Most of the family was off for the weekend so we decided to have a 3 day celebration. My sister and niece are staying 3 nights and we plan to stay up late, play games and just enjoy each others company… ya know, all the good stuff of life.
Our family came to visit for Thanksgiving. We had great time hanging out, catching up and having good ole fun.
It was a busy day! Started out with chores, then we got a new to us dishwasher delivered, and ended the day watching the lighting of the Christmas lights at the park.
It’s the time of the year when the work outside dies down but there’s still plenty of work to be done in the house to get it in shape for the upcoming holidays. We made a day of it cleaning house and shampooing carpets. Of course all work and no play makes for a dull, boring day so we made time for a walk with the goat.
We’re celebrating 5 years of being here! The weather was so nice that we spent most of the day outside. The kids were installing speakers in Brooke’s car, Michael and I were changing up the fence by the barn, and Miley was trying to get her airplane to fly. We ended our day with a bowl of chili, Halloween cupcakes and fun conversation.
Every summer, around the 4th of July, my brother and his family come down for a visit. My sisters, who live around here, also come out and we spend several days hanging out and catching up. This year, just like every year, was jam packed with all sorts of fun! The first day we celebrated Miley’s 8th birthday…
