Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!! We had a very nice dinener yesterday with some of the church people, now we are getting ready for our Dinner today. I only got ONE picture last night, but I'm gonna post it later anyway! Have a great day today!!!!

Hello!!

Just thought I'd let you know I do have some pictures for on here, but you probably won't get to see them until Mom and Dad leave. Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'm kinda excited for ours. We are going to have about 12 people coming. Plus we are having a Thanksgiving dinner for the church tomorrow night. Who knows how many will be there ;)

Four more days!

"What is that?" you ask? That is Donavan's countdown till Mimi and Pappy Jackson gets out here. The kids are very excited. As you can see, they have 4 days to wait. Scott is saying "14 days till they leave." LOL!!!!

Where's the Baby (Instead of Where's Waldo?)

Where's the baby?

Aaaahh! There she is!
We've had fun!!

Garrett decided to have a little fun with Charity. This was the results. She enjoyed itenough that she didn't want me to take her out.

They Sleep Where?

As some of you know, my kids like to sleep everywhere BUT their bedroom. Occasionally I will make them sleep there, but for now, they sleep in the livingroom most of the time. When I went to bed last night, Antonia was sleeping on the floor. This morning when I got up, I couldn't find her. Afer a while, I found her behind the endtable. There isn't much room, but tonight the kids were fighting over who would get to sleep behind the endtable. I have a few ideas for what I could turn their bedrooms into until they decide they'd like to sleep in them again :)

Well, it is about 8 days until Mom and Dad get out here. Tomorrow Garrett will have his extra done so he can have the time off while they are out here. Donavan has a little over half of his work done. Today was a really good day for Donavan. Hopefully he works that good tomorrow.
Other then doing extra time in school there hasn't been much happening.
Oh yeah, we did hit a deer with our car. One of Scott's friends was giving him a rough time and told him he couldn't get one in the woods so he had to hit it with the car. It did about 3,000 dollars worth of damage. If i have time, I'll put some pictures on in a couple days.

Canning

I decided to give canning a try this year. I've enjoyed it for the most part...especially because Scott would help cut stuff up in the evening :) The kids enjoyed helping some, too. Donavan especially enjoyed it if it got him out of school work. Below are some pictures of Garrett helping me can applesauce. I want to say a special "Thank you" to Pat Troyer and Charlotte Meador for all their help. Pat and her husband let us use half their garden since we don't have anywhere to plant one. I also used her canner when she wasn't using it.

I caught Charity mopping my floor the one day. She looked like she was really enjoying herself.
