Our House

Here's a picture of our house we love it! This isn't a very good picture but it is the only one I had. We have really been enjoying taking care of the beautiful yard and all the plants. We also love all the space inside. We have had several family gatherings already and we had plenty of room!

Still No Internet

We have been so busy lately with school and birthday parties I haven't had time to call about internet service. I really need to I am so behind on everyone and miss my online blogging friends.

Jacksen and Jennah started school on the 16 they both did well. I was more worried about Jacksen than Jennah just because he is the quite one. It turns out he did much better than Jennah. He made three friends the first day and is so excited every morning about going. Jennah on the other hand does not like school she says all the teacher every does is yell at the kids all day. Jennah's teacher is fresh out of college with 25 kindergartners so I can see why she may have to resort to yelling some!

Joel's birthday party was Friday night we had a house full of kids and adults. I think everyone had a good time. Then Saturday we had two more family parties to go to!

I am hoping things will slow down now that school has started. I have found it very exhausting getting two kids ready for school, (one being Jennah and that curly hair I don't know what to do with) getting two lunches together, and two snacks together daily. In the meantime trying to get Joel to the toilet without an accident. I have started some organizational projects that I think are really going to help with all this.

We visited Ft. Gibson last Wednesday night. We didn't realize until then how much we are missing all our friends and also our Church. We have been out of town for vacation and visiting family and really haven't had time to make new friends at our new Church. I am really missing having friends and staying busy during the day, but I am able to get a lot done at home with just Joel.

I have just discovered the Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market. I don't know why I haven't tried it sooner. It was so nice and quite. I was able to purchase a weeks worth of groceries and toiletry items and get back in my car in 40 minutes (with all three kids). I have waited that long just in line at the Super Wal-Mart. So happy with my newest discovery!
