Relaxing Sunday

I had planned on painting in the Play Room today but it didn't happen.  I am not so sure there is a conspiracy among my family to keep me off of ladders!!

Kara and Forrest (Tom was sick) came over as did David and Grace (Sarah was working).  We ended up just visiting and playing with the children.  It is so amazing to me to watch Forrest and Grace - somehow they just know they are cousins.  Kara and I put them in the bathtub as Forrest decided to wear much of his lunch!!

The children were having so much fun - not sure I have heard that many giggles in a long time.  Though they both seemed to think Quack Quack (the duck) belonged to them!!

Of course Brian decided to teach Forrest the fine art of eating cookies!!

We went over to Dillon's to grab something to eat - they have a shark tank inside and flamingos outside.  Both Forrest and Grace loved it - think there will be a trip to the zoo in our near future...

It is so good to have family around - being grandparents is such a blessing.  God is amazing!!

Turkey Hunting

Time just flies.   With a fractured elbow, well, that makes it just a tad more complicated.

On September 28 I (Vicki) missed the last step of the ladder while painting the Play Room.  Ended up with a fractured elbow (two places) and ligament damage.  So now I am in a horrible brace.

We did go turkey hunting.  David shot one, but it ran away....  next time.

It was much colder this year than in past years - but it was still an awful lot of fun!!

There is a part of me that thinks David just wants to get out there and chop wood - though we did use every pit of this pile!!

The hunters, while looking sad, did have a lot of fun.  Of course they found new places to go!!

And being in God's creation is always peaceful.  Can't wait until next time when I have the use of my left arm!!

God is so good!!
