This and That


Many of you have requested to see a picture of the wonderful man that God has brought into my life. So, tonight, after he finished making supper for us so that I could get going on my schoolwork, I convinced him to let me take a picture of him.

Yesterday we spent the day shopping with Rachel and her friend Julie. We had a great time! The weather was absolutely beautiful - not too hot and not too cold. Levi was with my friend Sue and her family so we could really focus on some time with the girls. I got some new clothes for the upcoming cooler temperatures, which is always a plus as I often go into the dressing room with about 10 things and come out with nothing because the clothes look cute on the hanger but not on me.
