Friday October 7

The kids were pretty great again today.

Madi was a big help with moving some furniture in.

It will be nice to be completely moved in.

We need to get all the stuff we have in storage!

But if I get everything here in it's place, it will be easier to get rid of stuff we don't have room for that we have in storage!

That is my theory anyway.

After they got the art/playroom cleaned, I pulled out some beads for them.

Madi got busy and made several pairs of earrings and bracelets.

She and Cassi talked about making a jewelry business and calling it "Cool Jools".

I love it :)

She made a special BSU set.

Looks pretty good to me!

She also made some friendship ones for her and Kara.

Now we need to get Kara over here to come and hang out!!!!

I just love Cassi and her quirky fun-ness.

These are the earrings she made for herself today.

But my favorite part is the feather and flower she has clothes pinned to her vest.

I think those would make nice pieces for their jewelry business....what do you think?

Madi stuck to the jewelry making for quite some time.

She sure loves doing stuff like that!

She made this pair for me.

They are just perfect!

She also played photographer for me.....so i could have a picture with my cheesy cheesy little guy!

We had a visitor today....Sister Roll came out to see us.

Elsie was so excited.

We need our weekly fix of her....since we can't do it at church, we have to plan it out!

While she was here we talked about picking apples.

I figured we had picked all the good ones.

But later in the day I asked Madi and Cassi to take Port outside so I could get dinner done.

They came back with their arms full of apples.

I got bags for them and Elsie and I headed out to check it out.

Sure enough....lots of apples.

Good apples.

I will need to get a ladder out ad get some more good ones on top.

The girls were pretty proud of themselves!

I hope they are just as excited next year when we will be {hopefully} over-flowing with fruit......

I took all the kiddos for a ride around the place this evening.

We love it here.

Like really love it here.

I cannot believe this gets to be our life!

Look how cute that is?

Elsie all wrapped up around Porter.

Look at those toes.

Cracks me up!

Just adorable!
