October Fun

We went jeepin' in the woods of Whitleyville, Hermitage Springs and Norht Springs with the Kennedy's on Sunday, October 14, 2017. We spent the whole day in territory that we did not know existed. To see more, click HERE

We went to church on Sunday, October 15 and cleaned the jeep from the day before. It rained, so no set ups.
I cooked dinner on Monday, October 16th while Stroker waxed the jeep.
We purposely bought an old rugged jeep so we wouldn't have to worry about dirt, scratches, or dings... but now he is out there putting a coat of wax on it. 😕
I made taco soup while the employees worked on Tuesday, October 17. I am loving the time this free's up for us.  I need to get the office area cleaned up too.

We had church on Wednesday, October 18, 2017.
I cleaned at moms on Friday, October 20, 2017. I got a whole bunch of towels and washcloths to bring home.                                  Thanks Mom 😊
I made a meatloaf on Saturday, October 21, 2017.
I was on the schedule for breakfast at church on Sunday, October 22, 2017.
It rained on Monday, October 23rd. It was a good day to stay in bed, but Brooke had to get to school (she was tired and sleepy)
I cooked at dinner at home and we stayed in since it was a yucky day.

We had to set up for a church trunk or treat before church on Wednesday, October 25, 2017. 
Thursday, October 26, 2017 marked the seven year anniversary of Darlene's cancer. SEVEN years!  God is so Good.
We went to Murfreesboro Thursday to watch the Seigel / CHS football game (and to visit with the Brooke's)😉
It's no secret that I don't get into sports. If I am at a ballgame, it's to socialize.


I called Daddy Friday morning to wish him a happy birthday!
Bridgett and I went to "cookin' on the square" on Friday, October 27, 2017.
It was good, just extremely crowded. 
We had a set up in Sparta Friday too.
Winter arrived on Saturday, October 28th. It was only 40°
We had set ups scheduled and thank goodness we had help because it got us in out of the cold a lot faster.
The high for Sunday, October 29th was only 38°.
There was snow flakes falling when we got up. We went to daddy's birthday party after church.




 We made a Halloween delivery on Monday, October 30th. That gets two of them ready to go. We rushed to get set up on October 31st so that we could get to our church for Trunk or treat.

We also took the top off the jeep since the weather is going to be so good the next several days.
I went to moms again on Thursday, October 12, 2017.
We tossed all the fake trees, found some nostalgic stuff and found stuff that warmed my heart to know that mom kept them.

Thanks mom for the extra towels and washcloths. 😊 
 I'll keep all these clothes covered until I can get it dropped off at the Help Center
