PLAYING IN THE FALL LEAVES

Daddy built a rope swing for the kids that hangs from our big tree in the backyard

We are so enjoying the fall weather. Madison was raking leaves for a big leaf jump later! There were a TON of leaves in the yard!

It's always a good day for rain boots! They are Nick's favorite! Thank you for bringing me a drink, sweet boy!

Daddy get them HIGH in the air! You feel like you are flying!! The kids cannot get enough!!

Even Max got to get in on the fun!! He loves running around the yard with all of us!

After the BIG leaf jump, we rested for a few minutes for a quick picture for the Christmas card. What a blessed family day! Thank you Lord for my family!

We had a party with all of our friends. It was a very fun night. Madison was Daphanie from Scooby Doo. Savannah was Scooby Doo, and Nicholas was a knight in shining armor. Jeremy and I were of course, Bacon and Eggs.

A Halloween Pedicure for little girls! How cute!

Pumpkin Patch

The weekend festivities started out with setting up the pumpkins patch. Here are my Pumpkins picking their pumpkins. We unloaded a truck filled with 100's of pumpkins and set up the patch for the festival. The weather was perfectly cold for us! Perfect for the event. We had hot chocolate too.

Camping
55 degrees and raining! It was quite an fun experience. Daddy set up our nice roomy tent and bought the kids "mummy" style sleeping bags. The kids hung out at the fall fest all day and then the Principal at the children's school read a bedtime story and they watched a movie on a 50 ft movie screen out on the baseball field. The whole family spent all weekend up at the church/school and had a lot of fun. This event preceded a week long flu experience for our family and 4 other families that camped with us......Is there a connection??

Flu 2009

I love my family! I wonder what kind of a person I would be without them. They are sanctifying me each day. My three children are all sick right now with the flu! Every mom worries when her children are sick, but a part of me feels blessed for the opportunity to really serve them and show them how much I truly love them. Our daily activities have been put on hold and we are just focusing on each other. I chart their medicine and temperatures. Give them extra baths, wash everything that they are going to put into their mouths, and just snuggle them trying to make the pain go away. They are sleepy and whiny and so so sweet! They are little and they need their mommy!

Little Kittens

They sleep like little kittens with their legs and arms intertwined, keeping each other warm. There is something magic about a hide-a-bed. It is such a treat to sleep together on the pull out couch! Happiness should always be this easy!

Secret Hiding Places
I think that everyone loves hiding places! Madison and Savannah created a secret hiding place in the airplane using one of their blankets during our summer vacation to the Bahamas. How creative they are!
