Pumpkin Patch

We went to the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago. I now have the chance to sit down and post. The pumpkin patch was good, but not like the ones in Virginia. That is what I miss the most is the fall and the pumpkin patch with the kids. I do not think the kids know any different. We went and rode the carousel, and then they rode the ponies. Abby liked the ponies best of all. When we went on the hay ride, they gave you this long lecture about staying on the other side of the yellow tape and you could only get the little pumpkins sitting out. Jacob of course picked up every pumpkin he could to look at the bottom and make sure it was a good one. He finally settled on one.

Jacob with his little pumpkin. Abby and Jacob as you come in to the farm. As you can see Abby is not smiling, because she wanted to go and ride the ponies and not have her picture taken.

All I want for Christmas is my TWO FRONT TEETH

Well Abby lost her two front teeth. She is soooo excited. Every time I look at her I just smile. She looks so cute. She lost the first top tooth some time last week, and then lost her other one today on her way home from school. She can't wait to see what the tooth fairy is going to bring her. Last time she got two real dollars. That is what she calls money real. When she lost her bottom teeth she got Disney dollars since we were getting ready to go to Walt Disney World. My little girl is growing up so fast.

Veggie Tales

Monday night we went and saw Veggie Tales. The kids had a great time it was the one that God Made you Special. Bob was missing and we had to try and find him. The kids danced and played the whole time. They really did a great job with this I would go see it again, even if the kids do not want to go.

If you have kids that love veggie tales you have to try and take them, it was great.

The veggies on stage.
You see a guy setting on the steps that is so no kids can get on stage. I thought that was kind of funny until they ask the kids to come near the stage to dance and they blew bubbles also. The kids went crazy. Bob and Larry.

Super Incredible weekend

We had a great weekend. Our church had there annual super incredible weekend. You bring your family and have speakers and worship time. This year was the amazing race, we got to race around Choctaw and try to find clues, at every clue there was a mission that you prayed for. You would not believe all the different missions that are going on around the country. One of the stops was for the Appalachian people. We knew about this one when we lived in Virginia. The stops had something to do with every mission it was great the kids loved it. When we got there we had our pictures taken for our passports. Then off to breakfast and games. We also made our family flag which was fun. Mike got to do some of this with us before he had to go to work. Then we had a guest speaker Mark Jones he was very good, the music was also good. We had lunch then off to the race. What a great time we had. We also watched a movie outside Flywheel which was very good also. The kids loved laying under the stars to watch the movie.

I am so glad that God has blessed us with a good church, and church family.

Grandparent Day

I know that this post is late, but better late than never!!

Abby got to stay the night with my mom, by herself without Jacob. My mom took her to school for a grandparent picnic. She had a great time as did granny grunt as Jacob and Abby call her(my mom), and Oma(Mike's mom). They had ham sandwiches, chips, water, and teddy grahams. They had a great time. What memories they will have. The class made a quilt to go to the highest bidder it was a silent auction. We did not win, but it was very cute it was the class hand prints. The money goes to the teacher not the school which I am glad she can buy things she needs for her class books, or art that they do during the year. Abby at the picnic look at how happy she is.

I have a girly girl

Well the other night Abby and Jacob stayed the night with there Oma. There was a little girl at church that had her nails done. Abby wanted hers done, but as everyone knows I do not have mine done, so why would I pay to have Abby's done. Oma could not have this so we met them at the mall. Abby and Oma went to have there nails done, while I took Jacob shopping for some new clothes. Mike was with us. He said that he could not find us so he went to the movies and left me with the kids. How nice is he???????????? Jacob was very tired and I had to get on to him in the store and he was so cute, because he said can I just go home and take a nap. I said yes as soon as dad gets done at the movie!!!!

Abby had the best time getting her nails done. She wants to go again and get a different color in two weeks since this polish should come off by then. I told her I did not know, that maybe we could do this at home.
