Babies, Hayrides, & Election Sermons!

Friday night we got to keep our sweet great niece, Bella. We hadn't seen her in about 2 1/2 weeks and we were missing her just a bit! She did pretty good with us and missed her Momma a little I believe. But we did do a little dancing to the Pride&Prejudice Soundtrack at 2:00 a.m. and it helped to put her right back to sleep :D

See her two new teeth?! :D

She is so precious and has the sweetest little personality!
Brian and I both were dragging a bit on Saturday and we agreed that there is a reason why we have youngins when we're younger! Saturday evening our homeschool co-op had a fall family cookout. It was a lot of fun and all the kiddos enjoyed themselves. Here is our gang before going on the hay ride.

The weather was perfect and the sunset that night was breath taking!

We had an old fashioned "Election Sermon" Sunday night at our church! Bro. Don Pinson from Heritage Ministries of Ky preached a sermon to our local candidates about the role of government, their role in government, and how God is the author of government! We had sent out 55 invitations to local candidates and we had 18 to show up! We have 2 in our congregation that is running for State Senate and County Clerk. And my father-in-law is running for sheriff.

At the end of the service each candidate was given a Declaration of Independance, a New Testament Bible, & a music CD with "God Bless America" and then Bro. Kenny prayed over all of them and asked for God's will to be done in the election results. It was a very powerful service and up until about 1875 these types of services were very popular.

We are praying that November 2nd brings GOOD change for America!
You can guarantee that we'll be waiting for the polls to open next Tuesday!!!
