Charlotte's Web

Randi and I took Tabbi and Becca to see the play "Charlotte's Web". Tabbi was totally enthralled by it all. Becca did good for a while, but she started to get antsy toward the end. Tabbi's friend, Ambrosia, was there,too. The two girls sat on the edges of their seats the whole time. They really enjoyed it. Tabbi wants to go to more plays, so looks like we will be buying more tickets in the future.

TIMBER!

Bernie and his brother Steve cut down the big tree by our garage. Nathanael counted over 100 rings. We should have enough firewood to last a few days now!

Bernie is 50!

Bernie turned 50 on Sunday! We had a party for him Saturday night at the Depot. Had a great turn out and everyone had a good time. Becca and Tabbi helped him open his gifts.

Playing some music! Nathanael is singing.

Time to blow out the candles!

Mice!

We have started a book club in our homeschool group for some of the older kids, including Nathanael. This month we read the book "Redwall" by Brian Jacques. (It's about mice.)Tomorrow we are having our meeting about this book and Nathanael made a snack to go with it. Aren't they cute? And chocolate! YUM!

Here's Nathanael with his trayful of mice.

Weathershield is closing for three weeks!

Last week we found out that Bernie will be getting layed off from his job for three weeks! The week of Thanksgiving he will be off, and the two weeks of Christmas and New Years. Guess we'll have to watch our spending for a while. Who knows what will happen next year, too.
