What we've been doing...

After a summer filled with events, celebrations, and activities, it was quite refreshing to enjoy an entire weekend at home, just doing everyday things around the house.  Normally, this would be the first weekend of the Red Wings' training camp, however, because the CBA expired, the NHL and its' players are currently on strike.  So as of right now, Randy will be home with us just a bit longer. Even though we're soaking up every minute of his time, we are looking forward to the start of season, whenever that might be. 
Today was the start of Sunday School at our church.  This is the first year that Helaina is able to go to an actual "class."  She was excited to attend, and lucky for her, her cousin and Godmother, Emann, is one of her teachers!

Our little man isn't so little anymore! Daddy dressed him this morning to cheer on his team, the Lions.  Will we have a future Stafford and QB? Who knows, but he sure does look handsome!

And I've been quite busy with an exciting and new ministry we are bringing to our church!  Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori-based religious education program that is gaining popularity throughout the country and has been adapted for various religious affiliations.  Myself and two other women from church have committed to 90+ hours of individual training to become a trained catechist.  I feel strongly that this program and approach to religious education will provide our children and the children of our parish a unique and personal relationship with God and Jesus, the Good Shepherd.  Please keep us in your prayers as we need a lot of support to make this program successful!
