It's almost over

November that is. I cannot believe how time is flying. We have been so crazy busy this month with no end in sight. Church keeps us hopping. Phillip just got back from going to Chicago to get a bus. I have been working and we have been enjoying developing relationships with new friends. It has been amazing. We have been here 3 months and it seems like we have been here forever. It is so apparent that God has placed us here. What an awesome feeling.

We have celebrated all of our birthdays now. We actually had Kaylee's last weekend because she wanted to ride horses and we thought it would be warmer inn November. We were wrong but the kids had a blast. We also roasted hot dogs and made smores. It was a hit. Pics to come. We are having a wonderful time and Christmas is comimg and that is my favorite time of year. I usually have all my Christmas shopping done by now and I think I have maybe 4 presents. Luckily we have decreased our number of gifts by drawing names or just buying for kids. We are trying to keep in perspective why we celebrate Christmas.

On another note, I asked Kaylee what she wanted Santa to bring her. She said she wasn't going to tell me because she wanted me to be surprised too. Boy was she going to be surprised. We have gotten her to agree that Santa has deeper pockets than we do and to ask for a playhouse that we got on sale. Have a great Thanksgiving if I don't post again before then.
