It's seems like forever since I posted.  Thats how crazy it has been.  We took a trip to Holiday World this past weekend.  It was so much fun.  The children had a blast.  We spent 11 hours in the park Saturday and the weather was perfect.  We came home Saturday night and had a flat tire at 11:00 that night.  We called the state trooper , not because my husband doesn't know how to change a tire, but because we needed some lights.  You couldn't see anything except cars and trucks rushing by on the interstate.  Very scary when your husband has to lay on his back to get the spare out from under the car.  You just pray that the other cars will see us.  God was with us though and the state trooper got there in minutes and flashed his big lights.  It did take a while to get the tire changed though.  We didn't just have a flat, we completely lost the tire.  There was nothing left of it.  

  Caitlin and Jonathans big sister is visiting with us this week. I picked up my mother at the airport last night and my brother and his family are coming on Thursday.  My mother was going to stay with us but Olivia has some kind of stomach flu.  So my mom is staying at my sister's.  A whole mile away! LOL I am so glad she is here.  I don't get to see her often enough as she lives in Nevada.  

  My garden is looking great!  I think we are going to have to put a fence around it though to keep the dogs and chickens out.  Of course the chickens can fly over.  But maybe it will deter them.  Speaking of chickens, we found one of the Barbies (buff chicken) dead behind the small coop.  It looked  like she got her head stuck in the fence. Very sad.  Now I only have one Barbie left.  

  Yesterday I spent disinfecting the entire house and washing towels and sheets.  Anything that Olivia came in contact with.  Towels and blankets take forever.  I do love the way they smell after hanging on the line though.  Today I will be doing more laundry and hopefully baking.  I got my grain mill back this past week. Yeah!!!  Bread, here we come!!! I hope everyone has a great day.
