A full week, but a fun week.

TGIF!
The past 2 weeks have been CR-AZY busy.
And, it isn't going to slow down this weekend!

Here is a snapshot of the crazy-ness Instagram style!

Red Ribbon Week dress up day & my cute red Target shoes.
Kate had lunch bunch at preschool. She was SO excited. I left a note in her lunch.
Kate got her preschool pictures back. Yay! She smiled!
Almost everyday after school I have a bowl of cereal as a snack.
I did this as a kid & still do it as an adult. I LOVE cereal.
Orange Sunflowers turn the water pink. Claire loves that!
Fun Halloween stuff. Getting Boo'd, Apple Cobbler, Pumpkin shirts & cat ears!
I was in charge of cupcakes & cupcakes toppers for Grammy's 100th Birthday Party.
I made my favorite, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes
We were out of town all weekend & then came back Sunday afternoon & went straight to our friends Pumpkin Carving party. Like always, Kevin carved a zucchini from our garden.
Yummy "Eyeballs" that I made for our Halloween Party.
On Tuesday, we headed into San Fran to go to the IJM (International Justice Mission) benefit Dinner. It was a beautiful night in the city.
The dinner was held at the beautiful Fairmont Hotel.
If you are not familiar with IJM, check them out.
They are a wonderful organization that helps rescue people from slavery & human trafficking.
There were about 800 people at the Dinner.
Right before dinner, they told us they had a surprise for us.
The FRAY happened to be in the city that day & wanted to play for us!!
What the what?!?! So awesome.
They sang 2 songs, How to Save a Life:
And then they sang their new song, Heartbeat.
Have you heard that song before? If not, here is your chance. I video taped their performance! Such an awesome song.

Me & my younger sister after the dinner:
It was a fun night, but my feet were SO sore for 2 days after. Walking a total of a mile in the hilly streets of San Fran in cheap (but cute) Payless shoes really does a number on your feet. Ouch.

Now that Halloween is over, it is time for Thanksgiving decorations!
This weekend, Kevin and I are reading scripture at one of my sister's best friends weddings.
I have been practicing my verse, Philippians 4:4-9.
Hope you all have a great weekend.
Ours is filled with a Rehearsal Dinner, a Wedding, House Guests & some photo shoots!

  1. Just had to share that Phil 4:4 is what God has used to get me through Nate's death. He has taught me so many lessons through that scripture and what it means even in life's worst circumstances. I just love that you will get to read it at a wedding and will be thinking of you and that scripture all weekend.

    Hugs,
    Trisha

  5. One time The Fray played at my church before they were famous because they're from the Boulder area. It was AWESOME! They played Over My Head, I think.

  7. Wow! Happy 100th to your Grammy. That is something to celebrate. Cute cupcake toppers!

    I'm a cereal girl too. I have a bowl every night a few hours after dinner. I stay up really late so it holds me over.

    Happy Friday. Enjoy the wedding.

  17. I'm excited to share my incredible herpes journey here!
    After many years of ineffective medical treatments, countless prayers, and fasting, God led me to Dr. OLIHA .
    I stumbled upon Dr. OLIHA African traditional herbal remedies online, and people's positive testimonials gave me hope.
    I reached out to him, ordered the herbal cure, and he guided me through the process.
    After 2 weeks of treatment, I was completely cured of both HSV 1 and HSV 2. Hospital tests confirmed I'm herpes free!
    I retested 2 months later at another hospital, and the results were still negative!
    Dr OLIHA changed my life, restoring my health and dignity. I'm forever grateful and urge anyone struggling with herpes to contact him for their own herbal cure. His remedies truly work!
    Anyone can reach Dr. OLIHA via email at oliha.miraclemedicine@gmail.com

  18. I was diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) four years ago. For over two years, I relied on prescription medications and therapies, but unfortunately, the symptoms continued to worsen. My breathing became more laboured, and I experienced increasing fatigue and shortness of breath with even minimal activity.Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic.Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My breathing became easier, the tightness in my chest eased, and I felt more energetic and capable in my daily life. Incredibly, I also regained much of my stamina and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with IPF, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.
