Helping out

Our weekends have been filled with lots of activity, hard work, fresh air, & time with good friends.  The best thing ever for Trevin - 1 screwdriver & 1 tape measure.  Boy did he stay busy!!  Tightening screws & checking things out.  Benjamin worked hard along with Russell...moving, wiping, cleaning, etc.  Good times were had by all.  Now it is time for convention!

8 is Great!



Happy Birthday to our Benjamin!  I can't believe he's 8.  8 short years have flown by in nearly the blink of an eye.  In his opinion, nothing is better than a giant Round Rock donut, so we brought a big one plus several dozen to share at workday/preps....which happened to be his very birthday.  When he looked at the calendar last month & realized that his birthday fell on a workday, he was beyond happy.  He told me that this was going to be the best birthday ever. 


For his birthday supper, he requested a great Mexican restaurant...Mesa Rosa. 

Happy 8th Birthday, Benjamin!  You just told me tonight that next year on your birthday YOU are going to write ME a card because that is the day I gave birth to you.  And you said you are so thankful to be in our family.  How sweet!

Welcoming Sweet T

In the midst of September we hosted a Sip & See for a good friend from our Sunday morning meeting.  Joanna & Wayne have 3 boys...and now a GIRL.  I believe her addition makes 17 kids in our Sunday morning meeting (middle school age or younger).  I had some great help from my Mom & Joanna's sister, Jenny.  Thanks for all who came to meet Taylor.
