Our Newest Addition





Snickers is her name. Baby is our game. We decided that we were in our new home for 2 years now, that we needed to add another member to our family. It has been a long time since I have taken time with training a new puppy and trying to keep things going around the house at the same time, BUT, it has been a VERY LONG TIME since I have had to baby proof a home. Snickers can find things from all over the place. She is kept in the Den and in our master bedroom most of the time. She does not get to roam the entire house yet, but that is because there is another BIG puppy in the other main part of the house. Josie belongs to Adam and Amy, Mark's son and daughter in law. Snickers is 14 weeks old and is doing pretty well on potty training and she is FULL OF ENERGY!! She keeps Mark and I young at heart, needless to say.

Fall Harvest





OK, I have to admit it is so totally different being able to get vegetables out of your garden at the end of November, but we did. We planted beans and peas towards the end of September and we have already gotten 2 pickings off these plants. These are green beans of a different type of variety that we planted in the garden the first time around. Yellow beans was another type of bean that we planted in this fall crop and I also preserved them by freezing. Pictures are of the beans. Mark loves to play in the dirt, so this is our reward for his wanting to play. Got to love that about you my dear husband. Thanks for wanting to take care of us this was as well.
