Fall Break in Branson

We have taken the boys to Branson for the past 2 years.  Who knows, it might become a tradition in the fall.  Our Mimi got to go with us.  We enjoyed having her with us. We had a great time.  We stayed at Big Cedar.  There is so much there to do with the kiddos...paddle boats, trails, minature golf, lincoln logs, etc.  We did make it to Silver Dollar City.  The boys favorite thing to do there was the cave.  My oldest kept saying "This is awesome!".  It was great to get away.  Thank You God for allowing us to make some memories!!

Pressing On

I have suffered with psoriasis (rash on my skin) for about fifteen years.  Right now God has led me to look at nutrition.  I am doing the Maker's Diet which really just involves eating unprocessed foods and exercising!!  I know God can heal me but I am not sure that He will. He may have other plans for my suffering.  When I get discouraged I have to remind myself of some of these truths:  God, You are for me, You are with me, You are on my side, You are my Help, Nothing is too hard for You, My future is in your hands, My healing is in your hands, You are not perplexed by what I am going through, You hold me securely, You are worthy of my trust, You are more than enough for me. 

Pumpkin Contest

My little guy has a pumpkin decorating contest in his class.  Sooo we decided to paint his like Batman.  He really likes Batman stuff, in fact he plans to be Batman for Halloween.  We really had a lot of fun designing and creating this.  

Pumpkin Patch Time

Recently, I took the boys to the pumpkin patch in Claremore.  They had fun making a scarecrow and playing the little games.  A sweet friend told me about this patch.  It was a lot of fun.  

More Fall Pics

Tonight we had to take our family pictures for the church directory.  So I did a little photo taking myself before the big group pic.  Here are my 2 youngest boys.

Will's Field Trip

Will's class went to the fair today. I really enjoyed my time with him today.  One of my close friends, Shannon, watched Sammy for me so that was a huge help.  It was fun to focus on Will.  

Pumpkin Patch Time

I love the fall.  We love to check out various pumpkin patches.  Today Max and I met some friends at a pumpkin patch in town.  He had fun climbing on the pumpkins.
