Christmas Tree

Justin is very proud of the Christmas Tree. He put on the decorations, at least from the middle down!! Brian put the train around the bottom today and Justin has knocked it over more times than we can count!!

Waiting for Daddy

Justin was all pooped out after we put up the tree, and fell asleep on the couch. He wanted to wait up for his daddy, but didn't make it!! Justin spent the last couple of nights at grandpa and grandma's, playing with his cousins. When Aunt Katie brought him home, Brian was on his way to Clarkston, so Justin only got to see him for a couple of minutes, needless to say that on Sunday, I went to church by myself, because Justin would not leave his daddy!!

Apple Turkey

Justin made this apple turkey at school for their Thanksgiving party. It has colored marshmellows for the tail feathers. It is the cutest thing ever!!!

Baby Bump #4

I think Mary has gotten bigger in the week since the last picture!! This is the 33 week picture.

Baby Bump #3

Mary at her baby shower. She was 32 weeks in this picture. We all had a lot of fun and Mary and the baby got a lot of really nice things!! But no diapers and wipes!!

Yummy Pennsylvania

Welcome to Chocolate World!! This has to be the yummiest place on earth!! I hope all of you can make it out there at least once, you will have the time of your life!! Thanks for everything Andrea!!

Andrea at Chocolate World

When we went to Chocolate World, we got shakes, and I just could not resist taking this picture!! Love you sooooooo much!!!

Hershey Syrup

I took this picture for mom!! I thought she would like to see all that yummy chocolate syrup!!

Hershey Cocoa

This picture was taken at the chocolate factory- Andrea and I are the little bumps in front of the "O".

Hershey Stacks

Andrea and I took pictures all over with the News Journal, so we can put it in the newspaper. I think this is the one I will use.

Amish Buggy #2

The buggies stop at the stoplights just like the cars, and people are very patient to let them go at their own pace. There was no honking or road rage- maybe everyone should take a lesson from the Amish!! VERY COOL TO SEE !!! Thanks, Ammon and Andrea for taking time to go out there!!!

Amish Buggy

There are these buggies on the road all over the country, where the Amish live. They just go down the side of the road, next to the cars. Their buggies have blinkers!! - I thought this was really cool !! The older people would nod at you if you said hello, but the kids would talk to you. Andrea had a talk with a young man who was making birdhouses.

Amish laundry #2

Everywhere you go there is laundry out being dried, and the Amish people were out working their land. We saw them raking the leaves, mowing the lawns- with the old cutters by hand- and we saw little road side stands where they sell items from their gardens of things that they have made. IT WAS AWESOME!!!

Amish Laundry

The Amish have a pulley system to get the laundry to the top of the post. I also saw the laundry going from the house to the top of a barn!!

Halloween Night!!

Justin loved riding in the trailer to go Trick or Treating!! Susan and Stacey had to help him in and out and were probably very tired at the end of the night, but he enjoyed himself until about 8pm, when he told Suasn he was DONE! Needless to say I had to go pick him up so the rest of the kids could keep going! Susan said that he would have a talk with everyone at their doors or would try and take down their decorations! What a little stinker!! Mom and I followed on dad's machine for awhile to take a few pictures and then went for a drive up by the cemetery- we did not see any ghosts thank goodness!! Then we went over to Susan's house and watched -The Haunting- with Julie, until mom made us turn it so she would be able to sleep!!

Trick or Treating #2

The girls could not wait to get into their candy!! I bet a couple of them were sick the morning after (today), from eating so much candy!! They all had a lot of fun and got more candy than you can shake a stick at!!

Trick or Treating #1

The boys were all tuckered out after they got back from trick or treating, but not to tired to start in on the candy!!
