Maddy blessed


Kimberly's family came down to see Maddy blessed. It was so fun to get together. The sad thing is that was the last time we saw she and her family before they left us to move on to the big huge state of Texas :(

Drive in at Aunt Michelle's



So I watched Nettie's kids for her on the day that she moved. I thought of taking them to a drive-in movie for the evening but was exhausted so I set up the drive in movie in my living room. We went to the store:each one got to choose a box of their favorite fruit treat (no sticky, chocolatey mess:), and micro popcorn, some barbie movie...they had a blast.

Before the movie though they needed a bath. I didn't realize how tricky it would be to use a shower with kids that age....LOL...I won't forget it. I was basically in the shower with them..fully clothed...trying to hold them up. Note to self...have a tub if I have little kids. The best part was Albrecht slipping across the shower floor in his diaper while I was helping the other two. I wish I had a video for all of you.

Shenandoah and the rain


So last night I went camping in Shenandoah despite the forecast for rain. Maybe not the best night to go but it was fun :) The mist was so thick we could hardly see as we drove up the mountain. The tent leaked so when we woke up everything was drenching wet.

We had fun on the way home though because we got pictures of the changing leaves and stopped at a little art gallery and country store for hot cider. Great night after all.
