Another Week

Well, I came back to Lafayette to great weather.  The temperatures have been wonderful and in the week that I was gone, the colors of the trees have started to change!  The trees change more red and purple than yellow and orange.  It's pretty.  The girl I  get my hair cut from introduced me to this site called Pintrest.  I love it!  This week, I have made a fall wreath and some coasters!  I can't wait to start a new project.  Being crafty is expensive though!  I don't know how long I am going to be able to keep this up!  I did make my wreath for about half what you could buy one for but still, it can eat up your pocket change!  It looks fantastic on my red front door!  I will post a picture soon.  I tell you what, being wrapped up in a craft all day really makes your week go by fast.  It was very nice.  Yesterday we went out to a bike race at the Wildcat Creek MX track.  It was fun.  Brian says the track is VERY nice.  I think it was a race kind of thrown together at the last minute because the weather is still so nice so the turnout wasn't fantastic but it was still fun!  All of Brian's friends are getting new motorcycles.  All three of them are.  I think having him listen to his friends get new shiny toys and watching a race naturally has made him want one.  He says there is no need for one here, which is true, but I think he still wants to be like all of his buddies.  I feel bad that I can't let him have one.  I feel very blessed to have a husband that knows that now is not the time, nor the place to invest in something like that.

Well, this is the week!  The Lafayette 3rd ward's Day of Service is this Saturday the 15th!  I was really worried but we rallied the troops today and filled every spot we were supposed to.... and then some!  Now I just need to call the facilities and see if they would allow us to bring more people!  It is so good to see the work of the Church going forward!

This week is our week to get things done.  I wanted to go watch Purdue play volleyball but Brian is going to be gone next week to NC and the next for some sort of training so this is our week of productivity.  I have two ladies to visit teach, Brian and I need to home teach our three families and get everything ready for our DOS this Saturday. Did I mention Brian is going to be gone with the scouts this weekend too?  Volleyball just may have to wait.

Well, onward and upward for another week!
