What's been happening??

Finished Product




















At the Tree Farm















Rockclimbing














I decided to keep the blog aren't you all excited?!?!... (insert sounds of crickets chirping). --as if I have an audience ha ha! :)

I've just really had trouble finding things to write about. Lately my life has been sort of boring and consumed in homeschooling that there's not much to write about.

Since I changed my layout my links have disappeared. Hopefully I'll get those back soon. I say that because I had on my "links" section, links of kids who are batteling cancer. And last January we met one of those kids, little Rebekah, and today we got to see her again. We went out to her Grandpa's Christmas Tree farm today and got a Christmas tree. It was fun and good to see them. My little girl and both Rebekah and Sara all had on lady bug boots. Rebecca grabbed my little girls hand and led her out to the trees. It was quite cute. I got a pic that I'll post. They also took a pic that is posted on their blog. The farm is in a beautiful spot in Hillsboro and so it made for a nice drive. So now our tree is all decorated as you can see.

So a little background to this though. Thursday I told my kids all day that when daddy came home we were going to get a tree. Well when daddy got home he said that we have a fake one in the garage and we'll just use that. So we went to run some errands and got home late. My husband went to check in the garage and no tree. We are not sure what happened to the tree but thinking we may have gotten rid of it when we thought we were moving to Cali. So it was late and he said he'd buy one after work Friday. Well about midnight I was reading Rebekah's blog and her family invited people to come out and visit and get a tree at the same time with that money being given to Rebekah's trust fund. So I presented the idea to my husband and off we went this morning to get a tree.

So in other news since not much happens around our home so I posted a pic of my son who got to take a rockclimbing class in November. That was neat and a little something out of the ordinary. He got to somewhat conquer some fears...but he liked it and we're hoping to do more of it in the future.
Have a good weekend.
