October 2010

I am so far behind:( It's hard to even want to try to catch up, but I really want us all to be able to look back on our time at seminary and remember what life was like while we were here. A little disclaimer...I removed my blog address from my FB page, mainly because I don't have (never have had, actually) a strong desire for lots of people to read my blog...that's just not me:) I am fine with just my friends and family reading this, plus I want it to be more of a journal/scrapbook of our time here, and I want the freedom to be a little more real and authentic without feeling like I have to justify it or worry what others may think of me...haha...now that's a life lesson God continues to challenge me with on a very regular basis. :) Anyone else ever struggle with seeking the approval of man sometimes over the approval of God?!! So, if you want a more surfacy (did I make that word up?) overview, go to my Facebook page instead of here;) A look back... starting way back in October...

Totally out of order, but I am too lazy to fix it...sorry. This is the end of the night:0)








Exhausted after walking through a huge neighborhood in fabric ballerina slippers...I win the rotten mom award for that-didn't know we would be leaving campus to trick-or-treat...oops.



The 2nd annual seminary Halloween parade...love it.




Gabe

Seth




A little dancing for good measure.








Gabe's 3rd grade class

Gabe, ready for his party...he felt a little silly, since the school wouldn't allow any masks. It was so fun to see him with his class & just watch him interact. I always say Gabe totally helped me train S & J to have such good manners...he is so polite & courteous, and it's good for me to see that in action, because I have a tendency to sometimes be too hard on him & expect too much of him. Something for me to work on. Though there are times he needs to work on his attitude at home, as well:) Love my first born.

Josie wasn't afraid to jump right in & join Seth's class for the afternoon:) They were very gracious.

Seth loves this little girl in his class named Lily (in the pink). He tells everyone "Lily is very nice and she is a Christian. She has troubles with the connectors in her brain hemispheres, so I help her." My favorite thing his teacher told me at parent-teacher conferences was that Lily loves Seth because he is so kind to her.

It is so hard with Halloween costumes! This year I thought for sure David would be good to go because he had a thick monster outfit, but then we ended up trick-or-treating inside one night and he was so miserably hot! It sure is tricky to get costumes and shoes just right :) Love the update and pics!
