School Christmas Program

Well yes the annual Elem entry School program came this year and we had not one, not two, but three little stars! Allie most likely made the most animated this year. If you listen carefully you can hear her echo the words to the song. (on the off beat). They were all so excited and reminded me at least four times the night before to put curlers in their hair. They wanted to look just their best. Hope you enjoy the performance. We sure did. Although the boys did not make the program they had a little act of their own.

Venture Theater

Faith Participated in the Elementary Schools Venture Theater Program
this year. They spent a week practicing, And then performed for the school one morning and the parents that evening. Faith was so excited! If you remember anything about Faith is that she is quite the performer. She reminded the girls in front of her twice that they needed to leave her a window.(making sure she was seen by all) She knew all her parts and sang well. We all enjoyed watching the program. Way to go Faith. We look forward to seeing her and her sisters perform next week in the schools annual Christmas program.

Snow, Snow and More Snow

Last weekend it dumped on us. We had TONS of snow. It was cold but the kids did not seem to mind. They kept Grandma and me busy climbing up the back hill over and over again, helping them with their sleds. Bret's mowing job over the summer has seem to come in handy. He told me mowing the back hill would be a great idea! And yes it is a smoother ride down the hill. Thanks Honey!!

Gold medal in the making

Well I attended my first meet as a mom. I was so proud of Faith. I am sure thease videos will bring back memories for my mom. Faith earned a ribbon on each event. She was so excited to have performed so well.

Little climbers

Listen for the video where Allie continues to say. "Mommy I wanted to go higher" as if she had not already climbed almost completly to the top, she wanted to go further. Most of the little kids were too nervous or scared to even attempt climbing the wall.I quess my girls are turnning our to be more like their Mom than I had hoped.

Buddy's Vacation

Yes even the dog needs a vacation sometimes! Bret took Buddy Bird hunting last week with some of my family,(my Dad, Brother and some uncles and cousins) I am glad he was able to go and enjoy himself. He talked some of them into stoping by our house on the way home for some waffles. I was so glad they stopped and stayed the night. I enjoy seeing family, it is always a blessing.

Halloween Visitors

We were so lucky to have our cousins come and visit for the weekend. We had so much fun together. I think they left knowing they could not have fit in one more thing. We stayed busy with Halloween parties, Truck or Treating, Cake Decorating and FUN, FUN, FUN. Little Autumn even made the evening News. She was getting her face painted when the 2 news station decided to Zero in on her little face. I was so glad for DVR, we were able to watch it that evening. Here are a few Snapshots of the Weekend.






Jace explains it perfect in this picture how much fun we all had in this weekend.
Another little tid bit about Jace, this last week he has wore his fireman costume EVERY DAY. Axe and all. We almost lost the Axe at Wendy's resturant once. I have never seen a child more excited for Halloween. It was better than Christmas for him.
