Back in the Saddle...Kinda

We returned from our Chicago and NY trip Monday and it was so good to be back home and with Cooper! The day before we left, we were struck by lightening. Living where we do, we have actually had lightening strike close enough to smell and to fry up phones and electronics in our house. Never, however, have we seen a strike and fire 10 feet from our window. Dave and I can't remember ever being that scared! So, when we returned home, the week quickly turned into one of repairing and replacing! The wireless Internet is still not up, so there won't be any pictures of our vacation until I'm able to post them from my PC, where I downloaded all of them. I'm excited to share them!

As for the family, we are back in the swing of things and preparing for Layla's 5th birthday and first day of school, both of which are Tuesday. Dave and I are working through our huge to-do list to open the pumpkin patch in 4 weeks. Oh my! 4 WEEKS! I have great peace that it will all come together, although I'm sure we will look back at this time and wonder how God got all of this work done through just 2 people. But, He's faithful and we're excited!
