October Stuff

No, we have not dropped off the face of the earth. Although that might be fun...

We are just in October, the partyest month of the year in the Andrew Family. We've had what seems like dozens of birthday parties, my mother here in town for a week, and of course...Halloween! So, we've been busy. Taking lots of pictures, but not around the computer much. Jason is away tonight and it's quiet, so I can catch up a little.

I actually am volunteering a little bit this year too and it is a big step for me. I have usually just been overwhelmed with my own life and family, but I have felt this gnawing inside that I'm not doing jack squat to help anyone else. So, I am going into Wesley's school once a week, and Thomas' school at random times, and we are doing some serving at church. I feel massive anxiety about not being able to keep up, but so far both the first graders and our small group friends are very gracious. haha I think it is good but I have to take it a day at a time or I just can't sleep. I always thought I was a relaxed person, but I think it's time to admit I'm a freak. So there you go.

Wesley's REAL birthday is in a couple of days. He is so excited to be six! Thomas has a whole new spirit of willfulness since he turned four. And Nathan...well, he just likes to eat the cake. As shown in Exhibit A: Thomas' party...


And Exhibit B...Wesley's party.
