I've been waiting FOREVER for this...

Check it out!! After weeks of complaining to my husband about how sick and tired I am about the mud-slinging and the news reports, my husband found exactly what I was looking for. A simple chart (document) that compares the candidates view's and ideas side by side. SIDE BY SIDE. FACTS. Crazy thought.

I don't want to hear the opinions of others. Just the facts. Here it is folks. Check it out!!

[holler at your bad self]

Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart and lean not on your OWN understanding;

in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your path.

Proverbs 3:5-6

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord,

"plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with ALL your heart."
Jeremiah 29:11-13

...and that's how I sleep at night after a day like today

Pumpkin Picking!!

Yay!! We finally did it... we went pumpkin picking!! Now that we're married I'm all about starting some new traditions. Number one on my list: pumpkin picking. I did some research online and found this sweet place: Thistleberry Farm. If you have time head down there... we highly recommend it! Here are some pictures of our journey.... enjoy!!

Tim notices the wagon.And there you have it.

Then Jamey and Carrie made dinner for us!

tom tom, jamey & carrie

We were recently given a tom tom and I already don't know how we lived without it. Here I am driving with it for the first time. When I'm in the drivers seat it's set to an English voice... "Please turn onto highway Three-Hundred-and-Thirty-One." When Tim drives it's set to Borat's voice. And that's the difference between me and my husband. Awesome.Jamey Hosey [Tim's best friend from Indiana who moved to Maryland] recently moved back to Indiana. He's dating Carrie and we've been able to spend some crazy times together. They came over last weekend and Tim made burgers for everyone. Of course we had to play buzz word and the boys wrestled. Check out the sweet plant Carrie gave us on the table!!

These brownies were amazing!!
