Brrrrrrrrrrr

What a cold birthday weekend. Saturday's high was 27 and Sunday it was 37 degrees. Brrrrr. We had the top of the sprinkler backflow pop off because it hasn't been blown out yet and the pipes want to freeze. We usually do it around now, but it is a little early for the snow and cold. There is still alot of leaves on the trees and many are still green. We had pumpkin pie and chili for my birthday. It was a good dinner and fabulous birthday.

Our house is under quarantine. Chris is getting over the flu. Since it is too early for seasonal flu. We are assuming swine flu. He has a nasty cough. Lots of hand washing going on as the rest of us are trying not to get it!

My whole family has decided to come out for Christmas this year. It will be my parents 50th wedding anniversary in May. Christmas break seemed to be the only time everybody can get together. Given my situation, they decided to have it here. So that should be a fun time. There will be 13 of us. Looking forward to seeing everybody.

The next prayer circle will be Monday, October 19th at Karen's house at 6:45. Please call me if you need directions.

Michelle
