Time to go home...

The kids didn't want to leave Grammy's so their daddy made a deal with them. They had to get their Aunt Char to ride over on the four wheeler. They called over to her house and of coarse she didn't answer. The tears were flowing. Grammy even tried and still no answer. My sister loves the outdoors and I knew it would be next to impossible to get a hold of her but thought maybe there may be a miracle that she would come inside and check her messages. After about 15 minutes or so here she came. She was on the four wheeler with two of her grandbabies. Eric was shocked...now he had to stay an extra day!! YEA!! The kids had a blast!

Christmas at our house!!

I can't believe how fast the time went. We had a wonderful christmas together. Here are a few pictures!!

My Uncle Oty sent this to me! It is a fantastic idea.
When doing your Christmas cards this year, take one card and send it to this address. If we pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful special people who have sacrificed so much would get.When you are making out your Christmas card list this year, please include the following:

A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue,NW
Washington,D.C. 20307-5001

Hard working man....

Yea!! We are laying the floor in our kitchen that was flooded by the dishwasher while we were away :( . Eld had to take off all the trim and replace the patio doors and the two side windows. (which are not in yet) The entire area is going to be redone. I am so glad that it is starting to look better.

They finished the quilt for my cousin's wife Cheryl. It is beautiful. Please pray for all of them.

We went over to my sister's place and took some fall pictures! He is just the cutest little guy around! He did so good and really smiled for us.

Pumpkin patch...

Picking out the gourds!! The kids had so much fun. They didn't want to leave.

We went to Snow Flake, AZ to the Pumpkin Patch for a homeschool field trip. The kids had so much fun. Of course Brent wanted the biggest pumpkin he could find. He loves anything that grows. I will have to post some pictures of him in his garden.

Quilt squares for my cousin...

My cousin's wife was diagnosed with breast cancer and her sweet sister-in-laws are making a lap quilt for her. They asked for quilt squares and so I made two, one for my mom and me. My mom is embroidering our names on them and also the antennas on the butterfly. She can take it to her treatments. If you go to Purina cat chow's web site and take a test on your knowledge of breast cancer they will donate $1.00 to the Susan G. Koman foundation. The questions are not difficult and keep you going until you guess them correctly. Only 5 questions. Here's the web site:
