Fall Fun!

Our family has participated in Operation Christmas Child for years with many different organizations. This year we put boxes together at our church LOGOS program. Morgan and Kailey also went to Mt.Zion Baptist and packed boxes last weekend. It really helps them think about others.

Kailey and the box she helped pack.

Here's Kaileys animal skin stretch. It's part of our "Little House" study.

Nathan was a pro! They all enjoyed the project and learned something in the process.

This picture was taken before we (me and all 5 children) all set out on a November hiking afternoon at Mingo State Park on Monday. Before....we ran short on water, before we took the wrong turn, before we had to leave the trail and head toward the creek or it would get dark, before we had to hitch a ride with a stranger, hence the smile! Elianna, never cried! For the most part the weather was great and we had a great memory making time. No one really fussed until we were almost back to the van. WARNING! Anyone planning to hike at Mingo... don't trust the map!

Fall leaves are great!
