NOVEMBER?!??!!

I can't believe it.

But that's what I always say every time I turn the page on the calendar. Time goes by so quickly--Thanksgiving's only 3 weeks away, and Christmas is NEXT MONTH! Unbelievable.

Here are some points of interest (maybe):

1. Olivia was a darling little ducky for Halloween.

2. Nate's leaving me for a tournament in Buffalo, NY. He leaves early evening Thursday and returns late Saturday night.

3. My very dear friend Rebekah had her baby boy. Caleb was 9 lbs, 11 oz (WHOA!) and 21 inches long.

4. We're having revival meetings at our church this week. Evangelist Brownfield is preaching God's Word with passion, and the Lord has really been working on me--specifically in the area of prayer.

5. I think we're going to take Livvie to get her portraits taken next week. We're thinking about JCPenney. I've got great coupons, and we can take 3 different outfits for her. How's this sound: a nice Sunday dress, her Halloween costume, and her Michigan cheerleading outfit!

6. Nate and I have cut sugar out of our diet, starting today.

That's it, I guess.
Have a great Wednesday!

I must say that I was thinking the same thing this morning, November, no way!!
We have had good sucess with the JC Penney portraits, I hope you do to. I know ours ususally is running behind, I don't know if I pick bad times, or what. Just be prepared, when you go to pick the pics up they will have more than you ordered and ask you if you want them for more $$. It's fine as long as you know that up front. I haven't given in yet, but it's not easy! The price is great with the coupons, but you may want to look into the membership (for free sitting fees no matter how many are in the pic for 2 years) if you want to do more pics of you, Nate, and Livvie. If you do the $3.99 sheet deal, the multiple outfit deal is a great idea since you can pick as many poses as you want. Sorry, such a long post maybe you already know all this info, but I've learned as I've gone, and I hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions!

I've always heard good things about JC Penney's portrait studio. The outfits sound good too. :) Let me know how the no sugar thing works--sounds tough! Good luck!

Sounds great!!! We always did well at JCPenny...just had to wait go get in that is all. The pictures were good for the little bit of money paid.

Thanks for the info, Trisha! I'll remember that.

I think the outfits sound great. And I've had good experiences with Pennys as well.
