Snow!!

well it has been a while since I have been able to blog. my computer was getting worked on again! hopefully it's going to stay working well. so on Sunday night we got a couple inches of snow!! it was so fun to see and play in. we made two Snow men and enjoyed the cold for once! Clay was to young to enjoy it last years, so we had a good time with it on Monday showing him all the fum things boys can do. Colton actually was able to build his own snow man his height. he was pretty excited about it. all the snow is basically gone except in the shady area's that never seen the sun and our snow men! we have been getting ready for thanksgiving today by baking my first batch of crescent rolls. they turned out so good! I was a little worried about my baking skills, usually it takes me one mess up and then I figure it out. not this time, it was a success baby! so now i will make some cookies and pumpkin bread. maybe some jello salad? yum. so i am heading to my sisters tommorrow and then David's family on friday. should be able to get a little early shopping accomplished on friday. gotta get those good deals for the family! wells here's to a great Thanksgiving to come and hopefully no sickness to follow! later-

sicky!

well we have not had to much fun to write about this week. we have been down with the cold cough stuff. it's takin awhile to get over it. we did got to Mining Park today and play after lunch out with dad. it turned out to be such a nice day to be outside. We have been blessed with some really nice fall weather! I love the fall when it's not raining. so many fun things to do outside. leaves, salmon in the river to watch, hunting season, still good for bike rides!
Colton has got the chance to go out into the neighborhood and help some of the older couples rake leaves and do some yard work. they love to see the little boys come help and we get the chance to get to know them and share our lives with them. I would say they are not Believers, so I hope these opportunities will prove to be a time to share Christ's love we have with them! Colton is very bold in telling people about the Jesus he believes in and has saved him from HELL. I know older people may not take him seriously but the boy know's his basic's and I hope helps them to think about their future. Kids are so truthful and just don't have the fear that sometimes us parents feel when sharing our faith. rejection is not something he gets from people. they actually have questions and listen to him a bit. it's fun for me to see our life with Christ come out through Colton. I hope this finds you all well and full of the Life God has for you!

Colton's cousin Rhett turned five and got a bow and arrow for his birthday. Colton talked about it for days, so he took his piggy bank in and bought himself a bow and arrow to shoot. he picked it up quick. it has a rubber tip so he can shoot it in the house without hurting any of us. he has been setting up his toy bucks and shooting them down. it's a great past time for a rainy day! we stopped by the Sportsmans warehouse on Sunday and he got to shoot a real bow. the guy that worked there was impressed a four year old could pull back every bow he gave him! he even hit the target in a "kill" area! well this could start a new type of hunting in our family. I can tell it's giving him better hand eye coordination. well that's what we do for fun in the woods!
