Jesus comes first


Others come next


Yourself comes last

Learned this tonight from a very wise church member.

Pumpkins and more pumpkins

Aren't they beautiful! I love the fall. We (fellow teachers and myself) took our students there on Tuesday for a field trip. Several pumpkins were purchased to say the least. Definitely worth a second or third trip back!

Getting Cheaper

Still cheaper. $2.84 as of 9:15 tonight. Now things are beginning to get easier in travel. Keep it coming.

$2.92

Gas is even cheaper. Double WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. We can now go places and not have to worry about getting a second job just to pay for gas! Just kidding! :)

$3.01

Gas is finally coming down. The cheapest I have seen it is $3.01! O happy day!
