Off the Top

For my birthday, I got a circular saw, Casablanca on DVD, and a duck call. Hopefully to go duck hunting tomorrow with G possibly coming with.

New to the pet peeves section, you can vote for your favourite peeves. Let me know what bothers you the most…

Got to get together with family yesterday to celebrate the september birthdays. That was fun. My mom made German chocolate cake and apple crisp. We had brats and hamburgers.

We’re still trying to decide whether or not to find out the baby’s sex. He/she is definitely growing.

We went to the “I still Do” marriage enrichment conference in Chicago on Saturday. I think our marriage will be enriched but only time will tell. (It’s pretty rich already :). Our cousin’s husband Brian, who is from Florida, was there and he didn’t even tell us so we could say hey.

Have you noticed that Yahoo! has *everything*? I told someone that the other day and he said “What about a recipe for apple pie?”. Sure enough.

After a week since the terrorist attacks I have to say I’m pretty thankful to see all the good coming out. People are really helping each other. Once again, I don’t have much time to write so I’ll try later today.

Last night we had C’s dad over. It was his birthday. We had steaks on the grill. Pretty good for my first time doing them. Could have been a little better but not bad.

We are going to put G in a real bed soon. That will be an adventure.

It was nice to see so many people at our worship service on sunday. I’m sure it was that way all over the country. I hope we start to learn that we need to turn back to God

Wow. Some pretty awful stuff has happened this week. The world trade center twin towers were taken down by terrorists along with the Pentagon. I guess that’s all I have to say about that….

The good news is that we had a vacation last week. We got to go to Mackinac Island. Mostly the sights are historical in nature so there were a lot of museums and some archeology going on. G did great and we had a good time away from it all.

Today back at work wasn’t too bad. A little slow back into the swing of things but tomorrow is another day
