Dang Saturday, you rocked
My man got him a sweet one in Montana today. Hello jerky!!!
The girls and I spent time attempting to get a handle on the leaves. Fall has fallen... All up in my yard.
Molded pumpkins don't burn so well and this poorly made fire pit that previous owners built is useless lol. Time to raze it and put in a big ole swing. 
After hours spent chasing us around the yard, my little man was wore out...
Foot surgery next month looks like I get my Myrphy man back and Max will go on the road with dad... Trading dogs, but they make us happy.

Scared but Praying
We just submitted the application for my oldest to attend her first full fledged missions trip. To South America... this summer. Without us. She'll be spreading her wings and flying. She will be supervised by a very capable church team that does missions all over the world.... but she's my baby. I just feel so strongly that I need to help her achieve her goal of serving. She has wanted to do missions for some time now and each time, we find some reason to say no. This time, we are saying yes. It might not work out... but her application is in and I'm walking on faith. I'll not stand in the way of God using her to spread his love. That said, oh please pray for her.... she'll be 17.5 at the time she goes... but in some ways, she's 60 so I'm trying not to let seeds of doubt stand in the gap. Watching her serve God would be the biggest blessing...
Once again, Dave is cool and calm while I'm the weirdo freak out person... oh this marriage of mine is a wild ride.

Hello Blessings
Oh blessings truly come in different sizes and shapes. I'm watching my girls grow and settle. It's such an amazing site. It's not easy but I will take my troubles over anyones'. The oldest is stretching her wings and doing well. She's learning to adult well. She's to the point where she's full on juggling homeschool full time in the mornings (five subjects) and in the afternoon she is down at the community college carrying an A plus in her pre-nursing class. If she stays on task, she'll be a state certified CNA in March and able to get on the wait list for the BSN program at the college. English has always been a trouble spot for her but doing the online class where she paces herself and turns things into for grading.... well she's doing well. American History is her best subject, shocking both her and I. Now if she could get over the hump in chemistry and make that association between logic and the lessons, she'll be golden.
The younger one is really finding out who she is. Turns out, she's determined not to quit. As one of nine in her entire grade, she gets alot of attention at school and she's working ahead. Robotics club has been a blessing for her. Her gym class is set up for only girls, they run. The rest of the girls are cross country and while my kid refuses to be seduced by the perks to the dark side... aka: cross country team..... she is stepping up in PE class. It's her last class of the day....and get done my kid makes me proud. The first week of school she'd casually get off the bus and climb up the driveway, come through the door then collapse on the floor and crawl. Bless her heart, they run. Every day. She refuses to let me write a note, so she's been working her way up and now can run a mile a day during class. She's Dave's kid. She hates running with a passion and talks a good game but man, she works hard to work her way up from last place. It's been five weeks since school started and we had to go buy new school clothes this weekend, she lost two sizes. I'm packing protein and carbs galore in her lunch but she's getting taller and thanks to her PE class, leaner and meaner. I really enjoy buying her shirts that call out her hate of running though lol.
Dave is really doing well. Since I drove up and brought Max home with me, Dave has been able to focus on work. He's getting closer and closer to being done with this project. He has worked out a deal with corporate where he works from our house here at the lake one week a month too so that makes him even more of a rockstar to me.
I'm juggle writing for all these papers, redoing my furniture pieces and wrangling kids. Max keeps me so very busy. He's truly a velcro dog and needs to be with me constantly, I have no idea how Dave managed to keep sane and working with him. Now that we are finally settled in, I love our home here. Tomorrow I'll try to do a whole post on the updates Ive been working on the house....
For now, I'ma go finish bleaching my towels and get busy putting potato soup in the crockpot for after church lunch. It's in the 70's here so it's lovely. I've enjoying the hell outta my hammock.
Hugs.
