Fall celebrations...

 

In October we celebrated...

an early birthday celebration for Zana.


It is her 40th birthday and my Aunt Judy came from California to celebrate.
We thought a celebration should of course include Jenni's Ice Cream!!


In October we celebrated these two helping each other with school.
It has been such a blessing to watch as God has knit our two daughters together.
They have not always been the closest...perhaps their personalities are too similar...or their both driven and strong. Whatever the case may be...we celebrate that for the most part...they serve each other and help each other and these days...are enjoying being with each other.


In October, we celebrated this beautiful group of ladies studying the Bible together.
It has been an incredible blessing to walk through the minor prophets - verse by verse - chapter by chapter.
Allowing the Holy Spirit to illuminate His Word alongside of each other.
This group has truly been an iron sharpening me in my walk.
I am so thankful for them.


In October, we celebrated this girl's early birthday!!

Lexi Kennedy is going to be in Mexico celebrating her sister's wedding on her birthday...so we headed to Chuck E Cheese to squeeze in a quick birthday party before she left.
Having the McCrory girls definitely made it more fun!!



In October, we celebrated the turning of the season with FRESH APPLES!!!


We try and wait as long as we can in the apple season so we can get Granny Smiths and Pink Lady apples...


our favorites!



Thankfully there were plenty of both!





Almost six feet!!!





A trip to SkyTop Orchard would not be complete without apple cider doughnuts.
AMAZING!


In October, we celebrated a special night as a family carving pumpkins.


Daddy is the overseer of pumpkins.
He is such a good designer and helps the kids carve out the best pictures.






They turned out SO good!!!


In October, we celebrated GOOD HEALTH. Its easy to take that for granted when all is well.
Unfortunately, Jackson got pretty sick on Halloween night. We were so glad it didn't last long and it didn't spread to the rest of the family.

In October, we celebrated Jason preaching at our church!!
He has been traveling quite a bit of late...so to have him here...in our own town...at our church...was such a blessing. We are going through a series right now called Unlikely...and Jason preached a powerful sermon on the unlikeliness of David.


In October, we celebrated our friend stepping out in faith and looking to serve the local community.
Ben Bash ran for Matthew's Commissioner. We wanted to support him - so we headed out to pass out pamphlets to the voters. 


Sadly, he did not win this race. But it was an honor to be a part of his race!!


In October, we celebrated Zana turning 40!!!!
The menu?
Chimichangas and ice cream pie, of course.


There really is no better way to celebrate birthdays!!

It has been a very full month...of celebrations!
