Picture Post :)

First week of November.....first scrape worthy frost of the year! :)

That same morning, heard the dogs barking. Went outside and discovered a pig in our yard. Wasn't sure if it was wild or not? Danny was SO ready to get out his gun. We later discovered it was the neighboring farms pig. They got him back in the pen, only for him to show up again later in the morning! Not sure what his fate was? 

The teens who volunteer with the local Calhoun County Teen Court were treated to a day in Tallahassee with Judge Grover and Cissy Barfield. I went along as a chaperone.

Our first stop was to the State Supreme Court to watch a case.

Then we toured the FL capitol and met Senator Bill Montford.

The whole crew....

The chaperones! :)
Myself, Brandy, Patty, Denise and Troy.

GEMS (Gospel Express Ministries South) Annual Benefit Auction

This little girl cracked me up....she did a good job of displaying the item that was selling and then getting it to the highest bidder! :) Later she came and sat beside me and she wasn't shy! :)

The Covenant House guys are such great helpers, setting up for the auction and being runners....they add some humor to the auction, too! ;)

The RHE (our homeschool group) Jr. Board planned a surprise graduation party for Ashley Hunter. They called it a costume party and she knew about it....she just didn't know it was a party for her! :)

 Tamara and Kayla were the decorating committee.....they did a great job. Kayla did great at organizing everything....Tamara helped where she could.

Danny went as a Pirate...

Tamara (dressed as a female Hobbit from LOTR) with her friend Anna (r) and Ashley's surprise friend, Miriam, from Atlanta.

After we surprised Ashley......she was surprised a second time by her friend from Atlanta! :)

Me (dresses as a redneck hillbilly) with my friend Elly Mae from the Beverly Hillbillies! :)

The evening ended with Karaoke.
The boys singing YMCA! :)

Our homeschool group had a 5 week Co-op art class. The most fun week was when we got to splatter paint on canvases! :)

My art! :)

Hope you enjoyed a glimpse into our lives in the past month..... :)
