Am I a slacker or just to busy?

Ok so it's been a while since I last put anything up on my blog....so I'm going to try and condense what has happened in the last 2 1/2 months into a few brief paragraphs. Here goes...

Our camera broke and I have yet to buy a new one.. hopefully my family will get us a nice one for Xmas. The kids had a great Halloween, Kaitlyn was Dorthy from the Wizard of OZ, and Mackenzie was Tinkerbell... they were soooo cute, but you will just have to take my word for it.

As most of you know, we were trying to get on staff at the US Center for World Mission... we have been through the hiring process since Oct. 2nd and just found out that we have not been accepted...another long story but for our purposes here I won't go into it.

We have been trying to raise money to go on a short term missions trip in January...that's going ok...but not great, it might be only Aaron going unless we get another $900 in a week...we will see what the Lord provides.

I am now a MOPS table leader, and that has been going well, they all came over to my house for a pizza party..but I was feeling sick that day, go figure...the way of life...I really do love my table group.

My Wednesday night women's growth group is going slow, we are down to only four women, but we are able to have a lot of really good support and connection time so that is nice. We are going through the book of James and we find it VERY encouraging and helpful. Faith without works is meaningless.

Aaron is taking a staff position at the Refuge House of Prayer. He will be praying about 20-30 hrs a week as well as setting up the internship program and teaching on missions.

Kaitlyn is excited to be in the Christmas musical tomorrow at church...as is our entire family!! :-) I'm also excited that she is growing..she is 39 1/2 inches...just a half inch more(or some good shoes) and she will be able to ride Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, Star Tours and Sorin' over California at the Disney Theme Parks!!!!! :-)

Mackenzie... I am just amazed at how much she is growing and changing every day. She loves to were shoes, especially her sisters, and she is quickly out growing everything. She loves to run and dance and spin around, and just be involved in everything. She is my cutie pie! So adorable.

Ok well that's it for now. I will post some pictures as soon as I get a camera or my mom sends me some from hers. Love you all - peace out!
