We're back...

I realize most of you probably didn't even know my family was gone from Friday until this evening. I have lots of pictures to post but I just wanted to say "Hi!" and share something. It still gives me the creeps. I went to start laundry tonight. The bucket that I keep the dirty diapers in got left by the back door, next to the washer, last week when I did the laundry. I don't recall leaving it outside for a period of time...but maybe I did. Anyway, I went to start a load of laundry, looked over into the bucket to move it, and saw a BAT! Yes, there was a bat laying face down, dead, inside the bucket. I have no idea how it got there. As I said, I may have left it outside overnight, but I can not be sure. I don't think I did....and....if I didn't....how did it get in the house and why did it land in the bucket. Yuck...hubby is disposing of it now.

That is pretty gross. Are any of your windows opened even a crack without a screen? We had a window AC unit and the window would slide down just a crack (they were double hung windows). I guess bats like little cracks and one came in our bedroom and was on the rafter. I walked in and thought, "I don't remember that big knothole in the wood." Then I realized what it was.

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
