Kayla's reactions... (Mon.9.21)
When I first showed Kayla my ring, her response was, "You got married!?"
..I assured her she hadn't missed anything, but that the ring meant we were going to be married.. :)
Then I came home to this sweet note...
hope you don't mind... (Sun.9.20)
(changed the picture..... this one's still blurry, but it shows the sparkle a little better :)
hope you don't mind me basking in this moment some more here in blog-land!!
took this for steph who I finally got to skype with and tell this morning!! (the camera-phone-picture doesn't do it justice, but it's still nice to be able to share...)
thoroughly enjoying these moments!!! ♥
kayaking.. (Sat.9.19)
What a day!!!
...I never knew the first day after getting engaged could/would be so exciting!!
Not only did we get to go kayaking with our good friends Angela & Justin, we got to start calling and emailing friends and family about our engagement!!!
(somehow in all my anticipation I never imagined this part being soo enjoyable!!)
♥
sidenote: kayaking was also on my 29 before thirty list... (#6) ...woohoo!! :) ...I may have several left undone, but I'm soo glad to get to check this one off... maybe even to make it a regular!!

Celia Rivenbark is kind of a big deal.. (Tues.9.15)
...apparently! :)
Celia held a 2 & 1/2 hour line Tuesday night at Barnes!!
She intentionally took her time and was very personable with everyone! ...very nice!
her new book: You Can't Drink All Day If You Don't Start in the Morning... :)
strolling for stress relief..(Mon.9.14)
long day.. a nice walk around TMC was just what I needed before meeting up with Myranda for dinner..
beach baptisms + some.. (Sun.9.13)
our friends Stacy and Joe got baptized in the ocean today..
...pretty awesome!!
We have a church picnic at the State Park every end-of-summer and I love it!
lovely day with Sister..(Sat.9.12)
we tried the pool, but it was a little too FREEZING already!!
so we hit the beach instead.. then came home and had anna sleepover... fun times!
..love that face! ♥
C.S. Lewis time..(Fri.9.11)
been enjoying some C.S. Lewis lately...
(in my favorite rocking chair outside of Barnes)
I thoroughly enjoyed The Great Divorce, an imaginary but profound allegory of Heaven & Hell and everything in between....
So now I'm onto A Grief Observed... basically Lewis' journaling after his wife died; a little heavy, but really quite wonderful!

lost and found..(tues.9.8)
...my beloved "clicker" (and house keys)... slid down the sewer grate today..
thankfully I have a spare set of house keys, but I thought that was going to be it for my spoiled days of remote lock/unlocking!
However Mr. Joe came through somehow and rescued them!! ...yay!
.......noteworthy I thought ;)
Daniel and his fruit/veggie diet.. (Mon.9.7)
starting the fast with church.. (27 days ..9/7 - 10/3)
..praying for lots of things, including wisdom in choosing a 'new' building for the Vineyard.... (everybody's choosing for themselves what kind of fast is right for them)..
a form of Daniel's diet, I'm doing fruits, veggies, rice, nuts/seeds, water, & herbal tea (no, I didn't see coffee on that list either.. by far the greatest sacrifice for me..)
..just wanted to document the occasion.. I'll keep most updates in my journal, but maybe a few will leak over to publicity.. I guess we'll see.. ♥
