Sunday Glorious Sunday

What an amazingly beautiful day! It is nearly the end of Sept and we are experiencing better weather now than we did all summer.
Hubby and Bubbs made it back from Dads and Lads church camp last night. They smelt of bonfire and outdoors. The smile on Bubbs face is only just dimming. They went pot holing, grass sledging, orienteering and rock climbing. They both had a blast and we have heard never ending stories of the camp fire too. This was the best bit of the camp according to Bubbs.....nothing like a bit of fire for boys to play with...Apparently there was a lot of health and not so much safety! All in all a great time and we are now hoping they run a family one so we can all go.
Today after church we went to the Tree Park with the children and Mabel. This was her first visit to such a big place and one with so many dogs around. She was amazing and had such a great time...currently she is flat out on her bag in the corner. When we set off on our walk Hubby had such a big and serene smile on his face I could tell this was what he had been dreaming of for a long time. Our family is so enjoying having a dog and she is so gorgeous.

I have my first official engagement as Governor on Thursday, it is the school Harvest Festival so I am going to that ( I was going anyway but now have a purpose). In our church today we had another prompt about where we want our Harvest Offering to go to and it is so lovely to see the rest of the congregation getting to know about the school and area which is only just down the road from our church.

Will let you know how it goes.

The boys camping trip sounds like so much fun! It has been so hot here. I am ready for it to cool down a bit, not cold but cooler than what it has been. I was out walking with the kids today and we all got hot, sweaty and cranky! I heard we are in for a harsh winter though so I should be thankful that hasn't hit yet. Good luck on Thursday:)

Same kind of weather around these parts...I cannot believe it's fall with all of this sun and warmth. Fall rocks.

You will do great, you seem to be able to focus on the task at hand and get things done.
