Fall is Here

I suddenly remembered this morning that I have a blog I am supposed to be keeping updated! Well, not quite that bad! You are probably thinking that I should have lots of pictures to put on; sorry to disappoint you, but no. Aside from school, not much has happened, so there is only a few pictures.
School is going good. Some days are better than others, depending on Treyton's attitude, but that has improved too.
Fall, my favorite time of year, has come in the South. It has gotten quite chilly! It was 80* last week, now the day warms up to maybe 60*, so it feels cold!

Foxy, never wanting to miss out on the action, went along on our walk. He actually sat nice in the wagon the whole time!


Jenny wanted me to take a picture of her paper for the blog. She enjoys Handwriting class, and is doing a good job!


Another future helper!


Last Saturday, David and I took a much needed day away, without any kids! We spent the day shopping in Augusta. I took him up on his offer of some new clothes since mine were getting so baggy. It was a fun day away, the shrimp at Red Lobster was yummy and we came back with less money, but feeling refreshed!
One of the things we did was go to the Flea Market, something we both enjoy! You never know what bargain you might find. This little car was one of them! Who could pass it up for $12?


Last Thursday my Mom's cousin invited the kids and I to come for the day. She had her daughters and daughter-in-laws, and grand-kids there too. It was a fun day and the kids had fun making new friends.
They live on a dairy farm. When Rissa saw all the cows on our way in the lane, she thought she was at Grandma's house! They were harvesting too, and Treyton thought that was very exciting. I have to be completely honest and say that it made sad to realize how far removed from that type of lifestyle my kids are.[I know what you are thinking Grandpa, if we had not moved your grand-kids so far away, they would be near a farm! (: ] I think a farm is one of the best places to raise a family, getting to work together, kids learn more responsibility, and Daddy instead of being 30 minutes away for at least 12 hours a day, is usually pretty close-by. But I guess we will have to be content adopting other peoples cows for now! (:




They had a fun tree swing that went really high
