The Everyday

Old man winter is on his way, making for alot of inside time. It takes a bit of getting used to... being in the house so much.
So we do crafts, bake, read stories, make forts, and generally hone our "lets find something to do" skills.
Here are a few {too many} pictures of our ordinary, everyday life in November :)

Rowan reading while watching the others have a bath...nothing like starting while you're young!

Sunday afternoon ritual - chips and coke after the second church service:)

Hard at play! 

Quite the track they had going!

Masks for craft time (mommy does the cutting, the boys do the gluing :)

I love how much concentration they put into making Rice Krispie balls!

It's always a treat for them when I let them "do" my hair.  Even Rowan has to get right in on it!

My little happy clown! I am so biased, but I really could just smother this man with snuggles!

Trick or Treating in the kitchen (it worked - they got marshmallows!).

Popcorn making time! In their own words:  "Lekker"!!!

Another month went by, 

four weeks, 

31 days.  

Moments in time which bring so many lessons, joy and tears. So much to be thankful for.  So much to learn from, grow from, experience grace from.

In short:

Every week again we look back and stand amazed at all that has been done. All that has happened, and how fast time is flying. 

Every week again we are thankful for Sunday. A day of rest and worship. To be refreshed spiritually and physically.

Every week we eagerly look forward to see what the week will hold and to enjoy it and work hard in the tasks God gives us.

Thank-You Lord.
