Fall


A leaf pile my sibs and I raked
up. Me next to it for comparison.
This fall has been great. Whooping cough was a drag, but everything else went well. Thanksgiving was awesome and it was great getting to see everyone again! I haven't been going to Jessica's for a while, but I did yesterday and Lanie is HUGE!!! =( =)I have helped my grandparents move. Grandma F moved in early November and Grandparents M moved in late November, but we were packing all in between! We are very thankful that they are finally closer and we love having them right next door! CHOICE has been going well, though not many souls have been saved. HOPE has been cancelled, so all of us are pretty disappointed about that and are eager to start up again in February. I was able to go to a nursing home with the Daires, Zavidils, and my mom and older bro on Sunday and am hoping to go to another next Sunday with the Robinsons. The Christmas season is approaching and the business is halfway around the corner already!! The Jewish home is next Friday. Choir practices have started for the concerts at the mall and church. This year, our concert at church will be on a Friday!! We have started piano lessons again after being off for I-don't-know-how-long. I have missed the Snyders tons and am continuously thinking about them. Mike is getting ready to graduate in the spring (we're all praying he does) and Cassia is ready to be 16. Hannah, Leanna, and I have all gotten so much closer this fall and it has been awesome to be their friend. Leanna will be deserting those of us in King's Choir in April and we are quite upset about that, but we will bravely struggle on and hope for the best. ;D

Cassia and I got braces


My Lanie-Lu-Lu who is 5 months old!!

My 14 Birthday

  A few weeks ago, I turned fourteen and I spent the day at Letchworth State Park with family and friends. We all had a great time and it was a beautiful day to enjoy God's creation!! It was chilly, but a couple walks, playing catch with a football, running up and down stone stairs, etc, really warmed us up!

Liz and Cass






Crossing a creek. Dad, Cass, and Hannah
 took the hard way by going directly across
and surprisingly, only one of them got wet. The
one who got wet (not surprisingly) was Hannah.
Felt so bad for her, but she was a great sport about
and was VERY thankful that Cassia had an extra
skirt and sneakers and she had extra socks.
