O.K. I've FINALLY updated this blog!!! It's been so many months, that it's taken me the last 2 hours updating this!! We are all doing very well, and the fall has just flown by. I can't believe that Thanksgiving is now passed and we are heading into the Christmas holiday!! As most of you know we decided to homeschooling the boys' again this fall, and thank the Lord = it has been going very well!! The pictures below are from one of our field trips we took this fall - horseback riding out at Wild River State Park. We are involved with a homeschool co-op at First Isanti Baptist Church were we meet every other Tuesday and the boys' get to take certain classes and be around other homeschool children their age. They have extremely enjoyed this! Well enjoy the next several pages of pictures, and hopefully it won't take me another 6 months to add more!! lol

Joshua and his first front tooth - GONE!!! He had to have the other one pulled out this past Monday because the permanent tooth was coming in up above it - as you can see even in this fuzzy picture.

Caleb - oh, he's so photogenic!!!! He's a riot on this horse!!!! You should have been there!!! lol

Micah and his horse. They have ridden enough at summer camp that this was a piece of cake!!

Joshua riding his horse! I tell ya, they're all pro's at this!!

We went to a "Haunted Corn Maze" with our frineds Jeremy and Michelle, and a total of 5 boys'!!! Of course they loved scaring us Mom's just as much as the people hiding in the corn!! lol

Micah has decided to take some time off from Tae Kwon Do, and take up violin lessons for awhile. We are so proud of him! He's been practicing, and practicing Silent Night to play for our Christmas Eve program, and for Grandpa and Grandma Perry!!

I got up one morning to see this written on my white board in the kitchen. It's my first note written by Joshua! It's precious!!!!

This fall the boys' and I had the opportunity to head to Colorado with Grandpa and Grandma Perry, and Uncle Matthew for 2 weeks. We saw some of the most beautiful country, rock hunted, went to old abandoned gold mines and one that is still in operation, amuzement park, and lots of other fun stuff. The following pictures are just some of the many that we took!

Grandpa's shadow.....Micah

Micah was our professional rock hunter - all the way from his safety glasses to grandpa's pick !!
