The Simple Woman's Daybook- Oct 13, 2008





FOR TODAY (October 13, 2008)...


Outside My Window...it is cool but will be in the low 80's again....another gorgeous October day. The air smells crisp and clean.

I am thinking... about our new church plant coming in the spring, Old Paths Baptist Church. We are starting a Bible study on our side of town as the beginnings of it. My husband has a projected timeline of how things will take place. Lots of work to be done!

I am thankful for...My Melissa making a decision a few weeks ago to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as her Saviour. My husband was privileged to get to baptize her last night.

From the kitchen... nothing yet....I still need to make my meal plan (which has been a little inconsistent). Later this week we will be canning applesauce and apple butter.

I am wearing... tan skirt, black top with embroidered tan flowers, barefoot, hair still wet from shower.

I am creating... I made new curtains for my bathroom on Friday; I am currently making new skirts for the girls.

I am going... to my moms on the way to the orthodontist to pick up coupons. After the orthodontist, we will head to the CVS across the street from the office to visit our friend who is the manager there.

I am reading... Bible-I am still in 2 Samuel...I think I will begin 1 & 2 Thessalonians in a few days....sometimes I just miss being in the NT (is that bad?!). Just for fun-Beverly Lewis.

I am hoping... that kids aren't coming down with something. Two boys haven't been feeling well over the weekend.

I am hearing... The boys making weird sounds & voices to each other.

Around the house... I need to get some things back in order from the weekend. For the most part, it has stayed pretty clean (yay!).

One of my favorite things... a crisp autumn night and the smell of a wood burning stove in the air.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week: Kayleigh has an orthodontist appointment today; We are going to pick apples on Tuesday and make some apple butter. Later this week, we are going with some other families from church to pick pumpkins and attend a bonfire.

Here is picture thought I am sharing...
My husband and daughter last night.

I think it is so special when daddies get to baptize their children. :)

Hi! I love your blog! We also are an independent baptist family. We live in West Virginia. It is such a blessing when a dad gets to baptize their children. I know one day my husband will get to baptize our kids!

What a special photo! How wonderful about your daughter!

I love fall and those fall smells, too.
