"So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun." Ecclesiastes 8:15

An update on life...

We have been so busy....with so many things I should have been blogging about!!!

A quick catch-up....
We had a great weekend in Kansas City.  Saturday I went with Kodi's other bridesmaids to look for new dresses for the wedding.  They had picked out super cute dresses before, but now that I will be about 8 months pregnant at her wedding, said dress was definitely not going to fit me anymore.  So we found another dress (that also comes in maternity) and I think they will be beautiful.  Although Kodi looking beautiful will be the main event! :)  Saturday night we went out to eat and to a comedy show with John Reep.  He was the guy in the Ford commercials, who said, "That thing got a Hemi in it?"  I really didn't remember those commercials...but his show was soooo funny.  We laughed the entire time! 

The next weekend the Outreach ministry that we serve on at church, hosted a "Trunk-or-Treat"/Fall Festival at church.  If you've never heard of trunk-or-treat ( I hadn't), people come and park at the church, and decorate their car trunks with a theme (i.e. favorite sports team, fishing, 70's, etc.).  Then the kids go trick or treating at each car.  We had other games, decorating cookies, a cake walk, decorating pumpkins, and a hay maze. We had a great turn out with lots of people from the community.  We were really happy with how everything turned out (even though it was a lot of work) and are excited about expanding it for next year! 

It seems like the rest of life has been filled with other church events, youth group planning, and work.  I have work off tomorrow for Veteran's Day and we are having a "girls weekend".  My sister Kristen is coming up from Arkansas, and we are meeting up with my mom and sister Carrie in Wichita for some shopping, time together, and of course some time to spoil Zoe!  We've been looking forward to this...we don't get a lot of time to hang out...should be so fun! I will have to make sure to take lots of pictures!
