Cold and Snowy

Friday, November 21st, 2008

It was cold when I went for my walk this morning - only 9 degrees. Thankfully I was bundled up and stayed warm. When I got home the younger boys were busy clearing snow from the driveway and van. We sure are having a snowy November!

More Snow

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

We woke up this morning to a fresh coat of snow. It was a very pretty morning for walking. When I got home from my walk, Zachary and Josiah were outside enjoying the snow.

November Snow

Monday, November 17th, 2008

We woke up this morning to a fresh coat of snow. I enjoyed the beauty of it while I walked and the little guys were anxious to get outside and enjoy it.

Operation Christmas Child

Sunday, November 16th, 2008

After church this morning, the kids and teens stayed for lunch and then we packed shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child. We have fun packing boxes each year for this neat ministry.

I forgot to get a picture of the whole crew that helped but got one of my kids before we left.

Snowy Morning

Monday, November 10th, 2008

I enjoyed walking while the snow was falling this morning. When I got back home, Zachary was outside having some fun in the snow. He even had his snowboard out but it’s a bit early yet for that.

Snow!

Zachary and Josiah are happy to see the snow falling today.

Hartwick Pines

Friday, November 7th, 2008

We went to Hartwick Pines this afternoon to take advantage of the nice weather. It won’t be long until the cold and snow are here to stay.

Tying Shoes

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

The kids and I went to Hartwick Pines this afternoon and it seemed like Josiah was spending a lot of time tying his shoes. Kristi came to his rescue and tied them so they wouldn’t keep coming undone.

Another Beautiful November Day

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

We’ve been enjoying some great weather here the last few days. The high today is supposed to be 70 degrees. Kristi joined me for my walk this morning. It was a pretty morning.

Hike

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

Yesterday was such a nice day that the kids and I decided to go for a hike on the trails at Marl Lake. It was in the 60’s and sunny - a perfect day for hiking since it wasn’t too hot or too cold.
