Happies

*Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. This is some fall lovin. Don't skimp on the whipped cream. Just do it right.

*Thanksgiving at the Darby Cabin - I can't even begin to express how giddy I am to pack up our family and go to our cabin in the woods! The boys will hunt, the girls will cook and the kids will play. No technology, no cosmetics...just unplugged family bonding time. I can't wait!

*Music:
- Silversun Pickups: Lazy Eye
- Matchbox 20: The Difference
- U2: In a Little While - All You Can't Leave Behind
- Classical: Too many to list...but it grounds and relaxes me and I thank my Daddy for getting me hooked years and years ago

* Funny, funny moment here:

Story: So when Uncle Jason or "Mister Uncle" (an old Baylor Yell Leader) was in town for Homecoming, we had a minor trampoline rip..well, hole really. Does this stop us from having fun? Oh no! Nathan came outside to this - and yes, I am still dressed for church. I have to say that being right at Carson's eye level worked out quite well. HA!

*Last but certainly not least...it's Toffee time! My aunt taught me to make this when I was 7 years old and there hasn't been a year without it since. It's heavenly-love-deliciousness. I'll make you some if you just ask.

Here's to HAPPY!

Hope for Haiti

I don't know if many of you will remember this but I posted a note earlier this summer saying that I felt an overwhelming need to go to Haiti and help the children there. I had not been persuaded by anything - it was just one of those powerful moments that I decided to capture on paper in the event something ever came of it.

Little did I know our church, Fellowship Church, has a huge outreach in Haiti. In fact, we are sponsoring and building an orphanage there as we speak and they are looking for people to come and help. Umm..okay, where do I sign up? Please keep this in your thoughts and prayers. I have joined the Mission Team and there are several dates this year...so cross your fingers and let's see what happens.

Please listen to this beautiful song performed by our church that I just so happened to find today. Goosebumps. Is it odd or is it God? Just sayin...
