September already??

How is it that I have not blogged in so long...oh yeah...work. Thankfully the first sunday of church school has come and gone. We had almost 100 kids! We didn't have enough polaroid film or nametags. It was an unexpected blessing and now I am thankful for a day off.

Things are going well at work. The parents like me, the work is getting done and the juggler is coming on Wednesday for our big kick-off event. It is different working at such a large church. Everything is bigger.

That's pretty much been my life lately, unlike Alexis who has been traveling and doing fun things like going to our godson's birthday party and our niece's baptism. While she has been gone I have made some new friends which is good. Our circle of friends is growing bigger. I think the fall will be fun with parties and friends in our house. We are talking about a drive-in night and a game night. Bring on the fun!

Our newest hope is for a trip to Curacao for our anniversary next Fall. It is a great island south of Florida. This year we are just hoping to make it to Oregon. It's amazing how life has changed over the last 6 months and hopefully will change over the next year.

We'll keep you posted.

Little known fact for the day:

America's most popular board game is: Monopoly

F.A.O. Schwartz in 2000 sold a monopoly set for $100,000. What made it so expensive? Besides the 18K gold playing pieces, the money used in the game was real U.S. currency. The most expensive set ever sold according to guinness was $2,000,000. Talk about playing with your own money.

we missed you this weekend-When I told Landon Alexis was coming, he asked if you were too-then, of course, he asked if Rioux would be there as well.
