September

September was full of finishing up summer.  But I couldn't convince myself to be done with summer this year.  The flowers were especially beautiful and the days were lovely! 

Already I'm mourning the loss of beautiful bouquets on my dining table. 

Sunday afternoon ride.  

My three cowboys. 

Show off. 

This is her spot.  She knows this one is hers! 

We were lounging on the hammocks and these guys came to see us...

Ah baby.....

Forty year old me with my goofus. 




We spent the weekend away in North Platte, Nebraska.  On the way there we visited the Kearney Archway Museum.  

Green grass and big Nebraska sky....

Bumper boats in North platte after Go carting. 


At the little Fort Cody rest stop. 






Labor Day was spent with the Burkey clan at the Rock Creek Station Museum.  A good fun day. 





Fall harvest. 

Not sure what this picture is but its what gives me life. 

One way to do flash cards....

Took the kids with a best friend each to Omaha Zoo. 

















Rebekah S. Blessed me with a year subscription to DOP!  I'm enjoying this first one like a piece of chocolate.  

We have a game where I give her kisses to keep in her hand.  This night I came back and she still had them held in her hands!  Ahhh Baby!  


One day when school got too much and attitudes got to much .....we finally just went to the hammock and gave everything time. 


Finally we got over the tears and got it done! 

Take a picture of me like this mom.   So I did. 


Tee hee!  Bet he didn't know I was gonna use this here!  

Lunch from Main street market.  High class deli food!  :) 

These three drove off to a youth camp out.  Bout thought it was all wrong that I have a kid big enough to run off and leave me for that long!  They had Soooo much fun!

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
