Beautiful Fall Saturday!

Today was the nicest Saturday I have had in a while. We slept in late until 11ish, despite the kids in the other room about to tear down the walls with their morning ventures--at least that is how it sounded as we tried to sleep thru it all. We finally got up, gobbled a donut and hopped in the car to go to a Moving Sale I had heard about. The sale proved to be a huge blessing as I found some great deals on kids clothes and books, a homeschooling mom's dream! We headed home for some egg salad sandwiches and playing in the yard.


Kayla really likes to pretend She is MULAN (practicing for war)!!!! I love it!


The girls really played hard and their clothes showed it the end of the day, they were covered in dirt. I am always glad that they find ways to amuse themselves outside...even if it means they end up all grubby.

The baby, Cami, played in her jumper for the second time....I can tell she is getting tired of laying down so much but she didnt know what to think about that!!!
Ben worked on his car that he is restoring, of course, while I watched the kids out the window, played with the baby, and did some chores and reading. It was just a great day, I left the windows open and enjoyed the fall air... so pleasant!

Now as I write this we have just finished eating the yummy steaks Ben grilled while I was bathing the kids, and now they are having a tickle-fight/dogpile on the living room floor. They have no idea how LOUD they are. I mean, don't even attempt a phone conversation with THAT in the background. At least they are having fun!! After an ice cream treat for the family, it's bed time for the little hulagins and (hopefully) some winding down time for me...maybe I can catch and episode of CSI or read for a bit before I fall into bed....and crash. Then we can do it all over again....This is my life, it's a busy one, but I thank God for it !!!
