Life is good

NOVEMBER
 Life is good and life is happening. I will have to look at my phone to see what pictures were taken and what we've been doing to keep busy.

 Zoe has been searching for the best hot chocolate recipe.  She decided to use one from the friend magazine.  She has so much time before school and she uses her time well.  She gets up with everyone to read scriptures and say prayer.  She quickly gets all of her homework done(she does it in the morning because it is the only time she gets the computer).  She then eats breakfast, packs her lunch and sets her stuff all through the house.  She practices piano and art.  Some days she wants to spend her time making special treats for everyone.  The hot chocolate was a hit and the mix she made only lasted a week.

 Grandma and Grandpa Phillips Came for a visit.  I know they were just here but KC is moving forward in the priesthood and they came to support.  We played games and shopped, ate out way too much, but that gave us plenty of time to visit with each other.  Grandma was always there to help the kids with homework and house projects.

 Samantha needed finger pants for a school project.  We thought it was funny and picture worthy. 

 Yeah Zoe's tether ball got put together and the girls are having a blast.  It was 28 degrees outside and look how they are dressed.  Too cold for me but I was able to bundle up and join them for some games.

I harvested 300 green tomatoes just before the freeze.  I used some to make a green pasta sauce.  It wasn't the worst my family has eaten but it didn't go over so well.  The second time I used it I mixed it with a red sauce.  It takes two jars per pasta meal to feed the family so I thought a half & half would work.  They ate it with no complaints.  I then did some research on the green tomatoes and I have been able to keep them so they are slowly turning red and we can continue to have fresh ripe tomatoes in our salads.

I have more pics but I need to spend some time on photo books.
