Isaac with the tooth he just lost.

Cleaned out stuff in the upstairs bedroom and cleaned one closet upstairs.  Kenzie called me and wanted me to come see her new place.  I went and spent a little while with her.  Had to be home to go to Dennis and Amy's by 6.  Dennis cooked ginger chicken for us!  We put it over rice and it was delicious.  Amy made a banana pudding poke cake that was really yummy.  We played cards with them.  Played a game called Horse Collar.  It was lots of fun.  Amy won both games.  Isaac faceted us there to show us his tooth that came out.  So cute.  They thought it was so sweet that he would FaceTime us to show us his tooth.  Came home and watched the World Series Game.

10/27/16...Spent time with Hailey today

Picked Hailey up.  She just got home from school where she had to dress like the 80's.  Took this cute picture

Our selfie

Cleaned my side of the closet today.  Bill cleaned his yesterday so he motivated me.  We went to Art Van's to look at Bed Frames.  Then we went to Sam's Club and found a great deal on one.  We had some yummy samples while we were there.  At 3:30, I went to pick Hailey up.  We picked papa up and went to Taco Bell.  She had a Nacho Bell Grande, I had a double decker supreme and Bill had 3 tacos with no cheese.  It was pretty cold in the restaurant.  We headed to Culver's afterwards, for concrete mixers.  Hailey had vanilla with twix and oreo.   Bill had Vanilla with Nestle crunch and I had chocolate with banana, strawberry and cashews.  They were nice and let us use a coupon that had expired 3 days ago.  We came home after that and went through some shoes Kenzie didn't want and said Hailey could have.  Hailey watched a show she likes.  Took Hailey home at 8 so she could get her homework done.  Watched Fixer Uppers with Bill.

10/26/16...Walked 3 miles this morning at Sportszone. Peyton and Isaac had a half day of school so we went to McDonalds for their outing with Nana. Fun but cold

Found this nice pan I am putting on my Christmas list for Bill.  It can be used on my induction burner.  So far the best deal I have found but I am continuing to look!

The birds are really eating...they must know something!

Yep, the birds knew something alright





Went to Sports Zone to walk.  Ended up walking 3 miles at a fast pace.  Sure feels good to get my walking in.  Came home and talked to Vikki to see if she wanted to meet me at McDonald's to take Peyton and Isaac out to eat and play as they only had a half day of school.  We had fun and they were so good and so cute.  Vikki and I about froze in the playroom.  I went to ask them if they had the air on and she said it wasn't, they just didn't turn the heat on.  Vikki and I didn't even want ice cream because we were so cold.  Tomorrow is Hailey's day with me and then next week is Jacob, Adam and Eli's turn.  Love spending time with my grandkids.  They are the best!   Hailey's school is painting the windows at the Children's Museum tomorrow night at 5 and she didn't even want to go to it with her friends because she wanted to spend time with me.  What a precious granddaughter.  Took a pan back to Ollie's that I thought would work on and invection burner but didn't.  Looked for one at Walmart and found some.  They are pretty expensive.  Still have other places to check.  Went to church and taught kid's care group.  Nine kiddos in my class tonight.  We learned about making good decisions and asking God for help.  Came home and watched the World Series...Chicago vs. Cleveland

Me and Peyton

Jacob playing his clarinet at his concert.  He did great!

Vikki Eddy came over today and shared what she has learned about sex trafficking with Melissa, Vikki and me.  She has started a ministry at her church to make people aware of it and try to help stop it.  She did an amazing job and we were happy to be made aware of all the things going on, even though it was hard to hear and breaks your heart. She gave us each a folder of information and also got us each a beautiful hanging thing to remind us to pray.  We are working together to fill a clothes basket to give to a girl who has been rescued and is where she is getting the help she needs to heal.  We ate egg salad sandwiches on homemade warm bread, and salad. We used Grandma Daisy's china.  We had angel food cake with strawberries and cool whip on top for dessert.  Had a nice visit with Vikki.  Kenzie stopped in and ate a sandwich.  She took a shower.  Vikki left to get the kids, then Vikki E. left, and then Melissa left.  Kenzie left last.  Vikki and Peyton came back later and rode with Bill and I to Jacob's concert!  She surprised Kimmy by coming.  It was wonderful and Jacob plays amazing.  Loved seeing and hearing him.  All the kids did great and we sure enjoyed ourselves.  Loved seeing Eli and Adam and  Kimmy and Jared also.  Vikki brought combos for us to much on and she brought candy for each of the kids.  So sweet of her.

10/24/18...Vikki helped me clean the house. In the evening, wentto "Revive Us" at the theatre with Nancy and Randy.

Isn't James just the cutest.  He is the toy story character, Woody, for Halloween!  His mommy, Shannon is holding him.






Love these picture Rody posted


Nice picture of my best friend in the world, Vikki, her husband,Terry, and three grandkids.
Vikki came over in the morning and helped me clean the house.  She is the best cleaner ever.  Does a super job and is fast.  What a blessing to have her help me!  Kenzie stopped over and emptied her closet here out.  My friend, Vikki, has started a ministry at her church to make people aware of and help stop sex trafficking.  After we have lunch, she is showing a couple of videos and giving a presentation tomorrow so we know what to watch for.  I am excited to get to spend time with her and so are the girls.  Poor Kimmy got called in to work at the school all week so won't be able to come.  She was sad and we are sad she can't come.  Bill had an Elder's meeting tonight, so Nancy and Randy picked me up to go see "Revive Us" at the theatre.  There were lots of Christians there to watch it.  Phyllis and Andy met us there and sat with us.  The Holy Spirit really touched my heart.  
Kirk Cameron did an amazing job and so did everyone else.  His daughter sang beautifully.  
Got home and 5 minutes later, Bill got home.  Made egg salad for tomorrow and also mashed strawberries to have with angel food cake.  Baked one loaf of homemade bread and making 2 more in the morning.  Also making a salad up in the morning before Bill and I leave for a VA appt.

Bill...his shed is almost done

Went to church.  Worship was really good.  Peyton came and sat on my lap for a little while.  Pastor's message was rally good.  Went back with Stacie to pick up Kody so I could see him.   He gave me a big hug.  Went home and made goulash.  I had put the burger in the crockpot in the morning so that part was done so it didn't take long to make.   We ate and then Bruce, Melissa and the kids came over and brought their trailer to park.  The kids went to the trampoline right away and started jumping.  I had made brownies when I heard they were coming and just took them out of the oven.  The kids and Melissa came in and had some with cider.  We went outside and took some pictures.  Glad I remembered to do that.  It was so beautiful outside.  After they left, Bill and I started going over our lesson for care group.  Kenzie came over and packed some more stuff to take and took most of her clothes.  She took some goulash to work with her and also a couple of brownies.  She found an ugly spider in the garage and wanted me to come out and see it.  I went out and was so happy it was dead.  It looked like a mini tarantula we both thought.  UGLY!  
She left for work and Bill and I finished going through our lesson.  We left for care group.  Great snacks tonight and great lesson.  We are learning so much good stuff to apply to our lives.  Nancy and Randy volunteered to have our care group at their house in January because Pastor doesn't want the care group leaders to have to worry about cleaning the house or getting ready for group.  
Nice that Pastor is being so thoughtful, but never minded having it at our house.  Watched Fixer Upper with Bill.

Hailey is in the last row about 3 from the left.





Hailey is in front of the tall guy in back near the middle



Beautiful Hailey after the concert.  So proud of her being in the Honors Choir and Band

Spent my time with the Lord and then did some cleaning.  Bill is coming along really good with his shed.  It sure looks great.  Put corn husks from the garden into garbage cans to go Tuesday.  Went to Logan's at 3.  I drove and Bill took the motorcycle.  We got the two for $15.00 special. I had Salmon and he got ground steak.  Luis an Eva were there and then a half hour after we were visiting, Kenny came.  Saw Sam Shaw there when I was leaving.  I had to leave early so I could go to Hailey's Honor's Choir and Band Concert.  They sounded so good.  Loved being there and hearing the beautiful songs and music. Hailey did great and so did all the others.  Got some thank you's written and in the mail.  Bill and I watched a Movie called God's Club and then watched the news.  Took a personality test online that Pastor wanted everyone in the care groups to take.  I am an ISFJ Defender.
