A walk in the woods......

I LOVE taking photos of nature, it is a LOT easier than taking pictures of my siblings. Nature poses itself for you, and my siblings they......well, that's another story:) I will now share with you the photos that I took on my walk........

Cedar Tree


Berries 











HOW "MY WALK" CAME TO AN END:
(Dramatized by me)
I was taking a picture, my finger just coming off of the shutter button, the wind picked up, the leaves on the trees moved, BOOM!!!! a tree (actually a very large branch, but I couldn't tell!) fell. The next thing I knew, I was in our small, warm, cozy little cottage (house) still shaking from the shock.
THE END 

Guess Who?

"Fall"ing for Autumn

Grace Elizabeth was born last Sunday morning, we are all so thankful she is here, and healthy. 


Considering how busy life was at the beginning of this week, it has pretty much gone back to "normal"..........actually, when you live with 9 other people I don't think there is a "normal."
Surprisingly we all took on another week of school (that must mean mom is feeling REALLY good) this week, everything seems normal except for a tiny little creature.......or should I call her my sister?:) God has really blessed us with food and gifts from friends, I think we are getting spoiled.......or is the right word Lazy?? 

Tennessee........it is soooo beautiful this time of year, I captured a few photos.....
These photo are a couple weeks old:)





These are today's photos.


I felt like this tree was brighter than the first one.


I can't figure out if I like the picture above or below best......hmmm.......I think my favorite is Above!


The road we live on, (its a breeze compared to 24:) quite and peaceful.


Thanks Y'all for stopping by!!

The/our/HIS Weekend (and week:)

     We all just came out of  a very busy weekend, and yes, thankfully we ALL survived! Before I give you a recap of our weekend, I will show you life before the weekend.




Several of us are very busy with school!


DS3 usually gets done with his school pretty quickly, so these two trouble makers.....usually find trouble:)


In my spare time I like to practice some photography, since it is Fall I captured some wild flowers around our property.


                                      

I like to do a few photos of some of our animals too.




The cats cooperate (and stay still) way better than the dog!


We saw that DS3 fell asleep on the porch......


he had some company with him too!


So the explanation for this picture: This is what happens when you put your arms and feet in your shirt at the same time, it ends up to be a dress. (He could probably wear it for three more years:)

This is the reaction when I told him it was going on the blog.


We finally filled our big hole, behind our house in, and now the kids are trying to dig another one!!!



I was taking pics and DS4 said, "take a picture of my baby" so ya, that explains this toddler animal cruelty picture.


I made a jean head band, and guess who was the only one who could fit it!

THE CRAZY WEEKEND
(We had a bus from Peoria IL come to Nashville)
And it all started like this........


Grocery's, the number one thing.


Friday morning I started baking all the desserts for the weekend,


in the middle of making the 3 9x13 pans of pumpkin delight.




The finished Pumpkin Delight!


I also made 2 Jelly roll pans of Apple cake.


DD1 made cinnamon rolls for breakfast on Sunday, at the end of Friday we were all exhausted, but that was just the start.


-SATURDAY-

We cleaned and got ready.....


DD1 wrapping up mums, for the table decor.




We wrapped up ten, our counter was filled.


I am soooo glad that we got them they were absolutely beautiful!

We don't have many pictures of the company, only a few......


We kept a couple friends:)


Inside the bus.


Outside waiting for the departure.....


still waiting.....(and talking) well our bus/van left before theirs did:)
But all in all the weekend was a blessed one.


They wanted to ride underneath the bus sooo bad, I wonder who put that idea into their heads?? Hmmm



We were all for sure mom would have the baby Saturday night, but as you can see....nope!

Till next time..........
