Trying to Finish Well!

So today is my sister Neva's 9th anniversary. For those going so what, it was at there wedding that Shane & I decided that the other wasn't as bad as we first thought. Of course 3 years had gone by and we had both aged a bit. It's amazing how God works and today we have two wonderful, (if not crazy at moments) kids and a third due in 8 weeks. Here are some cute pictures of Shane and the kids after not seeing him for a while. Most of November he worked till 730 p.m. and didn't get home till the kids were asleep. Pillow fight with Dad, Daniel getting his swing in. Dad trying to defend himself from the pillow attack. Dog pile on Dad!! Shane's commute with the snow wasn't any longer than normal. Not to many people up here braved the snow and ice. Love, SKKD

Well we got our first snow of the season. It usually snows only once down on the flats but it's been snowing since yesterday around 3 p.m., it is actually sticking. I'd say we have about 6 inches or more. We are enjoying the snow. Kelli & Ivan when the snow started yesterday. Daniel first thing this morning. Hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving Love, SKKD

Here are some more pictures of our project. Good word for what Kelli calls "Daddy made a mess", and my response "Yeah but he's cleaning it up huh." Another fun thing from Thursday & Friday Kelli with her overabundance of charm became friends with Shane's cousin Ty who was visiting. She claimed his lap most of Thursday night when they were watching movies. More pictures to follow. Love us all.

They all like to play in the dirt with Tractors and shovels. Here are some more pictures of this weekends activities. God has kept them safe thus far, and I praise Him for that. We are having the stump in the middle of the driveway ground this afternoon. So pictures maybe tomorrow. Love, SKKD

Today was the big day we got the trees taken down. The one in the middle and the one off to the side in the neighbors yard. We got everything moved last night and Shane finished up moving fences when the Tree Guys arrived at 7:45. They were done about 1130 with time to eat a Steak and Mashed Potato's Dinner. View of Neighbors Yard View of the drive way along with the Tractor Shane rented! Thank the good Lord everything went smoothly and safely thus far. Even the neighbor agreed they did a good job and my even use them to cut more tree down. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with whom ever you share it with. Love, Shane, Kristi, Kelli, Daniel

It seems true with any Kid I'm sure. Daniel turned 18 months Yesterday, had his checkup today. Weighed 28lbs & 34inches long! I can't remember what sister weighed, she weighed herself during my appointment which also went well. Considering all of us had the eight hour variety flu last week. Shane has been trying to catch up with the day he missed last week. So he's worked late pretty much everyday this week. On the Go! Taking a pause with Dad! Finally crashed on Mom! May God bless the rest of your week. Love, SKKD Lambing

For Shane's Birthday I bought Kelli some Finger Paints to make him a Birthday Card. I helped arrange the letters but she did the rest. Brother added a stamp and finger. Thank you to all those who called on and around his Birthday. It added to his special day. I made his Cherry Peach Pie, and had a nice evening with the kids. The Art Work! The Proud Artist! Hope you are all doing wonderfully, God Bless, Love The Lambings

Some pictures taken this previous weekend. Big News for this week Shane's 34th Birthday is Tomorrow!! Plans & Pictures will be coming. The kids & I have all sorts of Surprises! Mainly to drive dad crazy, and Dad is already scheming revenge on Mom for our anniversary & Christmas. Oh and Misty, they can't clean the toilet yet but Kelli can clean up her own messes,(with Mom & Dads guidance) and if Daniel thinks Mom is too slow changing diaper he will take it off. And sister will throw it away;-) Boy am I ever cute! Lazy Friday night! Hope all is going well, God Bless, Love, SKKD
