What We've Been Up To

The kids I and headed out to Shim Creek one afternoon.  It is so nice to have this scenery down the road.  We are feeling super blessed to being living in such a beautiful place! Owen was in charge of the camera this day!

                                             A little "2016 Year in Review" I had the kids do

      As a little writing assignment I had the kids make a flyer as if Martin Luther was coming to give a talk.  This is Meg's flyer.

During a move we always have somethings damaged.  This time my new linen couch cover was damaged.  I have filled out countless amounts of paperwork.  It is such a pain to file a claim for damaged goods.  I am sure they do this in the hopes that people will not jump through all the hoops in order to get a few dollars for their damaged goods.  But I am sticking with it. I am determined!  I will see this through.  I filed all the paperwork and now they want pictures!  So here are my pictures I'm sending to the moving company.  It will be interesting to see what they want next. I w....i..l..l  Not g..i..v..e..  u..p..!!

 Our schoolroom  

 The space under the clock is "Pascal's space"  He is working with the kids on a "project" .  More on that to come.

 Meg's corner

  We love riding our bikes.  Sometimes we go for a ride after lunch, on this particular day Owen was startled because this guy flew by him.

 This owl had such personality.  He would look and look at us then fly to a new branch.  We would follow him on our bikes.  Wish I had better pictures.

Owen started drumming lessons this week, I'm so hoping he will "stick" with it.  Selfishly as a piper I would love to have my own personal drummer! Poor guy has to have 5 teeth pulled on Tuesday. He just got braces a few weeks back.   I was looking through the photos on my phone to find one that showed his braces.  I found these.   This kid... is eating me out of house and home.  I can't seem to fill him up.  

This little one is growing into such a lady.

Here are two quotes from Mistress Meg

"Mom, I'm having such a good hair day...I sure hope I don't jinks it."

Meg and Owen LOVE Sister Schubert's Rolls.  Because of the holidays our grocery store had been out for awhile.  Last week we went by the frozen section to check for some and they had them!  Meg said, "Thank you LORD,  Mom isn't God good!"  

Amen sister!! We all love us some Sister Schubert's Rolls!

and thats a wrap!
