Thankful

This is the day to reflect on all things we are thankful for. As I was thinking of all the things I have in my life, family, friends, food, a roof over my head and all the comforts I could ask for, I realized I am most thankful for a turkey, a ham and a cheese ball! My cheese ball

Happy Thanksgiving to all, I hope you remember all the wonderful things you have in your life to be thankful for!

Random Happenings

We are here and settled in Dothan, and are trying to figure life out here. It is great, and besides cramped quarters, I can't complain. It has been a while, so I am just posting a few random pictures of the fun we have found here so far. Olivia with her hair done pretty before she pulls it out, every morning!

Grace and Jed fishing in their boats

The kids with big sticks trying to knock down pine cones from the trees behind our apartment. Not in the picture is a couch we have sitting on the lawn. We have been meaning to get rid of it, but it has proved useful in sitting outside and watching the kids. I have now come to decided, When in Rome...

Racing cars in the hall. It is about 8 feet long and not too thrilling, but we have spent some quality time there. Even Olivia gets in the action.

Moving Day

The day has finally come where we will live together once again. We had the trailer delivered today and are packing away everything. Tomorrow we have some free helpers and are loading up and heading to our new tiny apartment!!! Hopefully before too long we will be in a new house. Why does it always look worse before it gets better?
Our trailer! It makes it all seem so much more real.

When I picked up Jed from his last day of school, his teacher had made him a very cool pirate cake and had brought in pirate hats for all the kids to wear in honor of Jed.
When we picked up Grace, her teachers had given her some presents and then told us that Grace had requested their email addresses. I laugh every time I think about it, how does a 4 year old mind work?
