Updates

I can’t believe I haven’t blogged since Halloween time! I need to have this outlet a lot more than its happening! HA!

Sometimes blogging just clears my head! I’m sad its taken this long to jot down updates…..

I think now that I can’t just quickly post from my phone….. (the app no longer works) I have to carve out a bit more time for me to be on the computer….

Few Updates in order to sorta play “catch up” ha!

Basketball started! Gregory is on Varsity and Brian is coaching JV.  Brian looks at it as an outreach/ministry.  He enjoys it too.  None of us care for tournaments! BLAH! And we always have a couple in December.  We have to be careful not to get too busy! BE INTENTIONAL to not allow that to happen! Adam is doing REC Basketball this year.  He practices some during the week and has an hour game on Saturdays.

We had a nice Thanksgiving.  Thankful for so many people and wonderful blessings.

Kraft and Sons is moving alone.  Not enough to support our family by itself alone but we are thankful for His provision.  Organic Ag is constantly struggling with ups and downs.

My Photography side business is always busy around the fall/before Christmas months.  Its a blessing to be able to help with some of Christmas expenses and our family vacations.

Brian and I have always very much enjoyed being “home bodies”.  We love being at home with our family.  Its a constant battle to keep our lives like this! Its so easy to let LIFE get too busy and we are always pulling back and learning to say NO to even good things!

 We went on an AWESOMELY fun family hike.  Didn’t hike real far but it was so beautiful and fun.

 Gideon and Titus did AMAZING… 5-6 miles I think.  Brian did a little carrying and Gregory had Annie Mae on his back the entire time.  She loved it and he did great!
Luke could have KEPT going! Mr. Survivor man!
