carpe diem - 36!

10.03.2010

i decided to "seize the day" on Saturday - and came up exhausted! no surprise there, but we didn't take pictures ... so we snapped one today.



















It was a good day. First Sunday back at church - the new pastor and his family were there for THEIR first Sunday - and my broccoli salad was a hit at the potluck (thanks Rosa!). I'm not normally a chocolate-cherry fan, but there was a delicious chocolate-cherry cake that i nibbled on too. mmm.

After Jeremy helped unload the moving truck (big day for the pastor!) - we went on a pumpkin date. :-) He let me amuse myself by keeping it a secret, but he's good at figuring things out. TOO good sometimes. My friend, Amanda, told me about a pumpkin patch then visited, so we go to go pick out pumpkins! It was dusty and Jackson decided to roll in the dirt, but that's not unusual. Ha. We walked our way (slowly) through the pumpkins until we decided on a couple. We got 2 little ones for Jackson and the Baby - just to be funny - and walked back. It was so fun! And what a beautiful day.

Here's a peek.































Jeremy found one!













Jackson got some sun on his nose!



















and I found my pumpkin too! just as big as the belly. :-)

then we drove to Sheridan's for a latte and a pumpkin pie concrete (SOOO good!).
what a fun day!

    Happy haircut! It is very cute.
    It is funny to look at your pictures now and remember your concern about not showing much. :) There should be no mistake now, you are indeed a pregnant woman! Yay! Wish I could have been there to help you celebrate your day of freedom!
    Continuing to pray for you.

  4. Hooray, you're up! Are you tired? I was away from Internet for the last week and I was thinking about you and your escape from bedrest. Congrats for making it the whole time!

    You look great! And I hope you get to "enjoy" this last bit, being out and about and proudly pushing your belly in front of you :-) Sorry sleeping seems to be a bit of a challenge at the moment. Some say it gets you ready...hm never was so sure about that. Anyway, can't wait to hear how you're getting on and to see little Shunk baby!!
