Odds and Ends
The rain destined for the Shenandoah Valley that has been backed up on 81 all summer is finally here, just in time for a planned visit from Grandma, Grandpa and Mariah. But, we can all enjoy the company anyway. If the rain slows long enough on Saturday, we'll head to the Pumpkin Patch and let the girls have fun.
A very dear high school friend of mine is getting married in Atlanta, GA this weekend. I had hoped so much to be there with her, but we just couldn't work the trip out. I am sure that she knows Garren and I send her best wishes as she and her husband start their new life together. I will be there in spirit tomorrow as she says her vows.
Gracie's 18 month pictures are back from Penny's. I will post them next.
I think Gracie is going to be an elephant this year for Halloween. She LOVES animals, and her new favorite is elephants. She can even make the animal sound. I looked for a costume without avail, but luckily for me my niece Mariah was one a few years ago. Mom is going to bring the costume for Gracie to try on this weekend. I am also hoping that the 3 of us can celebrate Halloween in Lynchburg with mom and dad again this year. There is much more for Gracie to do there, and here we don't know many people and we live in the sticks, which isn't conducive to trick-or-treating.
I am actually looking forward to this month's weigh-in at Curves. Gracie and I have been walking 30 minutes to an hour this week (except today, it's pouring!), so you add that to my regular workout, and maybe the pounds will come off faster. Gracie and I both enjoy the walks, she gets out of the house, and I get to work off some excess energy.
I think that's about it. Gracie is still a handfull, but I am trying to stay calm. She refuses to take naps now, but I finally got her down for one today. I took everything out of my jewelry armoire and I taped the doors shut on the entertainment center with packing tape. We had child locks on them, but Gracie broke them off (no kidding!) We are managing well, but any prayers you want to send my way would greatly be appreciated.
