Inspection

Hi,
We had a great 4 day week-end at the lake. It was very windy but Ken was able to get a lot of the leaves cleaned up and hauled away. Mark and Rosemary were getting things put away and it was a good work week-end. I stayed in and got the kids thawed out after they were outside and we had hot chocolate and a big fire. Sunday we stopped in to see our friends Jason and Denise and their two girls. We ended up staying all afternoon adnt hen went out for pizza. It was a great time and they have 2 four wheelers so we took turns giving the kids rides.
I am having my inspection for my day care license tomorrow!!! YEAH!!! Then I should be ready to go. I am cleaning up today and Ken is off Thursday and Friday. He will take the kids out while the inspection is goin on so that will make it a lot easier. I will be glad to get this done.
Evan is going to head to Plymouth and spend the week-end with Grandma Dolly abnd Grandpa Gordy. the other kids and I are planning a sleep over with Denise and the girls. Saturday Ken and I are going out, YEAH!!!
Have a great week.

The Bus

Finally Got a Bus

After a little bit of a scare, we left for our trip to IA. The original plan was that Stacy would take off with the twins on Friday AM and Owen, Evan and I would go after my daycare child was picked up. Stacy and the twins left and after two hours in the car.........Abbie threw up! We thought it was best if they came back rather than chance giving the flu to Mom. They napped and we all left together at 5PM. With several potty breaks we made it there about midnight. Nobody threw up!!! Saturday we went to a pumpkin patch and the kids jumped in a huge blow up pumpkin, rode in wagons behind a lawn tractor, rode ponies, and laughed a lot! We had a great time! The kids picked out pumpkins and we took them to Grandma and Papa's and painted them. They turned out cute and are out on Mom and Dad's front porch. We then went out for Pizza, to Wal*Mart, naps, to the park, supper, and bed.
Saturday we went to see the Bracy's and I got to meet their twin girls. They are so beautiful! They are may be going home this week and are 3 weeks old today. What a great family. We had lunch with Aunt Karen and her two other grandchildren and all of the kids had a great time.
We got home about 10 on Sunday and it was a quiet ride form Rochester after we dropped off Aunt Stacy. The kids slept and went right from the van to bed. We came home to a a very clean house and supper made for Monday! What a great husband I have.
Thanks Stacy for helping me get the pictures on here so that we could see tham and not need a magnifying glass.
Have a great week!!

Hi,
Another beautiful week-end. Ken had a conference in the cities and we went up there Thursday and stayed the night. Evan missed school but they had a great time. We got to swim and Friday we went to see our friend Bonnie. Evan spent Friday with Grandma Dolly and Grandpa Gordy. Saturday we hung out at home and the kids got to play in the leaves. They had a great time. I finished painting in the familyroom and it looks so much different and brighter. Sunday we went to church and had naps.
We are heading to IA for the week-end and are excited to see Mom and Dad. We are also hoping to see Terra and Tony and their girls. They are all doing great and just waiting to get out of the hospital.
That is all for now. Have a great week.

The Bracy's

Hi,
Here is a picture of my cousin Terra, her husband Tony, and their girls, Kinzie & Kylie. They were born on the 26th of Septmeber and are all doing great. They hope to take the girls home by the end of the week. They are just darling!! Congrats to all of them.
We stayed in Mankato on Saturday and ran a lot of errands and Ken haoued a bathtub insert. Got a lot done around the house. Sunday we went to Emma Krumbee's, an orchard 45 minutes north. the kids could run and play and have fun in the sun. It was 85 and lots to do. There was a huge hay stack to jump in, pony & camel rides, tractor rides, picking apples, scarecrow contest, trike rides, and a big slide. the kids had fun and we met Dolly and Gordy there. It was a great day.
We are so thankful for all of the family and friends that we have and are glad that we can spend time with them.
Mom had her last chemo treatment on Thursday and will have 6 weeks to heal and build up some strngth before her radiation starts. She should be done with that be Christmas but now is considered to be in remission. YEAH!! Way to go Mom!
That is all for now. Still no word on the paper form IA to get my daycare license so we just wait.
Have a great week!
Love,
Krista
