Today the excitement is building, looking forward to Stephen's ordination and Jacob's confirmation this weekend. Stephen was modeling his minister wear this evening and will be a very good looking pastor. Stephen and Betsy have been treated to dinner two nights in a row, last night with Stephen's grandmother and grandfather, tonight with some friends from church.

We have booked our flights to Amarillo for the installation service, which is set for Nov. 13. We are traveling with my Mom and Dad (as mentioned above) and that will make the trip extra-extra special.

We are well into fall. The leaves are absolutely gorgeous, especially in the late hours of sunlight. The temperatures are definitely turning cool. This morning it was 7 C on my drive to school, and 24 C on the drive home. We have large temperature swings during the day, something not found in Siantar!
