i love the smell of fall in the air

This has been a hard month. Alot of things have come up, that i wont mention on here, but it has been encouraging to see God working everything out, even in the darkest of times. Mark and Lauren came up unexpectedly to be with the family, so it was great to have them here for a week, and just be able to spend time together. Allistiar stuck to mark like glue! I love seeing them play together.

Julian will find out the results of the election tomorrow (monday) night , we are optimistic about him getting in so it will be exciting to hear the news. He also is trying out for the police auxillary, as he hopes to eventually become a police officer. *I hope he gets that! guys in uniform are smokin! especially when they get to have a gun!! haha *

As for me, ive been feeling pretty discouraged about a lot of things lately, but especially this month. Its good to have great friends and family standing behind me. A verse that has been very encouraging to me lately has been Romans 8 35-39
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
