10/11/16....Vikki and I went to our Election Training

Vikki and I at our Election training

Went to our breakfast!  Had 11 of us there!  After breakfast, I went to Melissa's and 

we went to McDonald's Nursery to walk around.  Enjoyed looking at everything, but there were some very high priced items.  Came home and cooked squash. Then packed up some chicken noodle soup and took it to Charlie and Sue.  Spent time with Sue and walked around her big yard.  It was a beautiful sunny day.  Left there, came home, changed and headed to the township hall for our Election training.  Vikki and I were the only ones from the precinct we are working.  Our Chair wasn't even there.  We ended up sitting with another group.  They ran into a few problems because our trial ballots had precinct one from our table and they were 2 so it wouldn't accept the ballots and they had to be marked spoiled.  We learned a lot of things, like if someone comes with a shirt with Clinton or Trump on it, we have to have them turn it inside out or cover it up with something.

We went and checked out where we would be working and stopped at Tony's on our way back.

10/10/16...Walked the rail trail with Vikki today!

Made Noodle Soup today!

Bill walked at the Sports Zone and I slept in.  I shampooed the upstairs carpets and then called Vikki to see if she wanted to walk the rail trail.  She did so we met and walked.  We saw Cathleen and Ruth and walked a little ways with them.  Then Vikki and I went ahead of them and walked on the sidewalk and then down the street and around till we got back to our cars.  Vikki was feeling faint when we got back to the car.  She hadn't eaten and was pretty warm.  She felt better once she got some pop and food in her.  When I got home, Bill was working on the shed.  It is looking great. I went and pulled the plastic up around my rosebush and by the front of the house.  It was hard work because of all the roots, but I finally got a lot of it done.  I have some scratches on my arms to prove it was me that done it.  Ha Ha. It looks so much better.  Made noodle soup and then after we ate, I called Vikki and we went looking for her birthday present.  Came home and relaxed with Bill.

10/9/16....Went to church in the morning and care group in the evening

Mocha was wearing her coat...it was cold this morning 39 degrees.  Still haven't turned our furnace on!  Electric throws and blanket sure are nice.

It was a napping kind of day.  I woke up to take the pictures of my napping buddies

We had a very cool night.  No frost here yet though.  Went early to church because I teach Sunday School today.  Had 13 kids in my class today.  Took a little gift and card to Kaiden.  He has pneumonia and hasn't been at church for a few weeks.  I was going to give it to his grandma, but then she showed me he was there.  I gave the gift to him and gave him a hug. He didn't come into my class as he didn't want to cough around the other kids.  We had a very relaxing day!  Even got a nap in.  Went over our lesson and went to care group at church.  It was a good lesson on resolving conflict.  Our care group took the snacks tonight.  We had crackers, cheese, sausage, salmon, fruit, cookies apples and caramel.  YUM!  Watching the debate now!  

10/7/16..Had our Missionaries over for our care group potluck

We sat around and listened to Roz and Ron share about their lives

 Went to Melissa for a couple of minutes.  Next I went to Jack's and got meat.  I made chicken in the crock pot and also sloppy joes for our potluck.  Everyone started coming around 6.  We ate yummy potato salad, pasta salad, veggie pizza, fruit, and cookies.  We were all sitting in the living room and Nancy got up and left the room.  I thought she was just going to the bathroom.  She had Meredith get me and so I went to check on her and she had been throwing up and was really weak.  I prayed over her and got her a cold washcloth, then got her husband so he could take her home.  We all prayed as a group for her while Randy was helping her get ready.  Felt so bad for her.  Sure was hoping it wasn't anything with the food.  Prayed no one else would get sick.  It was very nice getting to know our care group missionaries.  They are really close friends of Bill and Sabrina, some friends of our from Faith Riders.

10/8/16....Had our church outflow at Abortion Alternatives today! Saw where Vikki and I will be working the election

Good team work today

Vikki, Ryan, Sam, Linda and Amy!  I had Ryan in my Pioneer Class when he was a first grader.  He just moved and goes to the school Kimmy works at now.

Got up, got ready and headed to church to meet up with all the other care groups and head to Abortion Alternatives to help move them to another building.  It went really fast with all the help we had.  We had subway for lunch.  It was yummy.  We went to a building right across the street and moved lots of stuff there and then went to St. Peter and Pauls and moved lots of stuff in there.  That is the school Vikki and I will be working the election at so it was so nice to be able to see it ahead of time and know where we are going.  Had a great time working with everyone.  Roy and Marie were great helpers carrying stuff out and loading it.  Roy is 80 so he was pretty amazing.  

10/6/16..The girls all came over today, Went to Bob Evans to see sister, Carol

Kimmy came over first, then Vikki got her and then Melissa.  We sat and visited while I tried to figure out a pattern to crochet at towel holder.  We had turkey sandwiches for lunch.  After we ate, Bill called to see if the girls and I wanted to come meet him and Carol at Bob Evans.  I told him we had already ate, but would come for dessert.  We headed there and were so happy to see Carol.  Bill helped look at a car with her she is buying.  He got some good deals for her.  I had coffee and banana bread.  The girls had french vanilla caps.  I gave Melissa one of my pieces of banana bread.
Came home and started cleaning the family room.  Went to our Faith Rider's officer's meeting at Wes and Gayla's.  Bill did great leading the meeting.

10/5/16...Kimmy and Vikki came over! Hailey's team won 2 out of 3games! YAY

Kiddo's in kids care group at church!

My kiddos I teach.  Love that three of them are my grandkids!  Peyton,Isaac and Aleyiah
still have pretzel arms from the song we sang before we walked down the hall.  They sing it in school so were so happy when a couple of the other kids wanted to sing it.  Evan is smiling so cute!

Lenny came running full speed when Vikki called him

Me and Hailey after the game

Evan came to my house for a few minutes after the game and wanted to jump on the trampoline


Went to Sports Zone and walked 3 miles.  Came home and did some cleaning.  Kimmy and Vikki came over and then we all went to the park.  It was a very beautiful day.  I came home in case Sue wanted me to drive her to the dentist.  She has been real depressed.  I sure am praying for her.  She didn't need me to drive her son called to see where Vikki and Kimmy were so I could meet them.  They were almost to my house.  Vikki had to leave and then Kimmy and I helped Bill with the shingles for the little shed roof.  Kimmy left.  I finished helping dad for a while but then had to go to Hailey's game.  She did great and they won 2 out of 3 games.  Love how they have team spirit now and are so excited and cheering one another.  It was fun watching the game with Jack, Evan, Melissa and Bruce.  Max stayed home to do homework.  Brought Evan home with me to take to kids care groups.  He played a little at my house and then we went to class.  Everyone was there.  Peyton and Isaac were really happy to see me. Isaac's so cute.  Overtime I ask as question he raises he hand to answer.
