Happy September!

It's a very warm end-of-summer day here in Missouri!  97 degrees is a little warm compared to the 70's and 80's we had over the weekend!  I hope that you all had a fantastic Labor Day weekend!  We went out of town and enjoyed some time outdoors and on the river (& had lots of rain, courtesy of Hurricane Isaac coming through!


Here are a few pics from our weekend near Van Buren, MO:







FAITH:
Last night we sat down & had a family devotional.  It was nice to just have some quality family time with God & discussions!  We talked about how being close isn't the same as being fully invested.  You may be an excellent person that doesn't do anything bad, which is fantastic; however, if you haven't accepted Jesus & been saved, then you still won't go to heaven.  You can't get there by works, and this was a great topic to discuss with an 11 year old!

Today's verse on YouVersion is from Matthew-

"Jesus answered by quoting Deuteronomy: 'It takes more than bread to stay alive.  It takes a steady stream of words from God's mouth.'"  Matthew 4:4 (MSG)

FAMILY:
It's been a family filled weekend!  I spent Friday, Saturday & Sunday with Pat & some great friends.  Yesterday, Elisabeth came home & we went to my Grandma's for a fish fry with the family!  It was a great time, full of tasty food & good conversations!  Here are a few pics of Elisabeth & my nephew from yesterday (isn't he handsome?!)



FITNESS:

Other than the crazy amounts of food consumed over the weekend, my fitness & nutrition is going well! 
My classes are going great- we had a really good HIIT class this morning!  I think everyone thought it would be easy since it was all body weight- but it was definitely a challenge!

Have a wonderful day friends!
Jen :)
