Fun Stuff

 Leah got a gel nail kit for her birthday. We had fun with it! When I went to get a picture, mayzie did this pose...lol. We had a good laugh about it!

 My little helpers :)

 Justus cut out his own hand and glued eyes on it. we all thought it was so dang cute!

 Gracie decided one day to paint her leg and Isabelle's arm like a robot.

 The first snow.. we got about inches!

Fun Surprise!

 I had the opportunity to go home and only a couple of my sisters knew I was coming. It was one of the funnest surprised I have ever done! Rachel drove down with me. We had a really good trip and I am so glad we were able to go!! We only took our youngest ones. Justus and William came with me and the rest of the kids were so sad! We are planning a trip back down for Arden's farewell in a few weeks and we are all soooo excited!!

 We have missed our family down here!!

 The kids did really good on the trip! We stopped at Cabella's and let the kids see all the animals.

It was hard to not be able to see my dad! He had a court hearing while we were there and i was able to go and see him from across the room. He couldn't see all of who was there, because he can't look at us for very long or he gets into trouble. I was able to talk to him on the phone. I love to hear his voice, but it breaks my heart to not be able to hug him! I can't wait for him to get home!  We loved our trip and can't wait to go back!

Gum Contest

 Jarom and the girls decided to see how many gum balls they can fit in their mouth.....eeewww!

Helpers

 These two are my little helpers. They love to be in the kitchen with me. Justus is happy if we make things all day!
It would be easier and a lot faster if I could do it myself, but I love to watch how excited they are to help and so here we go :)

School Shopping.

 I took my older two girls, Daniel and the 2 little girls school shopping at different times. I took Justus to the store by himself too. I didn't get a picture with Daniel :( It was fun and I enjoyed spending time with all of them!

Bottling and Other Stuff

 We got some awesome cucumbers from the hutterites! They made some really good pickles! It was my first time bottling pickles.

 We got lots of raspberries from our neighbors bushes. She couldn't use them all, so we picked them and made jam. William loves it as well as everyone else!

 William loves to be outside and he loves to kitty!

 We had fun at Gracie's first game .

First Day of School 2016

 The kids were all really excited to start school this year! Gracie is doing cheer leading and has some fun classes. She knows so many more kids this year and is loving it!

 Leah is on the student council and got to go to Calgary and attend a big motivational concert. She had so much fun!

 Daniel is back in Archery. He really enjoys it!

 Isabelle and Mayzie are in dance and they both love it!

 They had some fun dress up days at school... Nerd day was a favorite one :)

 I sure love my cute little nerds!!!

 This was wacky Wednesday.. Isabelle wasn't feeling good that day.
