It hasn't helped that me and both my little boys have been sick all week. Or that Baby P has pink eye. Or that he's waking up ridiculously often at night. Each morning I am waking up not refreshed but still having to go into battle with a needy baby and an independent toddler. (Yes, at least for tonight, I would characterize it as going into battle.) And oh yes, and the holidays are coming up. Yikes!
I keep thinking about the Darius Rucker song, "it won't be like this for long..." and hope that my run-down state of being will pass sooner rather than later. In the midst of it all, I am finding time for my new just-for-me activity - graduate school! I started working toward my Masters of Art in Christian Education this fall and I love it. My first class this semester is New Testament 2 and every day it's a struggle for me to set it aside and focus on everything else in my life because I just want to keep studying! My first paper is due this weekend and the bigger major paper is due in about 3 weeks...hopefully it won't be added to the list of things that are kicking my butt!
But enough complaining from me. I know my problems are nothing compared to many others. So send up some prayers for those people tonight and enjoy these pictures of our outdoor adventures this week. I love cold fall days!!

| It's tough wrangling these boys still for a picture but Gramma got them! |

 |
| What is going on here? Why am I wearing a hat that's too big and Gramma's gloves? |
