A Week to Remember

This has been quite a week and it's not even to the weekend yet.....whew!

To start it off, Owen pulled his first top tooth!  He was quite proud of himself.

 

And we're all happy for him - it's truly a family celebration when a tooth comes out and mom and dad are celebrating because we haven't had to pull a tooth, yet.  So far, Kristyn and Owen have pulled them by themselves!!!

Good job, Owen!

 We've had a lot of visitors to our garden this week.  One day Jeren came running in shouting, "Mama, there's a rabbit in our salad!"

The squirrels have been fattening up on our tomatoes - their number decreases almost daily, thanks to BB's. :)

Then there's the birds - which we all love to watch - that come to our flowers along the garden. 
On the left, hanging up-side-down is a woodpecker (I think) and to the right with it's head stuck in a sunflower is a golden finch.

Can you get any cuter?

Then we've had a little "falling out of the fort" incident that resulted in this....(No, she has not been smiling like this the whole time - most of the time, it's tears)

I found an older uniform shirt this morning that had a hole in the sleeve, so I cut it off to fit over her cast.

Did you notice she also pulled one of her teeth this week?.....if you have any extra change laying around and want to donate it to the tooth fairy, there is one that is frequenting our house - we'd be happy to give it to her on her next stop - HA!!!

Kristyn wanted me to write something on her cast and since she was melting in tears wondering how she would ever be able to function for the next few weeks with this thing, I decided to write some Bible verses that might help her along. :)

So now, we're looking to coast through the weekend with nothing but fun and relaxation - we'll see what happens, but it's a nice thought anyway!

Have a great weekend, Friends!
