Fall...

Baseball '09...it's been running our lives but the boys love it, so we do too!!
Such a great project..."The Human Body". No, I did not create this, the organs came from a packet and the boys colored them and cut them out!! Unfortunately, the only color butcher paper we could get for free from the supply store was purple!! oh well...

Took Shelbi to Princesses on Ice with Grammie Care. Poor Grammi Lynn was bummed to miss, but she was much happier getting to be with our newest princess, baby Arianna Lynn Johnson...


My favorite girl...

One of my favorite annual fieldtrips!! Picking apples at the farm in the mountains!!



My three amigos...




So this is what we've been up to this beautiful fall-that-I-thought-would-never-get-here!! Some fun trips (no pics of the fair...forgot my camera :), projects, and of course, baseball. I even got to go on a women's retreat last weekend at Hume lake...3 whole days and 2 nights with just the girls!! Seven meals of uninterrupted feasting... dessert and all! talk about spoiled. But of course, I was ready to get back to my wonderful family by the end of it. And they were all alive and well when I got home!! Even the house was in good shape! Am feeling so blessed to be living this life of mine...at home teaching my kids, having an incredibly supportive husband that thinks I am amazing, and enough time to write a few blurbs here and read my much loved novels...yes, truly and deeply blessed...

Alicia, we got a packet copied from our resource teacher :( I bet if you googled it you could find something similar...it was pretty basic but a lot of fun!
