A few weeks ago we went with our friends the Cordano's and Barb to Galena Creek for a family photo shoot. Our Pastor Akash who has a side business/hobby of photography took our family photos. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining, warm weather and the leaves turning. We had fun laughing and enjoying the day the Lord had made. :) Akash did such a great job!!!
The kids got their snow boots in the mail and Ashten got his snow suit. Gracie was able to get hers from a friend. So now we just need some snow!!!!
We finally got our a new camera. Was at costco and they had an amazing deal on a camera so I snatched it up. :) It is so weird without a camera and not being able to capture all the phone moments life has. Here are a few shots of the kiddos being silly.
We have a new additon to our family......Lynley the Second. :0 ) Our friends had a connection to a yorkie puppy and thought of us right away since we had lost our first puppy several months ago. We were visiting them to pick up some firewood and the doggy and its owner happened to be there that day. ;) The owner just wanted him to go to a good home and was not charging for him. So after holding him and playing with him for a little while we decidied to take him home. He looks so much like our first puppy. We felt like we went back in time. We still had most of our stuff so it has been an easy transition. :) He is full of energy loves to play with his mini tennis ball.
Me and the kids went out to visit Memaw for the afternoon. We had a great time looking through old family photos and learning to crochet. And saw all the new projects that they are working on.
We also spent a day in Quincy and Greaeagle with my mom for her birthday. It is so fun to get away and still be only an hour from home.
Our front porch is soon to be completed. Keller has been working on it every chance he gets. The projects all seem to take longer than they used to. :) It really looks great and is a nice addition to the front of the house. Will be posting pictures soon.
Gracie and Ashten are doing great in school and having a wonderful time learning. It has been a great blessing to have a homeschool schedule this year. We have our first break coming up starting on Ashten's 4th birthday and going through that week ending with Thanksgiving. Gracie is about to loose her 4th tooth!!! She has already lost three on the bottom and her two front teeth are loose as well. She is growing up so fast.
Hope you are all doing well and are having a blessed year!
Last friday afternoon I tried to turn on the washer but no water came out.....thought I was going to get a new washer. :) And then tried to make lunch and the sink did not work. So next I went outside to see water just coming up out of the ground and realized that something was wrong with either a pipe or the well pump. Keller came home and we got to digging and found the pipe repaired it and by that evening had water back on in the house. There always seems to be something to do around here planned or unplanned. :) We did get the front yard seeded and if all the bunnies, doves and quail don't eat them all we will soon have grass.
We had our first day of school on August 31st. We also have started a new blog about our homeschooling and I hope to update weekly. It should be lots of fun. http://www.shepherdingourkids.blogspot.com/ I hope you all enjoy seeing what the kiddos are learning.
