It’s Monday

We’re tired around here. Even though we stuck around town for the entire weekend (yay!) we were busy running around!

On Saturday we trekked over to a friend’s home for their (2nd) annual chili cook off. There were 18 entries, and I tried just about every one of them! To be honest, I’m a little old school when it comes to my chili, I’m not a fan of all of the funky extras…but it was a blast trying out everyone’s recipes!

Gavin’s future prom date, Juliet, was there

as well as several other kids…Gavin had a ball. He passed out an hour early for bedtime!

On Sunday, we were welcomed into our new church (also the one we will be married in) and Gavin did a fantastic job of sitting somewhat quietly in the pew, only needing to escape to the children’s room for the last 10 minutes. Hopefully, we’ll get better about attending on a weekly basis and he’ll quickly learn that he needs to behave for that hour!

Last night, Gavin came close to getting a black eye, after falling off one of our kitchen chairs…

but luckily this morning it’s just barely black and blue, and healing up nicely! Hoping all traces of it are gone for the Halloween celebrations this weekend!

Also, still waiting for our engagement pictures to be completed…once I get them I will be sharing (most) of them here!
