. Sorry no pics this time. I do promise some this Fall!

Our Vacation

We are back from our trip. We went up to MO. We stayed at a cabin in Shell Knob on Table Rock Lake. But we traveled into Branson most days. Here are some pic of Faith. She got really brave and got out on the tube and also swam in the lake. This first picture she is surfing.

Water balloon fight! Brent and Faith on one side and Ben and Will on the other side.

We had a good time. We stayed at the Cabin with his Sister Kourtnee and her family. Two night his dad and Jeannie stayed with us and then another 2 nights his mom and Linard came and stayed. It was fun but I'm glad to be home. I really missed my showers with water pressure and my own bed.
