We had a very full weekend, in fact our whole week has been pretty full, but that's just where we are in life right now.
Friday we had our ward trunk-or-treat and it felt so good to be together as a ward (we've had a REALLY hard couple of weeks,but I am so grateful for how we have come together during this time) I have been begging my family to do some kind of family costumes, and no one was digging it. But somehow earlier in the week, Levi had the idea that we should be the days of the week. Yes! We decided to add an emoji to fully express how we feel about each day. :) It was very well received at the party!
Saturday we headed north to my brothers new property for a Packer Halloween party. The kids were in heaven! So much space to run around and adventure in with lots of their favorite people! It was so fun to catch up with family!
Sunday we woke up to a few flurries and it just made most of us so happy. We turned on Christmas hymns and that just made things even better. Our ward had a special meeting for all adults and we called in members from our stake to come help out in primary. Mandi is AMAZING and played the piano for singing time. The kids loved hearing that she is my sister! ❤ We were enjoying black and white this day.
Justin's parents stopped by for a little to bring Adeline a birthday card. Justin was able to give his dad a blessing before a big surgery he has coming up on Halloween!! We had treat night with our friends and it was a pumpkin/chocolate kind of night, so good! Also, the swelling on my face is like an accordion...one day I feel like myself again, the next day it swells right back up. I can't wait for my jaw to fully heal!!
P.S. I have SO SO much to catch up on, but I keep getting so far behind, so I need to move forward, but I'll continue to add more posts from the rest of 2019 because....summer was good!
