Hello there! Here comes a bunch of photos from the month of September.
They are in order, but I can't remember exactly which dates everything goes to.
On the 1st, we had a game night, which turned out to be a GIRLS game night, because no guys came. Five of the girls were from God's Bible School and College, and 2 are from our church.
We had fun with them!
A couple times now, some GBS friends have stopped by Chick-fil-A to see me when I get off work, because they were passing by.
One evening I went ice-skating with Lily and others from GBS. Charlie (from our church) and her boyfriend Bowen got to come too.
Sunday dinner on the 3rd with the Tallmans , Lily, and Danette
On Labor day, we went to my Aunt Becky and Uncle Ron's apartment to see them and have lunch with them. It was so good just to visit for a couple hours with them.
They are so dear to us.
Labor day supper on our deck with Lily.
The naughty-neighborhood-trouble-maker has been eating our tomato plants! :(
Tuesday and Thursday mornings were spent with the Harms kiddos!
Silly faces after we got a puzzle done.
Popsicle time!
Later that day, Elizabeth and I got to go on a walk around our neighbor
woods!
That evening, we met Lily, Abigail, and Kaitlyn (GBS girls) and Charlie at Graeter's IceCream for some free ice-cream!
Our dear pastor's wife Regina had a birthday on the 9th, and so Mother, Elizabeth, and I got to take her out to Cracker Barrel to celebrate! We had a sweet time with her!
We love her so much!
We've spotted raccoons in the tree behind our house!
Sunday dinner on the 10th, with Lily and her family from Indiana, who were visiting our church that day.
Our neighbor has sedum that I've been watching as it opens up, and they let me take some pictures over there a couple days.
Notice the water-drop hanging from the leaf!
Fall colors are coming!
Our friends the Dickinsons let me come for breakfast and visiting one morning after Symphonic Wind and String Ensemble class. I had a sweet time with them.
Yummy breakfast!
A quick snap with these sweeties- Mary and Abigail!
One Sunday at church, Lily and Karilee were matching and I got this cute picture of them laughing!
Harms morning! Reflections in the mirror after hair-combing.
Young ladies Bible study at the Strouds on the 19th!
I so enjoy these evenings with these ladies, studying God's word.
Talent night at GBS on the 15th. Elizabeth and our friend Bryanna waiting for time to start
For Talent night, whoever wants to can do something. There were quite a few "performers" this year.
My friend, Lily signed a song.
My sister, Elizabeth and I sang/played a song.
We've been trying to figure out how to make our homemade bread actually turn out in this altitude, compared to Colorado altitude, and we've been making progress in figuring it out.
Sunday dinner on the 17th, with the Brown family, Danette, and Lily.
Our sweet friend Danette
On the same Sunday afternoon, our friends the Heppners, all the way from Colorado, were traveling through, and stopped by for an hour to see us!
Mother and Daddy enjoyed visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Heppner.
And I enjoyed getting to see my friend Natalie again and catch up with her. The one hour that we had together went by really quickly.
Dear friends!
Day with the Harms, building a tower.
We've seen deer very often throughout September!
Hello
there deer!
Day with the Harms, being creative with blocks.
Swinging at the park
One day after babysitting, I went walking along the Ohio river with our friend, Stacy Carey.
We had a nice walk and visit together! At one park along the river, they have giant swings that are fun and relaxing to swing on!
Thursday evening, the 21st, we had the Manns over. They are another precious family in our church.
One Saturday at work, the Harms came to see me and I got to have my break with them! In case you can't tell, these people are special to me.
One Sunday morning, we were walking out the door for church and found this praying-mantis on our front porch.
Sunday dinner on the 24th, with the Staleys, Danette, and Lily.

After church that evening, there was a 25th anniversary party for a couple in our church.
