Well life has certainly been busy for us, and as I see with many of you, the same can be said. I still can't believe that it is the middle of November. Since the end of September many things have begun and are in full swing. Katie is now in Ballet/Jazz once a week in Blackfalds and is taking skating lessons again on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. I have also been asked if I can help coach with the school age lessons in Canskate. So once again I am back on the ice. It is a little weird after all this time, but I am glad to be out there and the kids are a lot of fun. As you can see from the picture of our backyard, winter finally arrived this week. Although I am enjoying looking out the window at the snow, shovelling it this morning wasn't a huge amount of fun.
I have also been busy attending 2 mom's groups, one in Red Deer on Wednesday mornings, and one on Thursday mornings here in Lacombe. It has been great to drop the kids off in the childcare and enjoy some coffee with other mom's. One of them does crafts and ussually a speaker, or some activity of sorts. The other one is more of a bible study. It has been a good opportunity to meet people. Luke and Katie have a great time, and it definitely breaks up the days. Aaron and I have also joined a couples bible study group on Sunday evenings with 3 other couples. This has been good for Aaron since he is finding that his life is all work and no play. You can keep him in your prayers that he is able to get involved in some things that interest him. It is hard with a schedule that varies from week to week.
We have also been attending a church here in Lacombe regularily (First Baptist). It is predominatly young families, and we have been very comfortable there.
Well that pretty much summarizes life, aside from me playing around with decorating the house (I will put pictures up when I actually complete things). I guess I should start thinking ahead to the end of December since that will be here before I turn around I am sure!
