cant believe its been a month

I cant believe its been a month since I have updated my blog. I have been so busy.

This first picture is of leaves on our grass. There is a funny story about this picture. Last night Willie came into the house and said "You know I don't mind if the kids help the old lady next door... but I would prefer if they did not bring the leaves into our yard." I asked what he was talking about. Apparently Mary and Tay where raking up the leaves and then putting them in a pile in our yard. So we have a pile of leaves that are not from our trees. But hey what ever it takes right.
These are the trees that the girls got the leaves from I guess. But I thought they where pretty pictures any way. It is getting colder every day. The kids are getting ready for the snow and talking about what they are going to do in it.




























This is a carrot that Marybeth and I got our of our garden the other day. All in all the cold nights have made it to were things are dieing now. But the carrots are still going strong. It only takes one or two carrots for a meal. We really enjoyed the garden this summer and can't wait for next year.


This is a cute picture that I took of Taylor. She loves picking the flowers. I thought that this was a really cute picture.

I have talked to the older 3 kids teachers. They are all doing well. Daisy is above the normal in reading and vocabulary. She is also is getting really good a drawing. Marybeth needs to apply herself more and her scores will go up. She loves to write stories. John is above the curve and might be bored for a time while the rest of the class catches up. But he loves school. Taylor is doing great she is talking more and says the funniest things.

Willie and I are both working hard. We love our jobs. Wal-Mart has been a really great job for me. I love talking with the costumers. The mangers seem to really appreciate the work I do. I have made quit a few friends as well.
