Happy October 12th!

Well here I am after an obvious hiatus! Time flies when you are having fun. Sorry for the lack of info concerning my family in beautiful Lakeview....I have been busy! We have been trying to get the house ready for winter, this meant a wood stove and a whole lot of wood! Yes, we have a new wood stove!
Mom and Dad in law came to town and worked their little hearts out helping us get ready. The kiddos even put in their fair share. I love getting ready for winter. I love the hard work of cutting and stacking wood! I love to sit in front of a blazing fire with a cup of hot chocolate and know that I helped make the warmth possible. This is my favorite time of year! We also put together our garage...big job! Filled a hole that went from the garage to the basement and tried to get life organized...it will be a work in progress for a while longer!
The kiddos are doing great, arguing quite a lot lately, but all siblings rival...right? It does weigh on my nerves, but I rivaled too, sorry mom! However, they do love each other and I find joy watching them play and make believe together. The twins especially have me grinning at times. Aleyna is obviously the BOSS but Timothy follows, they crack me up with their games and how they talk to one another. Kaitlyn learns a lot from them and she has the silliest personality ever, hmmm she has three of the craziest siblings to learn from! I hope and pray that I will learn each day to love my children more and more! Some days I have a slight twitch, but they are worth it!
I do have pictures, proof if you will of all of the happenings, however, my camera and David's computer are not cooperating. Sorry :( my computer on the other hand is on the fritz, so patience my friends, patience!

In other news.....I have a Kidney Stone! GRRRRRRRR and OUCH!
