October already!!!

Well I don't know about you but September went by like a flash! Here I thought I would have a slow beginning to the school year and BAM I was slammed with too much to do! Then this week when things were light again.....I GET SICK! For the last two days I have been layed up in bed unable to move because of a fun flu bug that has been going around. Poor Mike slept on the couch last night just so I wouldn't contaminate him. I am just thankful that this little illness came this week and not last week when I was busy coordinating our church dinner, going to football games and all the other craziness of life. That would have really been a disaster!

Also....

We went to meet the Webb's at the airport on Saturday morning only to miss them since their flight came in an hour earlier and we didn't know......sorry we miss you guys and we can't wait to meet Abigail when we are all healthy again!!!!

In the middle of all the madness Mike's department took all the families up to the Suncadia Lodge for a day and night of pampering and fun for shipping their recent products and we were able to squeeze it in. I was able to enjoy the spa with a much needed facial and massage. We took some pictures from our room before we headed out to dinner.

And finally the biggest news of the week is that someone in our house who has had her braces on since 3rd grade (6 1/2 years), finally gets to show off her pearly whites again! The tops came off this week and the bottoms come off over the next two weeks as they prepare for her retainers.

Look at that beautiful smile:

Before:

This shot was taken about a month before she got her braces put on....isn't she little!

After:

Worth the wait!!!!!
