Are you smarter than a Kindergartner?

Carter this morning-

"Mom, when I was born you TOTALLY spelled my name wrong. It should have been c-a-r-D-e-r. That spells Carter."

Don't you love it when they get into Kindergarten and think they are smarter than you!

This man

This man was up all night working in the dark, cold rain, while we were cozy and warm in our beds. This man has made sacrifices...for us. He works hard, never gives up and strives to do his best...because of us. He will miss out on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day....because he will be working to provide for us. I spend so much time gushing over my kids and ooing and awing over their accomplishments, that I forget the guy who is usually behind the scenes, making it all possible. Sometimes I forget how much he has on his plate, and I need to remind myself, and the kids, how fortunate we really are!



These guys are pretty lucky to have a daddy that is so crazy about them...and they are equally crazy about him! Daddy had been working nights, and it was time for them to wake him up. I can't think of a better way to be woken up. :)

Cowboys and Indians

The kids were looking forward to our annual harvest party for weeks! This is definitely the highlight of harvest for our kids. My aunts, cousins, grandma and mom work really hard to make this day special for the kids.

Coleson, the brave Indian Warrior :)
