So I don't really have any actual news, but it's been nearly a month since I posted last, so I figure it's high time to update.

| Our ready-for-fall front door :-) |
Fall has arrived here in Maryland. Trees are starting to turn colors and the weather is pretty awesome - usually in the 60s and 70s during the day, and in the 40s at night. I don't feel ready for winter, but that is normal. In fact, I find it pretty weird that summer only lasts for the standard 3 months here, I'm still used to Texas weather. I bought some mums and pansies last weekend, but forgot to buy a little shovel (a trowel? a spade?), so they are still sitting on the patio waiting for me to plant them. Hopefully I'll get to that before they die. I don't have the best luck with plants.
We haven't done any more improvements to the house. We still have pictures waiting to be hung from when we moved in. We'll get to them eventually! Having a job has greatly limited the time I have to work on house things. Which is good in that I don't have time to spend as much money, but bad in that stuff doesn't get done for weeks on end, because when the weekend rolls around, James and I want to do fun things.
Speaking of the job, it is going well. Emma is 4 months old now and super smiley and sweet. She rolled over for the first time the other day soon after I left for the day, the little stinker. I don't love being at someone else's house all day, but I definitely love taking care of Emma!

| So adorable |
I lead a youth girl's group at my house (through our church), we host our small group here as well, and I have worship band practice every week, so we keep pretty busy during the week. We love having a house where we can host events and have people over! It is such a blessing, plus it forces me to keep my house clean! We are having a Halloween costume party this year and I'm already excited. I'm not a huge Halloween person, but I do love dressing up/wearing costumes, so that is fun. I've got a few fun decoration ideas and I just ordered my fair trade chocolate! It should be fun.
