Ok... enough is enough!!
Enough is enough. I said I would write. I am supposed to be a girl of my word!! So here it is. I am doing what I said I would do.
Life is good. I am settling into life in Monticello. We have been home for 3 weeks as of yesterday. My boxes are (for the most part) unpacked, and I am getting ready for my first round of company. Mike, Amy, and Kaius, I can't WAIT for you to get here!!
For those of you who weren't there, the wedding went off SO VERY WELL. I could not have asked for a more perfect day. The weather went from pretty crappy for a couple weeks beforehand to absolutely beautiful for the first full weekend in October. The temp was up in the low 20s. I cannot complain because from what I have heard, the following Monday it dropped to below 10 and hasn't gone above since! What can I say, Jesus wanted us to have happy memories :)
We did our best to make sure that Jesus was the center of our wedding day. Jeremiah and I agree with a resounding "Yes!" that our favourite part of the whole day was having Renata lead us in worship. Ah yes, good memories.
The honeymoon was fantastic. We spent a couple of nights in Ogdensburg NY before flying to Sedona, Arizona for a week at the Sedona Summit, a Sunterra Resort. The scenery was beautiful and Jer was amazing (take that however you want **giggle**) We rounded off the week with a party/reception in Sierra Vista with a good part of his family. It really is a shame that I have such an **awesome** family of in-laws yet don't get to spend much time getting to know them... Most people have it up to their ears with their in-laws... I would love to have that opportunity!!!!
And now we're back. Home is now in Monticello, Maine. The church family has been *very good* at welcoming me with open arms. I even got a hug from the lady working at the Post Office the other day! (She comes to the church)
So if you're reading this and are ever passing through - come visit! I'd love to open my home to you! Send an email if you're ever going to be in the area or passing through! (If you're driving on the Transcanada, you're only about 20 minutes away when you pass Woodstock).
BTW, Jer's computer crashed awhile back, so he's been taking mine to work a good lot of the time. This is part of the reason my blogging skills have gone out the window. I will try to do better! Promise!

A pic for you
To keep all you hungry picture-hungry bloggers temporarily fed...
I'm going to put a bunch on my msn space (which has a much better photo album program) as soon as I can.

FOR RENATA
I promised Renata I would update my blog today - seeing as my husband (first time that word has been used on this blog!) was out of town all day. However, my internet was being incredibly HOODY all day. This is the first time it has allowed me online ALL DAY and now - now it is time to leave to go pick up Jer!! So needless to say, Renata, I don't think this is the update you were looking for!!!
BETTER LUCK REALLY SOON!! I PROMISE!! I'll go to the church if I have to.
On a better note, our house is looking more like a home rather than a trailer park after a hurricane hit! That's a bonus!
More later - OUT!

The Sad Files
I have decided to have a "sad picture contest" So far there are only three entries. If you have a sad picture you would like to enter in the contest, email it to me or put it on YOUR blog, leave a message and I'll come check it out. Then I'll transfer your picture to the contest.
Below are the first three entries and explanations. Please feel free to vote!
Picture #1: Isaac, after a day at the fair when he realized that all his tickets were gone and he could not go on the last ride with Emily.

We will (and have) survived!
Wow - it seems like FOREVER since I have even looked at a blog (anyone's blog) let alone actually POSTED on my own. How about a camp update?
Thank you to any and all who were praying for Winchester Wesleyan as we again ventured into the world of children's camp. No matter how many years we've done it now, it continues to be a little scary for me. There is a lot of responsibility, both physical (parents appreciate knowing their kids are SAFE) and spiritual (our reason for doing camp is in hopes that the children will meet with God, even while they are flipping waves on the tubes).
God is good. While we had our share of challenges (Jer, do you dare sleep with both eyes closed yet???), we also had our share of smiles (there are some of the kids that I would gladly pack up and move with me here to Monticello in the fall). God continues to be good. He has to. It's his nature.
Sorry for the lack of meat in this post. Despite 11 hours of sleep last night, I'm still not fully caught up. Time for me now to go and peruse YOUR blogs :) See you on the flipside!!
UPDATE - me perusing YOUR blogs has been post-poned due to Matthew's Bethany links being down at the moment. Continue to not say anything important until I get caught up. Thanks!
