Well my family and I had a wonderful time that fall, 2007!!!  We were living in the GA mountains, and loved being able to have the windows open and sit out on the front porch and read and read and read...and eat...and read!!!!  We took it really easy with our schooling that year.  There were so many changes with the move and the baby coming we decided to pretty much, just read...and finish our math work books!!!  I believe we also finished 3 of the Ralph Moody books that year!!! 

One of our favorite past times was taking car rides.  We got lost so many times just driving through the mountains and exploring.  We ended up at the top of this mountain once.  We were positive no one lived there, but there at the top was a beautiful log cabin.  I guess these people didn't get much company.  They invited us in right away and showed us around and also let the kids swing on their tree swing.  You don't find friendliness like that in the big city that is for sure!!!!

Another thing we decided to do with Dillon and Jessica was to teach them how to cook.  They learned how to make oatmeal, pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon (actually they knew how to make that already), Roast chicken in the oven with carrots and potatoes, pasta, meat sauce; just to name a few.  It ended up being a huge help after the baby was born.  They loved having the grown up responsibility.  They loved knowing that they were needed to keep our family going.  Especially with me being pregnant, I didn't have the most energy to do all I needed to do!!!  So thankfully they took on the culinary part of our lives with much enthusiasm and it was a huge blessing to Mike and I!!
