praise: the leaves are bagged and ready to go tomorrow.
prayer: my step-grandfather (ralph) and uncle (jim) are in icu with heart problems.
playfulness: just because we have no trees, does not mean we have no leaves. we bagged 8 bags and one compost can worth of leaves today. i'm just glad it is done. my brother-in-law was kind to rake them while he was up this past weekend.
i'll try to post pictures now. i tried earlier today and i couldn't get the program to work.
okay, so it's still not working...so on to plan b. follow this link to see the pics from november.

26 November 2007
praise: i have a few to post today.
1. dalton needed a winter coat. we have his 18-24 one that he has worn since last winter, and then we have a 3t. landon jumped that much in one year. dalton is too skinny to wear
the 3t. thankfully, my sister had a 2t.
2. my sister also had a 2t suit for dalton to wear for the upcoming wedding.
3. a co-worker of dave's gave us a twin bed with mattress. we needed the mattress now, but we were able to put the bed frame away until #4 needs it! we have never had to buy a bed frame for our kids!
4. i had a big blunder when paying a bill online. thankfully, i have been able to get some of the fees reversed!

to Himself.
