Wednesday

So I am driving my oldest to speech this afternoon and when we go to get out of the van into the 30 degree weather he tells me he isn't wearing his coat. When asked why my witty 5-year old says "I am going as a homey." So wanting to know his definition of a homey I ask what he means. He explains that a homey is someone who just wears a hat and no coat, that's cool. The battle begins.

Driving home from speech I get the question "Why do animals have to die?" I told him that things must die or there would be no room on this earth. "But mom, why do deer, chickens and ham have to die?" I giggled and let him know that Ham is not an animal. He cackles in his cute way and today I have something to blog about!!

It's been awhile

I have heard from more than one person that I suck at keeping up on this site. I have been busy with the boys so haven't had much luck at getting online to do much. We have gone on a farm tour - seen 4 different area farms with cattle, dairy cows, alpacas, llamas and a grainery. What an experience, I look forward to next year. We have gone to Fox Fire Farms for the Pumpkin lighting - seen over 100 pumpkins carved and lit. They did an awesome job and then the kids went in the straw maze and on the kiddie pillar ride.

I know this isn't much but I wanted to keep a few of my friends and family coming back to this site. This week we are getting ready for trick or treating, pumpkin carving, Halloween parties at school and of course speech. What a busy week!!

Take care and check back soon - I promise there will be something new to look at. I know my kids have been pretty tame lately but that just means they are brewing something big for me to write about.
