~I! LOVE! FALL! Fast Track Coffee pot, voting, HUGE Answer to prayer!~

 Ok!  I! LOVE! FALL!  

I love the colors, I love the coffee, the aromas, the chilly weather, the coffee, the boots, the scarves, the sweaters, the coffee ;-), candles, hot chocolate, fires, s'mores, Thanksgiving, Being Thankful to God, pumpkins, pies, family time, 

I LOVE IT ALL! 

I! LOVE! FALL!!

~My Moma raised me to LOVE WHITE!!!!  
I love white walls, white decor, white bedspreads, etc.  However, my Sweetheart loves quilts!  
I am not a huge fan of quilts, but wanted to get a Fall-ish quilt for him for our room.  
I happened to find this one for an excellent deal at a consignment shop in Hillsboro where I dropped off some of my things to sell. 
I am enjoying the cozy feeling it brings to our room.~
~We are so privileged to get to enjoy Kimberly's DELICIOUS Macarons!!~


~2 Little girls, wearing matching pumpkin Dresses!  
I cannot believe that they are not 10 and 6!~





~A burlap pillow I made and Abigial's little brown boots she wore years ago.~

~WHERE DOES TIME GO?~
~Cappuccino muffins ...a taste of home recipe I made.~
~Since we do a lot of traveling for Jesus, when we are actually at home on a Saturday, we do not want to LEAVE HOME!  
But, last Saturday we did what we have wanted to do since we have moved here.
We went and looked around downtown Hillsboro!!!!  
I made myself coffee at home, and just enjoyed sipping it, while walking into the stores. So fun!!~
~Mary got a kite for a prize at Jr. Church.  She enjoyed flying it.~

~Our family singing a special last Sunday.  
Sadly, we each thought the other was going to get Mary and Elijah from Jr. Church, and so since no one got them, we sang without them.  :-( ~
~I love to Coffee... in the Fall... ALL YEAR LONG!~ 



~I found this in a box in the shop that I had not unpacked.  
It is a little tea set that I got in Colombia.  
Abigail LOVED it and wanted to surprise the kids and make a tea party for them. ~



~WE VOTED!!!~
Since we will be in AZ on November 3rd, we voted early!

#GodhelptheUSA
I am trying to spend extra time PRAYING for 
our Country, 
OUR PRESIDENT, 
our Vice President, 
and that God will FORGIVE OUR SIN, 
and HEAL OUR LAND!!!!!

Since this is Sarah's first time to vote, we wanted to do something little to celebrate! 
We found this little drug store in West Union where we voted!  
They still have a soda fountain, and their sandwiches and ice cream were extremely CHEAP and yummy!! :-) 
Blake's drugstore. ~

~ 40 Cents a scoop for their ice cream!  
I got S'mores!  Phillip got Pumpkin.~

~Today Mary and Abigail helped me make this Death By Chocolate Bundt Cake.  (pics of the recipe below).~


~I USED A DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE MIX (CHOCOLATE CAKE) INSTEAD OF A YELLOW CAKE MIX!
I ALSO USED 1 CUP OF FRESHLY BREWED COFFEE INSTEAD OF THE 1 CUP OF SOUR CREAM!


~After Kimberly posted pics of us walking around Hillsboro, she got a message on Instagram that Nicole Fink was visiting Hillsboro.   
So, we decided it would be fun to meet up with her and her children.  
We met in Rural King Parking lot. :-D  
Our kids had fun playing together.

~And Nicole and her daughters and Kimberly and I had a super nice visit!  
We enjoyed sharing God stories and encouraging each other in the Faith! 
Isn't it great to meet God's people wherever you meet them, and you feel like you have known them forever?!  

~Quite often Kimberly teaches English Live to the kids at Pastor Jimmy's school in Colombia.~ 

~FOR NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD!  
LUKE 1:37~
OUR FAMILY HAS BEEN PRAYING FOR AN URGENT REQUEST FOR SOME TIME.
ONLY OUR FAMILY AND A CLOSE FRIEND KNEW OF THE NEED.  
THE LORD JUST CAME TROUGH IN A MIGHTY WAY!!!!
WE ARE PRAISING HIM!!!!!
~OUR COFFEE POT DIED...and as I have already expressed, we enjoy Coffeeing...all year long!....
~Our Coffee Pot DIED!!!  
But, have you tried to price a coffee pot lately?  
We wanted One that would make a pot and do a single cup, and those machines are NOT CHEAP!!!  
So, we did not know what we do, but Prayed that God would guide us.
Josh told us about Fasttrack!  
An app where you bid on things that you see.
THROUGH FASTRACK THE LORD GAVE US THIS NICE COFFEE POT FOR $15.00!!!!  
Thank you, Dear Jesus!!!! ~


~Mary's sweet cousin Heidi bought her this new outfit for her doll.~

~S'MORE TIME...FAMILY TIME!!~



~Noah has enjoyed driving Grandpa's truck, which is a stick shift. 
Grandpa loaned us his truck while he was recouping from his knee surgery. ~

~Grandpa's cool truck and God's beautiful Fall Leaves...a perfect combo.~
~Wet Weather....and a cute little toothless girl 
with a new umbrella.  
Abigail got a new umbrella for her birthday, so we have been waiting on the perfect rainy day to grab a pic of her. ~
~LET THEM STAY LITTLE...
LET THEM SLEEP IN THE MIDDLE.  :-) ~


~Missing her 2 front teeth.~
~Silly girl.~
~I am Thankful to Jesus for our fresh eggs!!!  
It is SUCH A BLESSING to have fresh eggs to feed my family.  
( I like this little "Fresh egg" tray and little egg cup that I found in Argentina.) 

Last Week, some animal got into our chicken coop and killed several chickens. :-(. 
Phillip and Noah repaired the fence!  We are praying that God will protect our chickens while we are gone.  There will be someone taking care of them for us. ~
We appreciate prayer as we get everything wrapped up to leave on our Deputation out West.  
How we NEED God's help before we leave and on deputation!  
It is our family's goal to encourage people in their walk with Jesus / encourage those who have not yet found HIM to SEEK FOR HIM with THEIR WHOLE HEART!!
~HEATHER~
