Okay, I know it's been awhile since my last update - but I guess I just haven't too much to say.  Things are going good, only 17 more days until my due date!! Very exciting! We pretty much have the nursery finished, I will try to take some pictures soon.  Everything with me is going pretty good, I have had slightly high blood pressure, but the doctor is not too concerned, so I am not worrying about it.  Now we are just counting down the days until Emma is ready to make her arrival!  I am really praying she will not be late, (or at least too late) just because I want her to be born in November, not December. I know that may sound weird, but I just don't want her to have her birthday in same month as Christmas.

At the corps we are offically done with Angel tree applications and we are getting our trees out this week, most are going out on Wednesday - we want to give the public plenty of time to adopt an angel, we are hoping that will help in our return/adoption rate.  In the past they have not had to good adoption rate at all.  Curtis is gearing up for bell ringing, we did the Wal-Mart thing yesterday, and I think it went well, but now we are not ringing again until we start on the 21st.  Hopefully we will have good employees and lots of volunteers, it seems somewhat hard here to get people involved, but we are working on it.

Today we had women's sunday and it went well.  We didn't have as many women come as I would have liked, but it was still good.  Next Sunday we are having our corps Thanksgiving meal and then we are going to start decorating the corps for Christmas. Anyway, I will quit boring everyone now :)

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

So I had my first lamaze class this week-it was pretty interesting-we have five weeks total.  I don't know how much I will really learn from the classes, but I think they are going to be interesting and somewhat useful.  I also had a Dr. appointment and everything looks good - another appointment in 2 weeks.

This week has been hectic though - Curtis left Tuesday to go to Texarkana to help with all the people they have staying in their corps.  They are people that were bused there from Port Arthur, so they can't leave until the buses take them back, and they are not sure when that is going to be.  Curtis got put on the midnight to 8:00am shift - he said that he was actually able to stay awake-but there were no problems, which was good. We are hoping he will get to come home by Monday or Tuesday. 

While Curtis is away I am having to get ready for our United Way kick off breakfast.  We have to have a table set up with items to give away and info. about our organization.  The breakfast is on Tuesday at 6:30am - and we are suppose to be there my 6 - not fun!  I am also trying to get everything organized and ready to go for Christmas. We are beginning our angel tree apps on October 17 and we will take them for two weeks.  Two weeks is great-since in McKinney we took apps for a month.  

Anyway, that is enough meandering for now - Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
