Thanksgiving Kinder Style

This year Cason and Cael's class had a Thanksgiving party, fest and a play. They have been talking about it for days. They looked like they had fun.
I was able to go in on Friday and help make the hats they wore today. It was to funny because most of the kids thought they were pirate hats when they were done. LOL Cason and Cael

Cason was a pilgrim coming across on the ship.

Cael was a tree trunk. LOL

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

Thank you

Wow the final count was 36 blankets. Woo Hoo. Thank you everyone that donated fleece. Thank you girls and leaders for tying the blankets. The young women were hoping to donate 25 blankets to the foster care program and we went well beyond that with help from others.

A Weekend to Remember

Brent took me up north this past weekend. We decided we needed to get away to celebrate that we have been together for 15 years. He decided to take me to Port Angeles, Forks and La Push.
Such a pretty part of Washington. Really long drive but worth it. Thought I would share some of the pictures.
Brent found someone that had something in common with him. This poor woman was missing more than just one arm. They were all over in Port Angeles.
Here is were Bella and Edward had thier first date.
So the lady that owns this store also has one in Forks. She moved to Forks just because of twilight. Got to love it. HAHAHA

Brent and I just heading into Forks. :D

WooHoo!!!

Can you say Dr. Cullen?


I would hate to live in this house. But it did look close to her house.


Bells's red truck.

La Push baby!!!! So cold. It was raining. Just jumped out took the picture and left.




Anyways it was good to get away together. We truely needed it. Thank you Jennie, Drew, Lili and Jeff for taking the kids.
To top our wonderful weekend off on our way we were in a two car accident. Our fault. We lost control of the tahoe entering I90 from I5 . Hit the wall, went across four lanes sideways before hitting the wall on the other side of the freeway. Then hit by a little car. The lady was so nice. We are counting our blessings. It could of been so much worse. We all walked away with no injuries. Not sure how the tahoe faired. We will find out on Wednesday. We had the hitch on so there might be some frame damage. The back drivers side tire and rim need to be replaced. There are a couple of dents. Very long trip home. Took us almost 11 hours. Anyways very thankful for our many blessings.
Thank you Drew and Bryce for coming to get us. Thank you Jennie and Jodie for letting them. And thank you to our friends that jumped into action with one phone call.
What a weekend to remember.

Brent's New Love

Brent hasn't been this clean for the whole 16 years I have known him! Ok maybe that isnt true. He is a pretty clean guy. I dont want you to get the wrong idea. LOL
As some might know we really dont have very good water pressure up here on the hill.
Well it was time for a new shower head. Watching QVC I found a shower head that takes oxygen and some how infuses it with the water. Oh my! One setting has so much pressure it is almost to hard to face it (for me). But yet we are suppost to be able to save water with this shower head. Our only complant so far is we dont want to get out of the shower.
Brent is to funny about it. We have only been using it since friday. He loved his shower that morning so much, he got up extra early Saturday morning(5am) so that he could take a long shower. Then last night he had a hard time not taking a second shower for the day. Now he is talking about getting one for the kids bathroom. Anyways when you find something this grand you just have to share.
