PLUS - we enjoyed a repeat performance of the Thriller dance. This time in the dark driveway with headlights for spotlights, casting dancing zombie shadows on the garage. (unfortunately, I don't have a video of that)

This was also a good meal-planning week now that we've gotten back to our e-meals menus.

This week's best was an Italian-sausage soup -- totally yummy

Our 16-year-old son was nominated to apply for the United States House of Representatives page program. The application went in this week; if he's accepted he'll be leaving us for D.C. in January and not coming home until June. As hard as that will be, we're praying this opportunity will work out for him. Really praying.

Brian and I booked our plans to celebrate our twentieth anniversary at the end of the month. We're not going to go far, but it was fun to make the plans and look forward to them for a few weeks.
