but I feel like life is exciting....

Maybe it is due to the fact that I do not have a camera YET!!!!!!!!!!!, and I do not diligently record in words all the funny antics of these youngin's. But I do feel like our life is exciting and blogworthy....

So, my weekly updates are becoming just that. I know there are a certain few who shall remain nameless who actually do read and enjoy our comings and goings, so for you, I write this post.

We are entering Greece of ancient times in school, we feel like Patricia Polacco is living in our house since we have about 20 of her books around everywhere as we study her for this month's author. Stephanie just finished the most current collection of American Girl books, Rebekah. She loved reading about the Jewish family and their journey to this country.

Steve and I have been loving our Fireproof bible study we are a part of....it is lots of work, but well worth it in the long run. A good marriage is worth making great.

The pool is closed up and ready for the winter, we thought that might magically make it stay in the seventies instead of the nineties!!!!!!

Cooking has changed around here since we are improving our eating habits and trying to lose some inches and pounds around here. It is like a new adventure. We each are at the twenty pounds down mark....so we will keep going.

We love our church more than ever, and looking through some old photos made me see even more how awesome it is when God directs our steps and we obey.

Thanks for the update girl. I love hearing how you're doing even without the pictures! Great job on the 20 pounds down for each of you. That is awesome! I thought of you last night when I made the greek salad with the Vigo cheese. Gus loved it of course! Hope to be at your church the day after Halloween since I'm off the night before. Love ya, babe!

Thank you a thousand times for keeping up with your exciting life! I should really be blogging right now instead of commenting on blogs :) I'm proud of your little pound dropping/inch disappearing family!

Okay.......since we are doing this together, some how I missed the 20 pounds mark......sorry for not celebrating that with you!! Congrats! I'm glad I'm not the only one who is still without a camera. It motivates me to keep blogging even though there are no pictures......love the read.
