Well, we didn't do anything special for Labor Day since Ryan had to work, but that is ok. The kids hung out while I stressed about our family comming in from out of state later this week. So I have started the major washing of the baseboards and scrubbing stains that the other peeps left in the carpet before we bought the house not to mention I picked the color for the kitchen and I think I have decided that when I get home from Derby Dinner Playhouse tomorrow night, I will do the masking tape around the baseboards, outlets, windows, and paint in the kitchen as late as possible hopefully having it done before I go to bed. I will definately post pics as I do the project. I will be so happy when I have the kitchen done. I will feel like the house is really mine. I have chosen a color called Chili Pepper. It is a really nice red. Kenzie went to school happily today like always and came home with a note in her folder stating that she was the FIRST to learn ALL of her friends names.

Maddie has been a little testing today, but we are getting through it. And now I am off to finish a few things like a load of dishes, laundry, etc...

It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways. Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be
