Pilgrims?

No!!! This is a dream come true for 2 big hearted and giving people. They are my parents and this is Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO.
Daddy out admiring the horses and probably on his way to visit the blacksmith or the potter. Mother and Daddy helped their basket teacher, Robbie, with her booth at the City. They packed up her van in Kansas one weekend, helped her set up in the City the next and went back later to help Robbie with her booth and to take it all down. Here Mother is giving a tutorial to whomever wants to wander by the booth. Getting to watch crafters at work is one of the charms of the City. I think Mother said that Robbie sold around 200 baskets. 4 of which were ones Mother had made. Those are genuine smiles! Silver Dollar City is a charming place that holds good memories for me.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

Friday night fun!

David was gone for the evening so I decided to let the kids make their own pizza. They loved this idea. I forgot to take pictures while Cameron was making his. He was done first. There aren't many things that I love to smell more than bread dough. Thanks to Jiffy we had pizza crust in a jify :-) The pizzas tasted delicious!

All Sarah Brooke wants for Christmas is...

her 2 front teeth. It was definetly time for them to come out.

Moments after the teeth came out.


She was very happy after the fact. I had a grip on the one and when it let loose it went airborne. There was a struggle in pulliing the first tooth so I'm still not exactly sure how the second tooth came out. She seems to loose teeth by 2's. Her new ones are already on their way in so we are crossing our fingers for some beautiful straight ones :-) I remember Cameron's wish was for really big teeth and it was rather shocking to watch very large teeth come in. ha They look really nice now.

Halloween weekend

Mother and Daddy came to town to go trick or treating with the kids. Out of all the holidays that we have been together they had never come for Halloween. We sure enjoyed our time together.

Halloween night we hosted our church's harvest party and trick or treating. It was a great time of being silly, eating lots of food and laughter.
