Goodness Gracious

I'm playing catch up on stuff I wanted to post about in the last month and a half but never got to it.

We got dumped on with snow in the last two days and our trees were sagging low so Steve went to fix the situation. Problem is we need to buy him some boots. This is how Oakies who can't afford snow boots address the problem. He put trash bags around his legs and taped them. Why he's wearing just his undershorts with his coat I'm not so sure. Needless to say his legs were ice cold when he came inside.

Steve was teaching Olivia to play baseball, she took it very seriously and hit the ball several times, she loved it.

Playing in the leaves

She was running across the street to me and fell flat on her nose and then skid forward, thus her puppy dog scab. Poor baby girl.

This little girl is my singer, she sings all day long at the top of her lungs and sings a lot of songs that she makes up, I LOVE IT! She even fell asleep with her microphone.


Wearing their new OU garb Mamoose and Papaw sent them, so CUTE!

Making and eating pizza and caramel apples with Vicki, Paityn, and Jake. So much fun!

Went to the dinner with The Roses. We all went to church together when I was young and I grew up with their daughter. 20 years ago they moved to Washington and I've only seen them once since then more than 10 years ago. They were in town and we got to see them, so much fun to catch up.

Went to the Circus with The Keenans

Poor Bethany, Olivia would not let go of her and kept saying, "You're my best friend!"
Happy Birthday dinner for Uncle Mike

Got these outfits from grandma and love them!

Burying her sister in grass and tickling

The girls started Awanas and kept saying, "We love being an Awana Cubby!"

Steve and our neighbor Jose "our fix it guy" cutting down 10 of our dead poplar trees. So sad they are gone, they were so pretty but not when they were dead.

"Hi Mom! What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Found her like this one day.

Looks like a lot of effort went into those "boots". Steve does know he lives in Colorado and it snows...right? Get that boy some boots before the neighbors start closing their blinds. All in fun, tell Steve thanks for the laugh!

One more week! Hopefully...

I loved the pics of Steve in his homemade "boots"! Now if only he would have made an equal effort to get some PANTS! Ha ha! Oh well, just another reason to love him all the more for giving us a good laugh! Hope you all are well. We will be praying for the safe (and speedy)arrival of Baby Boy! Take care!
