the fair

the deerfield fair is the second thing that i remember purposely doing to create new memories after jim left. the first was getting our abigail.

yesterday howie and i went to the fair. the school went as well. we got there at 9 am and stayed until 7 pm. i had not been to the fair in several years, and i loved it. i am thankful that i was able all of those years ago to do something so simple with my children as to go to the fair.

i remember

it was beautiful out today. i enjoyed my day off immensely. why is it that days off are sooooo short???. it seems that they just fly by. but it was peaceful and relaxing. thank you Lord for that. today is september 11th. on that day in history i was sleeping on my couch, as my home was getting sound proofed. i had worked the night shift. it was hard to believe then, and still hard to believe today. however i do feel safe and secure, because i know that my Lord is in control of it all.

in rememberence of all those who lost their lives

i had a blast watching bob and mandy look at stuff to register for. it was amazing to me that bob is so "into" it. i am so happy for them and thankful that bob has found his soul mate.
