Project 365-Week 45

This week proved to be another L.O.N.G one! In the last two weeks I have worked 90.5 hours, or in mom's terms, too much!! With the help of Kevin, the pictures were kept up, so here's a peek.

Sunday

While I worked from 10:30 a.m. to 10:45 p.m. we had some characters getting ready at our house.

There was a cowgirl.



A 50's girl.



A clone trooper named, Captain Rex (the specifics are necessary with this one!)



And a blind ref.



They went trick-or-treating in Kevin's old neighborhood (AKA, Grammie and Grandpa's house) Kevin took all of the pumpkins over too.



Bryce ended up choosing a bat for his.

Monday

Another long day at work, but when I got home (11:30) I finished preparing for a little talk I was invited to give Tuesday morning. I was invited to the pre-school to give a devotional for part of their in-service day. It was such a blessing to be asked and God really used it to charge my batteries!




Tuesday

Did the above mentioned devotional and was blessed! After that I voted, no pictures allowed there. When I came home Kevin was out raking leaves. Do you remember all of the times I've mentioned Reese and the vacuum? Well, the rake proves to be no different.





I really should have used movie function so you could see and hear how crazy he was going!

Wednesday

Today must have been Tori gets blessed day and I didn't know it. I have a dear friend who begged me to let her fold laundry for me. She knew that I have lots of clean, unfolded clothes, towels, etc. I have to admit I felt a little silly, but she insisted. So I loaded up this,



Two overflowing baskets of towels. She met me in the mall parking lot as I was heading in to work. When I came home I had this,



Two baskets of perfectly folded towels (and a stray sock or two that got mixed in) Thank you RB, you do indeed have the gift of folding!

Also waiting for me at home tonight was this.



A mysterious envelope. Inside was a very generous gift card to Meijer. I have no idea where it came from, but am so very thankful!!

Thursday

A day off. Hooray!! Guess what I did? I stayed in grubby clothes all day, did not shower and even had lots of friends stop by my house. Oh how I needed this day. I have been missing community so badly and today I was lavished with it. I also took this picture.



This is my favorite tree in our yard. It is always such a vibrant yellow, always one of the very last to drop it's leaves and there is just something about it. Even as a kid I loved it.

Friday

Today while I was at work I received a phone call that went something like this. "Hi Mommy! Guess what? It's SNOWING OUTSIDE!!!!!" Oh yes, you read that correctly. I told her to make sure Daddy took pictures for me and she said, "He already did!"



There was even enough for a good coating that stuck until the next morning.



Saturday

When I work at night, as soon as the mall closes, loud pounding and grinding noises begin coming from across the way. There has been lots of work going on behind a closed wall, but at night they open it. This is causing a stir among the cool, technical people around here.



That would be an Apple store. What is hilarious to me is that the logo is painted on the outside of the wooden wall that covers it, so there is no mystery as to what is going in. Yet last I heard, the mall and Apple would not confirm a new location. I don't get it!

Hope you have had a fantastic and blessed week. I don't know about you, but He always shows up when I need Him most!!
