Happenings

We have been busy as usual. This last weekend we went up to Portland and saw Paul's brother's place, then headed out to Gresham to see some friends and their two day old baby girl, and finished our time in Gresham with a surprise birthday party for Paul's dad's 50th birthday.

Church continues to go very well. We went to dinner at a family’s house this last Monday and had a great time getting to know them better. The pastor and his family are always very encouraging and supportive.

This week is National Young Readers Week. We are celebrating it in many different ways, but one thing we did yesterday was host celebrity readers (aka: parents!). My class had so much fun getting the room ready, laying out a red carpet, setting up a reception and escorting each reader in. I can't wait to do it again next year!

I have today off from school thanks to Veterans Day. I can't really upload pictures very easily from our desktop computer, but I will try to put a few up when Paul gets home with the laptop tonight.

Side note = everyone always talks about how fall is their favorite season. With all the pretty colors, warm fuzzy clothes, and warm drinks who wouldn't like fall?! But I just have to say that when it pours for hours and you leave for work in the dark and return home from work in the dark it is hard to love fall sometimes.
