Trunk or Treat is always lots of fun. We are so thankful for Nana and Mr. Jimmy who braved the cold to come hang out and play games with us. We are blessed to be a part of such a wonderful church who loves the Lord and loves His children.

First Grade Fall Party

Nathan had a great time with his class decorating pumpkins, eating spooky cookies, sharing lots of candy and treats and even trying out some monster teeth!

Noah's Preschool Fall Party

 Spiderman ready for his preschool party. He started the day by showing me some special spiderman moves.

Noah really enjoyed his first preschool party. He and Mommy were the hosts so he helped me pick out our snacks and plates and napkins for the party the day before. Then at preschool he helped me get the tables ready for everyone. He picked out a seat right beside Claire who is a happy witch and a special friend. Claire's mom told me Claire talks about him a lot and really enjoys playing with Noah. According to Claire, she and Noah have lots of pretend picnics at preschool. After singing the pumpkin song and having a special snack everyone got to line up and go down the hall with their trick or treat buckets and bags and receive treats from all the Immanuel church staff. We didn't know it but there was a spiderman twin that showed up for the party that day too.

Ethiopia

 Tekle

 Canaan, Caleb, Silas

And Corey and Sumer

I don't know how to sum it up in a post and I can't post 170 pictures at once so I chose these three to say how blessed I am to be able to visit Ethiopia and spend time with these special people.

Visit with Aunt Sumer 2012

Aunt Sumer was in the states for a week and we were blessed to be able to spend the day in Nashville with her and Nanny and Nana. Lots of fun for all at the mall, the playground, spending time at the hotel relaxing, a little shopping and eating lots of good food. Aunt Sumer even got a nap in though I didn't post a picture of that. Blessed to be able to spend the day together.

Nathan and Bayard

Sweet brothers!

Picking some things to take home.

Nathan is getting so big. We had a fun day going with Nathan's class to the Pumpkin Barn in Melber again. The weather was gorgeous and these sweet people host all the school classes for free and let them pick a pumpkin and feed them a snack and teach them all about pumpkins and gourds.
