6 Boys - 2 days

Brought three of Henry + Heathers boys home Saturday night and they were able to spend a few days here with our boys! Was nice for all of them I think!
Any motorized vehicle they could find, they drove... basically:)
Hendrick and Jonathan spent the morning fishing...
So I filleted the five fish and they had fresh trout for lunch! They said it was yummy!

They slept in the tent all three nights - even though two of those nights it down poured! It was a spur of the moment "Rach, can we come to your house" so they didn't have any of their clothes, however Jonathan and Micah had tons to go around - or so we thought! They spent so much time outside in the mud... so many changes of clothes... so good to have the boys here though! 
It's not often that our younger boys get the opportunity to play with children their own age, think they all enjoyed it! Hope they don't all get extreme colds now though! 

Took the boys back and was able to do some good grocery shopping, visited a bit with Henry and Heather + Co. - always such a blessing, encouragement - then back home - long, busy day, but so thankful for it! Especially those special moments!

Dear Followers, I apologize for not writing on the happenings in the last few months! Many new opportunities, many ups and downs, but through it all - there is so much to learn, and hopefully in the process He's making us into stronger people, becoming more and more like Him! December was filled with lots of different Christmas happenings, get together's, music opportunities, visitations, baking, eating of yummy food, and spending time with family!  I maybe took 3 or 4 pictures - not much to show, but will be bringing more pictures of the upcoming months!  New Years - I was sick again, so I was home alone, while everyone went else where to ring in the New Year!

I will be Mrs. Tallman ...background story!

Our story began August 20th, 2017 when through a fluke we got paired up to work a 12 hour shift together. Benjamin proved to be an incredible listener and super easy to talk to. This one shift turned into many more as Ben went to the supervisor (unbeknownst to me) requesting the same schedule. These shifts proved to be a highlight in my week and I couldn't wait to get on the truck every other Sunday with Benjamin. I cannot tell you when we started dating, but our first time meeting up to study (outside of work) was October 12th after school in a Starbucks in Grimsby, ON. Benjamin was a once in a lifetime friend and I was growing to admire and respect the man I saw in him. Finally, our school semester was over and we were able to spend a bit more time together and getting to know each others families. He fit into my family so well from day one. My siblings adored him as he took time to listen to them and be interested in their lives! Christmas together was amazing...and then it was ...
