Some November from phone.

 sorry if you've seen these.
 Barry got a little tractor from his dad. He fixed it up and got it running, it took him awhile, so it was a proud moment when he got to drive his victory lap around the yard.

Go Dad!

 Nutella and jam on a homemade doughnut. Don't do it. ;)

 Another reason you should stay away from the canal. These little guys might pinch you. James and Ellie caught about 30 of them.

 staying out late on our land to see the stars.

 James took this photo. He came and asked for my phone to take a picture. He says he took it to make me happy.

 I let him suck on an apple. Gave him a rash. Poor boy.

 6 more cavities filled for Lauren.

 Literacy Night at the Elementary School. I got coerced into volunteering. The kids had fun.

 Emmie's birthday!! She's 3!!!!! We love her soo much. I got a migraine, hopefully, I have more pics on my camera.

 We drove over to our land to cut a club for Barry's friend to club things with.... Anyway, when we drove up, I saw a strange animal run into those trees. A bobcat maybe???? It was super cool. :)

 Daddy putting Owen down for a nap. This is pretty typical.

 Owen loves to sing. If you sing to him, he can't help but chime in.

 He's disappointed when you stop....

 We finally got some firewood and the kids helped daddy stack it. I think Owen and I stayed in and watched a movie. Brrrrrrr

Singing again

 Some Thanksgiving pictures. We had a quiet Thsnksgiving at home. Barry's parents joined us. More pics to come.

 apparently olives stick in your teeth. Guess that's what I get for snitching olives from Grandma before dinner.

 Infamous Butter Turkey. The kids wanted me to buy this soo bad. I broke down and got it for them. They were just so fascinated by it.

 Owen loves the Christmas tree and tries desperately to get to it.

 sweet James saw his struggle and picked him up and sat in the chair next to the tree with him and just let him look and look. :D

 I must say we inspired several people to get doughnuts. It was wayyy too cold to eat them outside, and there was no way I was letting them eat them in the car.
