It's Been A Week...

      Okay, it's been a week since I posted last...
     We had friends over yesterday. One of my pen pals came, (with her family of course) and spent the night. I had so much fun with them. I have pictures, but don't feel like trying to upload and edit them right now! I might do it sometime tomorrow. It was so fun seeing them again. They were such a joy to spend time with.
     We are still counting down the days until Thanksgiving comes, (bringing visitors with it). It is now  a week from yesterday, or six days. Five weeks from yesterday until Christmas. Or, fifty-nine days; however you want to say it.
   
             Well, I am now signing off until Thanksgiving, or until it snows! Au Revoir...

Lately...

     You know that your brother is interesting when he tells you that he wants to spend his birthday in a hospital room, or sings love songs in opera to himself!
     You know that you're in for  treat when your brother starts singing. I love listening to Jacob sing. His most recent favorite song is the theme song for the PBS kids show "Super Why."
     We had our first flurry today and everyone sort of got caught up in the excitement. Okay almost everyone (Anna and Sarah weren't too interested).
     Thanksgiving is coming up and everyone is excited, (we are expecting friends to come  over). The younger ones are counting down to Christmas by the week.
     Jacob informed me the other day that Christmas was the most special day of the year, because Jesus was born a bunch of years ago. The way he told me was funny, he had no idea that I already knew!
     We've been busy, I'll post more over the holidays. :)
