Here's some pics of hard working K Kids:

And one funny family story:

Fionn is on safety patrol this week.

He asked after school if he should be stopping every car

or just stop cars when kids are in the crosswalk.

I replied "Probably just when kids are in the crosswalk"

He said "Ooooh, yeah, that way makes way more sense!"

Soooo he was stopping all cars!

Sorry if you were one of them tonight after school!

Here come the Holidays!

What a lovely Thanksgiving break!

2 Turkeys

1 Ham

8 sides

4 pies

2 dozen buns

19 overly full people!

We have soooo much to be thankful for!

Spent a little time shopping...

I am not a fan of black Friday

but I cannot resist Russell Stoffer's 

Factory Outlet!

Haven't turned on the furnace yet...

just using the corn burner

trying to get to December without

using it...apparently Fionn thinks it is a bit chilly!

Did a little farm work by loading 

and unloading 

30 bales of hay and straw 

for our critters

Yes, I am wearing heels...

"Green Acres is the place for me...."
