Thanksgiving and the hectic morning after

Hello. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. We had a nice visit with our guest. It was a lot of work, but everything turned out pretty well. We did use a new brine recipe for the Turkey and the Turkey was way too salty, but all in all it was fine. We played Monopoly and Life yesterday. Last night I did clean up while the kids watched Incredibles and Dodge Ball on and off. I went to bed at 9pm so I could get up at 4am and going catch the "worm" at Wal-mart. I got close to $120 worth in gifts, but I only spent $76. All of our shopping is done except for a movie that Joy wants that comes out Dec. 11th. Bruce and I need to shop for each other still too. Wal-mart was very busy, but most people were very polite. Have a great weekend.

Hello,
Not a whole lot going on around here. Patience is better. Joy is suffering from a cold/allergies. Logan and Aurora are also doing better. We didn't do a whole lot this last weekend. We did have family photos taken. I'll try to post them as soon as I get them. 3 families, including ours, met in a local park and took turns taking pictures of each others families. Bro. Bliss will burn it to disc, then we can print them from that. I think we got some good ones.

Joy is being recognized tomorrow at an Academic Allstars Night. It is for children who go an average or above average score on the MAP test last year. We are having Thanksgiving here this year. I think I now have everything we need.

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!!!

Sick kids again

Patience and Logan are ill. Logan has a cold and low grade fever, but Patience has pneumonia. She's on an antibiotic. Hopefully she'll be back to school tomorrow. She has a field trip on Thurs, so she's really hoping to be better. Please pray for her.

Funny Logan

On Sunday we were driving to church and Aurora said her back hurt. I asked her why and she said because of the bow on her dress. I told her we would fix it at church. Logan then said, "I have a bow." Aurora said, "No you don't." He said, "Yes I do, its' right here." He proceeded to point at his elbow. We got a kick out of that. I hope you do too.

Wu Man and Friends

Last night Bruce and I had the opportunity to go see a concert for free at the college. Sister Vance babysat. It was a very fun evening. We saw some instruments that we didn't even know exsisted. We heard music from China, Africa and an American from North Carolina that played indian music and folk type music. It was all very interesting.

Our friend, Matt, came down for the evening as well.

That's about all.
