Whats happening in our corner...

I know...I know...I am THE worst blogger ever! Aha! I think that Gracie and Tammy K. are two of the most faithful that I know. Kudos girls!

Well...we had a photo fund raiser that went so awesome!!!! We sold 84 sittings and made around $1,500!!! Woo Hoo!!!! Mandie worked very hard on this project and everyone was helpful. God has really blessed us.

The next fundraiser is beginning the day after Thanksgiving. Bro. Johnny is going to be the mall Santa. Daniel maybe with Caleb's help will be the photographer and while they are doing that I will be heading up a gift wrap stand. Wow "go us" right? Pretty busy season for all of us. Libby and I have also began working with our kids on our Christmas program. We are also doing a children's Christmas choir. It is soooo much fun! I am finding great deals on our wardrobe etc. Paul is collecting large cardboard from Sears. Him and Daniel will be putting together a 3D background for our Nativity. We have such a great group of people with so many varied talents...more of Gods goodness.

School is going great for Noelle. I LOVE having her with me. I thank the Lord that I am able to stay home with her. She is growing into a beautiful and sweet young lady.

I loved watching her get her photo done and then her and her best friend McKenna did some together that are going to be so adorable. Thomas was soooo very cute in his little hat and him and Ema did great! We got one big family one with us and all of our kids! So thankful that Paul and Grace were here for it.

Daniel has been living here a while now and I have to say he is so much fun to have around. These boys keep us laughing non-stop. Plus they are teaching Emily how to be funny. :)

Well more for another time.

Our Kids

Garden Frog

I took this in Moms patio garden.

Daniel and Paul to the rescue!

Hey meet Patcha the Quaker Parrot. She belongs to Mckennas family. Well Patcha got loose outside and was flying from tree to tree in our neighborhood. I got home from the store around 2:30 pm and saw Macs mom Katherine and her brother Trevor looking up into a tree across the street from our house. Patcha had been on the fly since 9:30 that morning!!! They tried every way they could to get her down. They even called the fire department and animal control who both refused to help! PSH! So I called for Daniel and Paul to come out and help. They threw a lot of tennis balls up at her and she just stared at them...didnt even flinch. So they got one of Kirbys really tall ladders and Dan climbed the tree which completely and totally was giving me heart palpitations! I had horrible visions of him falling and me having to call his Mother!!! O My Word! So anyway Daniel threw one more tennis ball and away she flew to a lower tree. So the boys moved the ladder and Katherine who is very afraid of heights climbed up to call her down. We figured that she would come down for her. The boys gallantly held the ladder. Patcha came right to Katherine! She was thankful and happy to get her bird back into her cage...safe and sound. None of us could bare the thought of Mckenna loosing one of her favorite birds. We are all thankful. Oh and thats Dan WAYYYYYY up in that tree!

Fun at the Park!

We have all decided to take up Tennis! So well yeah...we get a lot of laughs and a lot of fun!!! And hopefully a lot of exercise! Go Us! :)

Go Blue Ponies!

Ok so we went to the Football game that Daniel was covering! Woo Hoo we won! Then we went to Pizza where Ema decided to have some Root Beer! :)
