Pig Tails

Julianne sported her first set of pig tails today!

It took a lot of water to get her hair slicked back,

I think we will try just the upper part of her hair next time, the back is still rather short from where she rubbed it off as an infant.

Until next time...

Hey, Hey, We're the Monkeys...

I took the kiddos to the New Harmony park today.  They were both bound and determined to conquer the monkey bars tonight.  I'm proud to say, they were both successful!

Until next time...

Clearance Fun

I will be the first to admit, I love to shop a couple days after a holiday and grab up on the clearance fun!  Today, while at Wal-Mart, they had Halloween marked down 75%, and Target had their things 90% off.  I not only found crafts/projects to do with the kiddos, but I was able to buy all of them costumes for next year. Yes, they will even get a choice...I got 2 for each of them!  OK...back to our project for today - pumpkin shaped rice krispies.

They concentrated and worked so hard on their designs.

And, they were pretty proud of the end results!

Until next time...

Look Out...

...we have another walker on our hands!

Until next time...

Plowing

The weather was finally right to allow Doug to get the tractor and plow out of the barn and work the garden.  We were not able to do this last year, and sadly, we had a lot of weeds this past summer.  Let's hope this will help control the weeds much better!

Unfortunately, it got too dark once Doug was finished with the garden that we were not able to clean the plow and paint the moldboards.  Therefore, he had to plow some of the back lot to clear the moldboards.  Dallas and Reba thought it was the best thing to run up and down the furrows! 

(The cats loved running in the "dead furrow" as well, watch closely and you can see them too.)
