Stuffing is finished and in the smoker! Our old one went south on us so Dad made a new one that is much easier to use! We had to borrow some of our neighbor's ashes because presently, our 37 yr old wood stove is not working.

Cole’s Birthday

So I know that Cole’s birthday was January 26th, but since I was in Oklahoma I didn’t have the chance to tell you all about it!

On Friday the 24th, we had five little boys come to our house from school.

IT WAS LIVELY

They had wrestling matches and all of them were very equal! there was only one match that one kid came close to winning. Dad was the referee:)023009
