We had a very special time with Grandpa Moran & Joan! A fun filled weekend...with going to a baseball game, playing baseball at the park, receiving gifts....and going out to eat! What a fantastic, sweet time of visiting with them that we will never forget!!
Every Tues we have a little playgroup at our home. We have Olivia & Baby Gabe, born Sept. 3 09, Marcella and Baby Gabriella, born April 13, 09, and a new one on the block, Melissa with Baby Ryan born just this Oct 14!!
We have so much fun hangin with the babes!
This year our family celebrated one of the Lord's Feasts, The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot! It's a time to remember how faithful our God is...that He is our provider and to remember when the Israelites were freed from slavery from the Egyptians...and how God "tabernacled" or "dwelt with" his people during the 40 years in the desert. We also remember Jesus Christ's birthday, as it is thought to be the more accurate time-frame, that during this time He was born in Jerusalem...again we remember God coming to "dwell" with his people! A time of JOY and thanksgiving!
We made a "Sukkah" on our front porch to resemble how the Israelites tabernacled with God for 40 years in the wilderness. It was a time of great challenge...but God was their provider! Their shoes never fell apart nor their clothes, and he provided their food from heaven, manna! The tradition is to build a Sukkah to remember the times when our ancestors "roughed it" in the wilderness...but yet we exalt God because he remained faithful to provide for their every need! Well... I decided to go on a palm branch hunt in our empty lot behind our house. I was determined...but it had gotten dark, so Patrick decided to take the truck and shine the headlights in order to find some palm fronds. Well....because of my stubbornness...the truck got stuck. I mean...really bad! We had a dear friend come help us pull it out! Of course the Moran's always have to have a funny story to go along with their "firsts" in life! So there it is!!!
Here's a link in case you want to look up more info on Sukkot - The Feast of Tabernacles.

Nevan loves Uncle Kev's gift, a very soft sweet book about Peter Rabbit!
Luke finally is taking somewhat of an interest in Nevan!
Nevan got two bottom teeth around the first of Sept., and now his top two teeth have also pushed through just within the past week!
He is soooooo happy all the time!
