October

Sorry it has taken so long to get this post written.  Between taxes, wedding prep, pre-marital counseling, etc. life has been crazy!  Also, there were not really any huge moments in October.  I keep trying to write some funny and grandiose blog post, but all I got in October is helping out with a youth group Halloween deal and getting sick...I think.

Let's talk Halloween.

Aaron, head of Student Life at New Life, asked Sommer if she would help with the Halloween festivities this year.  She said yes and asked if I wanted to help her.  I thought it sounded fun.

They were doing a murder mystery of some sort and people were having to dress up and do some crazy things around Morton.

Sommer and I lucked out.  Our job was to sit around a campfire cooking S'mores (or however it is spelled) and running the games as our station....also it was dark and we were at a campfire so we also took it upon ourselves to kiss whenever we could.....to stay in character of course.

We took this picture by the light of our campfire


The youths would show up and have to complete a challenge to get the next clue.  The funniest challenge was always having to give us piggy back rides.

They always wanted to have to give Sommer a ride and not me so much....one guy tried and failed.  Kids....

We did have a discussion on October 31st-ish in which I told Sommer that "I think I might be starting to fall in love with you."

That would basically be the dam breaker that lowered our shields and made us both start to realize how much the other person really meant to us.

So October....building the relationship...piggyback rides....professions of true and abiding love coming soon!

Up next: November, the Cissna Trip
