Busy Bees...

Wow! I haven't gotten on in a while...so lets start the updating!

Friday we had a good evening. After work we all went to So & Mo's House and ate supper. Deer steaks with mashed potatoes and fresh green beans from the garden!! It was so YUMMY! But both me and Jonathan were soooo tired. We helped cleaned up the dishes and then headed to the house. We were all in bed by 9:15 sleeping!!! Which was great, cause we got lots accomplished Saturday.

Rheanna woke up early at 7:15 and started cleaning her room. ( Their cousin was coming over to play later but I told them that until their room and the whole house is clean, no one is coming over!!) So we got up and started the cleaning process. I had tons of laundry to do, and we still had to move the freezer to spot where I wanted it. Which meant Jonathan had to hook up an electric socket to that spot since there was no plug there. Needless to say he did it pretty quick! The house was cleaned and we even put up the Christmas tree and decor. And Jonathan put up the lights outside with the help of Jacob. Later Dawn, Dan, Chase, and Braden come over to play. They had lots of fun playing and they even got to put up lights on their own tree! We BBQ some steaks and had a great evening with a few more friends that joined later!

Chase stayed the night with us, and Sunday morning we woke up and went to church. All the kids did really well in church and I was surprised that Chase was really getting in to it. I could hear him and Rheanna singing! So cute! Jacob on the other hand just wanted me to hold him the whole time. ( I think he was just wore out and needed to get some more sleep!) Afterwards we went home and changed then headed to So & Mo's house. Mo (my Dad) and Jonathan shot my gun a few times to make sure it was sighted in, while me and So cooked spaghetti and made cheesy garlic toast! Mo took Rhea and Chase on the four-wheeler and now they apparently know where the deers hiding spots are!! LOL! We ate lunch, helped clean up, and then Jonathan, Mo, and I loaded up to go to Aunt Patty's deer lease in Palacios! All the kids stayed with my Wonderful and loving Mom. Thanks to my Mom for watching the kiddos! She's awesome!

We got down to Palacios about 2:15 and headed to the deer stands. Me and Jonathan in one stand, Mo in another and Patty just threw up her pop-up tent somewhere! The grass over there was so tall it was hard to see the deer, until they got to one little opening where the grass wasn't tall. Mr. Impatient Jonathan was so anxious to shoot I had to keep reminding him this isn't duck hunting you have to be patient and wait for the deer to come closer! He just had that deer fever running through him! The deer finally come closer and in the open area and we got it!!!! A nice doe! We were so excited, like two little kids again! LOL!

So we picked it up and cleaned it and headed home! So happy that I can fill up my deep freezer full of meat and won't have to go to the store and buy that yucky ground beef! Sorry, but my Dad makes the best ground meat out of deer and pork, HANDS DOWN!! Overall we had a great weekend!

But I am so ready for Thanksgiving! Until next time....God Bless!
