Post 106

This is our 106th post! :)

Tuesday night some of us went to hear and watch some friends perform a  Christmas string orchestra. They did really good, and we enjoyed it. :) 



 Yesterday, we made different cookies and chocolate goodies...We didn't get pictures of everything.

 And it was Sonya's 7th birthday. She got a homemade ice cream cake.

Today:

IT SNOWED!!!


 The guys were out hunting all day in the wet snow. So all their clothes were wet, and the floor is heated...I think the photo explains it's self. :)
 After dinner, they relaxed and watched the video of their hunt, and relived it while laughing heartily at themselves.

"Happenings from the past week"

Our cousins from New York have been staying with us now for a week. It's been a blast!
One of the days, the kids hot-glued candy together to make things.
 This is to be a truck
 Sam making his semi.
 All finished.
 We played lots of games...
 And made big messes with crayons to color
 Serena
 And then (of course) lots of volleyball! :)

 Annette and Brenda
One of the most played games was "The Settlers of Catan"
Midnight snack...
 Saturday morning, Uncle Eldon took us all out to eat for breakfast! :)
Some of us got so much food it hardly fit on the table! We did manage to eat all or most of it! By the way. :)
 Titus tryin' to look pretty :)
We made lookalike outfits for some of the girls. Sunday we took pictures.
 Susanna, Sharla, Sheila, and Brenda

 Sunday we visited a church, and since we didn't know anyone there (except for our friends and cousins who also were visitors) we kids lined up on the railing outside the door and clapped and cheered for everyone that walked out! When they ask what we were doing it for. We said, "We are just testing peoples sense of humor!"


This is just a few of the things that happened that we got pictures of. Things we didn't get pictures of was things like, Hauling hay, Spreading manure, Fixing the car, Dishes, laundry, school, etc.
