Days go by....

Hi everyone! Not too much happening here (story of my life). Ted just got back from the field this weekend, but he's on an out-of-town trip again today and will be leaving again the 2nd week of November for 3 weeks. It's a very busy time for him! I'm a lot less busy, and found myself quite lonely and bored this weekend. My mom, who is wonderful and always knows how to make me feel better, sent me a card, and it had this verse in it:
"But their trust should be in the living God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment." --1 Timothy 6:17
How true! It was just what I needed to hear. I just wanted to pass it on, in case any of you are feeling the blahs as well.
Thinking back...one year ago we were just getting home from Virginia to see our families before coming here. It's been a whole year since I have seen my family. It's like my own kind of deployment! Luckily I can start the countdown to our Christmas visit now. To get to November again seemed to take forever, but all in all I guess it went quickly. So here's to one more year here (and then another!). Thank goodness for your loving cards, emails, and pictures from home. They really do make a difference!
That's all I have for today. I'm working at my unit this week to help catch up on stuff in the office. It's nice to earn a few extra bucks. But the laundry didn't start itself while I was gone, so I better get to it! Love and miss you all.

Fall Pics

I don't have too much to say, but wanted to put up some pictures from around the neighborhood. Fall is such a pretty time of year! Enjoy!






Yes, we got snow too! Just a couple days after you. It was beautiful. Ted was SO sad to have missed it (NOT!). I made sure to take a pic of everything white and send it to his phone so he knew what he was missing out on! :)
Time for bed. I love you all!
