Marli's 6th Gotcha day with us!  What a blessing God gave us, she brings endless energy to our house and smiles to our faces daily.

What a crazy day!

Some days you just want to pull the covers back over your head!  I committed to work at the PSAT test this morning but made arrangement to go with my friend Sue to her Bible Study.  So my dear sweet husband said he would go for me, was to be at the school at 7:00........Dave is still in the shower!  I am trying to be patient since he is doing me a favor.  He did manage to get out the door by 7:10.  Ben is trying to finish up his math homework and the rest are getting ready for school.  I leave to start my car and the battery is dead!  Thank God for wonderful friends who helped jump start the car, but let me tell you foreign cars are tricky!

Sam Freshman football


Sam's first year back playing since he was 11!  He has had a fun season, loves the games not so crazy about practice.  He plays offensive lineman.  They have a winning season so far, record is 7-0

Our New Puppy! Ruben James

As most of you know our dear sweet Brewer had a short wonderful life and we so miss his corky personality.  Ruben is a delight but he has big shoes to fill.  I think we finally are potty trained.  Just in time for winter.  Ruben is named after Dave's sweet Grandfather, now the kids talk of getting a female and naming her Ruth (Dave's Grandmother's) We have to think long and hard about that one!
