Look at all we've canned so far. Still to come: Loads of tomato sauce, salso, we have also frozen lots of green beans and peppers cut in strips and onions. Yum!

Abby now rides training wheel free and so does Emily actually!

I've been working hard to get a perfect little area set-up downstairs for our home-school. After doing it at the kitchen table last year and having to get things set up and torn down I really wanted our own space this year. We have a barbie house with barbies for when Emily is done with pre-school and I also have barns and a bin of hard animals for a certain little man who is sure to make this year hard for me.
We will be spending lots and lots of hours here each day.

The new patio-- we didn't do this... my parents did. Isn't it awesome!
our ever growing wood-pile
I think we already have 80 hours put into gathering wood with lots more to go. It is so time-consuming.
I am now a liscensed life producer and plan to sell pre-need ins. for my dad's funeral home.
The 3 main reasons why life is soooo busy!
The sweet little baby who I also watch full-time. Did I mention how hectic life has been?!

Joel has started school. He is finishing his A.A.S degree at the moment with an emphasis in civil engineering. He is open to other options as he really doesn't know what he wants to do when he grows up but this gives him some direction.
Awana starts next week as does homeschool and the kids are pumped.
Joel took us to higher ground music fest in the cities a few weekends ago. We really enjoyed Jeremy Camp, Mathew West and Go Fish. It was lots of fun.
I'll try to update sooner next time!

Joel doesn't know what he wants to be when he "grows up" hehe. Do we ever REALLY know?
