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!

Christmas Preparations & Finishing up Second Semester

2017 seemed to be a year full of new adventures and "firsts"! I hadn't been home for all the hustle and bustle of Christmas for 5 years and boy did I ever miss it! Starbucks and studying for finals filled my December Experiencing and practicing out skills out in the "field" - preparing us for our final practical Something I've really missed doing - hanging the Christmas lights out at the farm! This year Ben helped James and I - a great night filled with music, laughter, and cookies (thanks Jo-Jo)  "Festival of Lights" - OWEN SOUND  It was a very wet/rainy night, but it was PERFECT! Ben and I had so much fun walking around Owen Sound talking, laughing, and experiencing the beginning of many new Christmas things together!

They also did a great job at displaying many different set ups of Christmas lights!  Oh, and what better ...

(Parts of) Family Day

Family Day was different this year then others - it had become an annual tradition to go hiking, however due to some conflicting plans it didn't work out this year! Some went here, others there, yet we were all together for dinner!  I took Faith and the two youngest boys swimming - there was hardly anyone there, the boys so enjoyed it!  Game time  Music Time  Grandma wanted help cutting out her runner...  At 10pm I got inspired to do a cake - I had a gracious helper:) My Dad's project for the day! It's so nice - getting all these projects done around here!

Sunday Afternoon

 One Sunday afternoon I brought these adorables back to the farm for some fishing! It's all I could do to get them to stop!                                     Hudson wanted to keep catching them, didn't think that it mattered if we couldn't eat them all!
