I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him
with thanksgiving. – Psalm 69:30

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his love endures forever. – 1 Chronicles 16:34

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name. – Psalm 100:4

I will give you thanks, for you answered me;
you have become my salvation. – Psalm 118:21

It is time. I post “Grace Stories” and they are a hit. Well, my Little Man is ready for his “stories” too. He has started saying so many funny things lately. Talk about a rascal!

Owen was quiet, too quiet. I heard him say “want wash my hands.”

It didn’t really sink in until he had been quiet a little while longer.

I went into the bathroom and found this…

This evening I was doing the dishes and I heard Owen say “put spider Mommy’s slipper.”
Me: “WHAT did you say?”
Owen: “Found spider on wall, put spider Mommy’s slipper. Silly spider!”

I have a few more pictures from July. These were taken at the parade that is held in July in our town.

There were a lot of tractors in the parade and then they parked in the park across from our house. Owen thought that was pretty special.

Tired kids

It’s the week of Thanksgiving. Is that too late for posting pictures from July?

I have been archiving pictures and have a few that I meant to post a bit earlier…

Daisy is the most patient dog. She loves playing in the water.

We snuck up on ‘em, they really didn’t know what hit ‘em! They thought they’d beaten us!

Wow, was that the most exhausting Go Ducks of the season!
Oregon 44, Arizona 41 in 2OT.

Frankly, we are still be a bit dazed…

Bring it on Beavs! We’ll chew you up and spit you out too!

I smell roses!

Ok Duck fans! Run on over to this website and watch the I Love My Ducks video. You could also search for it on youtube…

I don’t know how long it will be up as the Duck is a trademark and it wasn’t authorized, but the video is great!

I smell roses too!

Snow Bunny…

It’s all about the boots

I think the lack of pants makes her look taller…

Posts that is.

Well, actually Happy 501! But it doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, does it? Math was never my thing. I am not sure how I messed up when WordPress does the counting for me…This should have been on Wednesday to be the true “500th” post, but whatever…here it is all the same.

I can’t help myself. Two Daisy posts in a row.

We had “big” wind storm last night followed by a night of rain. But, I just couldn’t bring myself to lock Daisy up inside all day.

She ran herself silly all day.

Around 3:30 I looked out the window and saw this…

The sweet pup had nestled up in the leaves that had blown into the corner of the fence. She was curled up like a little deer. Of course she has excellent hearing and heard me through the window and moved her head. But she was still cute.

There was no way I could let her in without a bath. She had mud caked up under her belly.

Have you ever seen a more pitiful pup. She hates getting a bath, but loves running around once she’s clean.

Grace said “Mom, why do you want pictures of something so nasty?!?!”

Well, I just can’t help myself!
