Our consignment sale was a grand success-- we raised $22,500! I still can't believe how successful it has become. Everything went very smoothly and the new clothing racks we ordered worked well. I get a four month break until it all begins again!
The kids are back in school. Caroline love "Miss" Julie, and I can already tell that her speech is picking up since she began. Luke is also thriving in "Miss" Faye's class. I was a little worried for him this year since most of his close friends were not going to be in class with him this fall. He has handled it very well-- it is a good lesson to learn since this will be the case from here on out, I'm sure.
I began my two Bible studies last week. I am very excited about both of them. The first one is a special class being taught at Otter Creek on Tuesday mornings by Rhona Lowry. She is the "first lady of Lipscomb." I was very impressed with the first session.
The second study is Beth Moore's Psalms of the Ascent. I haven't done a Beth Moore in a year or so, and I am looking forward to digging back in to the Word with her.
So-- life is back on track-- the routine has begun again.... and I am loving it. Fall begins such a wonderful time of year-- back to school, Halloween, hayrides, Gatlinburg Trip, Thanksgiving-- then Christmas!! Such fun! :)
I ordered Luke and Caroline's Halloween costumes today.... They will both be pirates! They are really into them right now.... photos to come! :)

I also love fall! Such a fun time of year. I would love to hear your thoughts on the Psalms study. I haven't done that one yet! I am getting ready to do Living Beyond Yourself again.
