Mark at bed time...

Last night at bed time...

Me (talking to Mark): "It is time for bed little guy."

Mark: "Me need to brush me teeth and ..."

Me: "You are right you need to brush your teeth."

Mark (jumping up and down): "No!" "No!"  "Mommy me need to brush me teeth and shave!!!"

Me: "Ok, Mark you can brush your teeth but I think you can hold off on shaving for a few more years."

Check out the smile!

Thank you Lynniece & family!

Our very cute South Korean baby!

Life in OK...in Sept

This past weekend was spent decorating the house and having company over for the first time. It was so much FUN, both the decorating and the guests! We have started to make connections here in Enid and it such a blessing to meet the people God has placed in our lives so far! The fall weather is also just ideal for enjoying the outdoors! So, we have been making the most of it by walks, runs, campfires, playing in the yard and just enjoying the peaceful view from our backyard! Thank you, LORD!

Joseph has now built the, as we like to call it, “Plastic Monstrosity” in the backyard. We are hoping the neighbors still like us... We know our kids do! They are having a ball climbing all over it.

Slowly but surely we are getting unpacked and settled in…hope some day soon I will be able to report that the last box has been gone through!!!

Finger painting FUN!

Mark and Andrew did a little finger painting…very fun and messy…thankfully they were outside!

Campfire

This past weekend we had fun making a campfire in our backyard. As part of our eventual landscaping plans, including a fire pit is one of the must-haves. We are still unpacking and hope this “fun” will soon come to an end. In addition to having too much “stuff” we have found that each of our projects take up a bunch of space. So, we are going to have a shop built sometime this fall. That way Joseph will have space to work on his plane and I hope to someday get back on the potter’s wheel. Plus it brings the added benefit of getting all our cars out of the weather instead of in our driveway!
