1 Samuel 2:2 NASB
… I rejoice in Your salvation.
Indeed, there is no one besides You,
Nor is there any rock like our God.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Today’s Smile-Megan Grins
Megan is starting to smile! Doesn’t she look like she is up to mischief?

Real Pictures
Today I went to pick up some pictures that I had taken of Megan. I had a free coupon for a “newborn package” from a very well known company. The pictures are cute. But I was disappointed on the cropping job. The smaller pictures are okay. But in the 8 X 10, Megan fills the whole picture, with no room for a frame. Because her head is touching the sides, your eye moves to her clothes, not her adorable face. Now I have to go back and try to get it fixed, or have a picture that I am not too excited about.
So. I decided to prove that I can get the picture that I want, without spending lots of money or lots of time at a fancy photography studio. I am pretty happy with the results. Remind me this next time I want to get pictures taken somewhere! 🙂
Today’s Smile, Sermon Notes
When I doodle while taking notes, I color in O’s and draw stars. Simple things. I much prefer Mark’s doodling!
Today’s clown made me smile! While watching Mark draw it, I knew it would be a keeper.
Thank you, Mark, for letting me share your wonderful art work!.
Today’s Smile, New Hairstyles
For church today, all three girls had a new hairstyle. All were easy to do, and very beautiful!
Two Uses for a Tarp
There are lots of leaves still on the ground. We plan on working on then for the next few days, hoping to get them finished before it rains.
Yesterday, Mark and Andrea came up with a fun way to transport leaves. They tied a tarp to their bicycles and pulled it to the woods. There they untied the tarp and dumped the leaves. Mark enjoyed being able to ride in the woods with his bike. (They learned quickly to plan their ride and peddle at the same speed!)
When they were finished with the leaves, they made a kite with the tent. It was fun to fly!
I asked Mark what they were planning to do with their kite. He said, “we were wanting to tie it Megan’s stroller. Well, to make it pull Megan’s stroller.”
I asked, “What does Momma think of that idea?” Mark said, “No, probably not! But we would have had someone running alongside it, to catch it if it started to fall.”
Momma still said “No!” But I loved their ideas 🙂
Following in Brother’s Footsteps
Megan says she is a hunter explorer too! Her snake’s name is Hissy and very friendly.
Adrian
Adrian came upstairs all ready to go exploring! He is a hunter, pirate, explorer, scientist. He is exploring the back yard for deer.
In his bag at his side, he has a poisonous frog with a hurt back right leg. The frog has a band-aid on it and Adrian is nursing it back to health.
Today’s Smile
After a bath, Megan’s hair is curly while it is wet. As it dries, it sticks up all over the place.
I think it is adorable!
