Methinks he has too much feminine influence in his world.

This wee lady is a BIGTIME Daddy's girl!  He MUST pick her up immediately when he gets home from work and  she randomly throws her arms around his neck and melts his heart. :)

 We've had little bit of freezing fog here

  and a little bit of winter saying hello...

...which of course gets me into the mood to sew flannel/fleece jammy pants for the kiddos.

They love 'em and so do I because they're so quick to make.

We've also had an unusual amount of rain...a big novelty for the kids to use umbrellas! :)

So there's a very random post for you.  :D
Ya'all have a very Happy Thanksgiving and stay well for me, please. :)

We are still here...

  In fact we are all alive and well...We've just been far removed from blog-land for awhile!

 Here's our current family photo...such as it is.  :)

 And here are the kiddos current photos

Plus some fun ones...

And HERE is our traditional fall leaf photos

 

 

This is a look of mischief if  I ever saw one!

She has NO IDEA...

 Miss Kate may not actually commit the crime but she will encourage the evil doer with giggles and laughs and possible suggestions.

The final outcome.

Aubrey's "I'm innocent" look...

...right before eating something she shouldn't!

The look she gives after doing something wrong ...presumably in hopes that  Mom will  go easy on the discipline side of the issue.

So there you have the US side of things.  As far as what we've been up to, ya know, the actually interesting part of the blogging business, well, I don't have any of that stuff for ya just now...and I don't foresee much time for updates in the near future.  However, I really shall try and throw up a few post here and there.  (Sorry, poor phraseology during flu season, I know.) :) 

The Wedding of B&R-part 3

Well, here's the farewell part...

They drove off  into the sunset on this cute little tractor. :)

 But first the bouquet  toss had to happen!

If you look closely you can see Dana's dramatic catch...

Which her brother helped her to get excited over! :D

Do you recognize her now that she's showing
 her sweet side again? :D

We had a potty break that inconveniently coincided with the releasing of the butterflies so the girls let theirs go on their own and I was able to get this cute video. :)

Time for bubble blowing and good-byes.

 And they're off!!!

 Kate watched them driving away...all the way around the field until they disappeared from view...and then some. :)

And she was still watching when they sent the vehicle after them to collect them because someone had played a little trick on them and snuck off with their getaway car.

 So the happy couple was dragged back to the waiting crowd and were made to jump thru some hoops before they were allowed to depart for real. :)

The kids kept their noses in the midst of the action right up until the cutting of the keys loose from their prison so the newlyweds could go their married way.:D 

The end
