A Holly Jolly December

Happy New Year all! It's crazy to think that 2018 is already in the past. December was by far one of the busiest months of 2018. I think it's safe to say that everyone's highlight was definitely Maddy coming home!

I finally got Katherine and Peyton's yearly photos done!

Our churchs' annual Christmas Program

Yep...that's Joe;)

Peyton, Havi, and Joe's group did a great job!

The Cook Family Singers!

This was Ashley, Izzy, and I's first time participating. It was a lot of fun!

Faith Cook sang a beautiful solo

Isaiah didn't last long!

At the Neidnagel's beautiful home for dinner and a movie

Izzy and Kalea preferred to stay three feet apart from one another;)

The sweet hostess!

Seeing their silhouettes was pretty entertaining!

Isaiah admiring the tree, aka, taking the ornaments off and playing with them.:)

Ashley put together these cute little gifts for friends

So wonderful having good friends from CO over for a visit!

Most of the kids

Selfies are great!

Isaiah was excited!

We had her blindfolded

We were able to pull it off! Thanks to everyone who came and made it even more special!

Welcome home Maddy! It's been too long.

Went to the woods to get family pictures

Merry Christmas from the Coulters!:D

Went to Silver Dollar City for the last time in 2018. Norah and Mary are in the 4th row.

So glad the Lang's could come!

Waiting to watch, "It's a Wonder Life".

This is what happens when you forget Isaiah's coat and all you have is Joe's.

The lights are so amazing!

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos! This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model! Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite! They make for good pets...when they're little anyway! When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields... ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough Meet the new bull calf, Demitri! ...

Izzy's 12 Year Old Pictures

Now that Isabelle has been 12 for a month now, I finally got around to getting her pictures done! This post will be short and sweet and a big long one will be coming soon (hopefully)!

JULY

Hello everyone!! Hope you all had a great July!! :) Ours included a 4th of July celebration, a brand new litter of 10 pigs, stocking up on hay for the winter months, a gun safety course we three older ones went through, a chicken butchering day, topped off with Ava Park fun with friends, a trip to Silver Dollar City, and creek fun! Shall we begin? Our enthusiastic grill major for the 4th of July. I’m not sure about her, but the food was a 5+ rating! Can’t get more patriotic than this picture *wink* Whenever friends stop by for a visit and bring a cake, there will be no complaints here!….Until everyone gets a sugar high. In honor of the 4th, I’ll share one of my favorite quotes: “Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom. Thank them both today.” Ended the night with a bang, like (I’m assuming) everyone else did! And the very next day,… 10 of ‘em born on the 5th....
