Here is some of the going on's in our family:

~we spent three days down with Lee's family last to celebrate Christmas with them. All had a great time!

~all four of our boys birthdays are in January, so we start celebrating various things in November and don't stop until the end of January, whew I'm wiped out!

~we are dreaming of our garden we will plant this winter, going over seed catalogs making lists of what we would like to plant

~the boys have been collecting scraps of wood to make frames for our garden. we will be doing square foot gardening this year as we will be able to do it anywhere we end up

~on days when the temperatur is near freezing or below Lee is unable to work. we love having him home but he doesn't get paid. we have had a few too many of these days.

~the Lord blessed the children with a few days of snow! this is unusal for our area and of course it started snowing right after I explained to our children that the snow level was going to be higher than our elevation level and we would not be getting snow. I sure felt like a fool!!!

~Austin has been going to work with Lee when he works with my Dad, and a couple of times when Lee wasn't there. he enjoys this and he has a wonderful work ethic!

~our one and only outing for the week is one morning a week we go to our good friends house and do science. our children LOVE this, and it quite the highlight of the week.

~we are taking field trips to various farms. Austin has a strong desire to become a farmer and we would like to expose him to the various types of farming. Lee and I love animals so this is great fun for both of us and brings back memories of our childhood years and keeps our dreams alive to get back to the country!

~we continue to pray about a family business

~we are still praying and waiting for the Lord to show us His path for the next leg of our adventure
