Blessings

Our Gracie girl turned four last week. We love her so much.

My sister, Sara, was with us for seven glorious days. I adore spending time with that girl. She spent her whole placement break with us and our head colds. Such devotion.

More visitors this week. My mom arrives on Wednesday and my dad on Friday. Hurray!

Safe travels- and praying for more as my parents come East and as Cori is away this week.

Our treadmill- Though I prefer hitting the street, it is officially to cold and dark to even think about running outside in the early morning hours. Back to the basement.

Speaking of the cold, I'm grateful that our utilities were so low over the summer. Hardly ever did we have to turn on the AC. I get the feeling we'll be making up for those savings trying to keep our house warm in the Fall, let alone the winter crush after the new year.
