Catch Up Time

last round of garden goodness!

I left the peppers on so long

that they started turning red.

I will miss our yummy tomatoes.

my baby surprised me with a

cherry Halloween sprinkle donut

the other morning.

and coffee!  always coffee!

 

On the weekends when the weather

is chilly, Cody makes me coffee and

then goes out and starts us a fire.

We sit out and sip our drinks and chat.

I love it!

The boys happened to see an episode

of Bob Ross on pbs.  They were entranced

by how good he could paint and how

easy it looked.  We recorded a few shows

and one Saturday afternoon we gave it a shot. 

 

They loved it and their paintings

turned out so great!  I am so glad that they

have artistic interests just like me!

 

My Snookem started his new job!

We have hoped and prayed and wished

and waited and everything else in between

for this job. No more week after week of

being out of town and only seeing him on

the weekends. After 7 long years we've (I've)

had enough of that!! He has paid his dues

and worked hard to get this job. I am sooo

proud of him! He didn't have the best of

childhoods and he sometimes tells me a

new crazy story even now after

being married almost 13 years.

Some of which are so out there I didn't

 really even believe him. A few months ago

I had the pleasure of spending a whole

week getting to know his childhood

best friend ~ he confirmed EVERYTHING

and more of anything KC has ever

told me. And without me mentioning it first!

  A lot of those stories were heartbreaking

and made me really appreciate the person

he is today! He has never let any

of that be an excuse! If anything it pushes

him harder. While no one is perfect, he's perfect

 to us and we are so happy he's ours! 

Congratulations babe! I love you and

I am so very proud of you!

 

We have been very busy with the

butterfly!  Like VERY busy!

I love it and hate it all at the same

time.  There just are not enough

hours in the day.  I am hoping with

KC's new job things will change a bit.

 

 

KC will have a four day weekend

every other weekend!  Yes!!

Boys at school all day and KC home..

that will give us at least a full day of

working on butterfly stuff!  Yay!

I am sure he is so excited!

 

Kade got some carpenter lessons

the other day.  Hey, it's a family business.

 

The boys spent scout night at the

news station the other night

for their weather and communication

merit badges. 

They had a good time.

 

The time change means it's light out

in the morning and we can play ball

again.  The dogs love it!
