Cross Country and Football are done...for this year

Tuesday ended both cross country and football for our family. There are still some Varsity games for both, but for JV CC and 7th grade football, we are done. Peirce had his best meet on Tuesday. (Of course, this was the only one that we did not get to.) Mitchell's team ended up 1-4, but they had a good time. Mitchell was responsible for someone getting carried off of the field on Tuesday. (For a 7th grade football player this is a badge of honor.)

For those of you who have been wondering, our friend Warren passed away last Friday afternoon. He is finally without pain. It has been very encouraging to read the comments and "hear" from people that we have not seen in almost 20 years. Warren and Tana have been a great testimony to God's grace in the midst of trial. I just pray that Tana continues to feel God's arms as she and their three children continue on in this journey.

I don't know about where you are, but Fall is here in Iowa. The trees are so pretty. We saw a very pretty harvest moon tonight. I did have to turn the furnace on today. I dreaded doing so, but the house had gotten down to 61. It was 29 last night here. I do love Fall though. Last Saturday we cleaned up the flower beds. Before too long, we will be raking leaves.
