Boys cat have babies...
Okay, story time. Grab yourself a cup of cocoa, coffee or tea and pull up a chair.
Today was the day that I took my kittens, Oliver and Gabby into the vets to be neutered and spayed. My morning was pretty busy for I had to be there by 7:30am and then to Taylor's dentist appointment right afterwards.
Over the last month we had been talking about "fixing" the kittens, and of course the joke was always regarding "poor Oliver." LOL Yes, he was no longer going to be my "boy kitten". Anyways, since I know how well they LOVE their kitten kennel, I decided to pull it out last night and put it on the floor in the frontroom to check out, and of course praying that they would both fit in it. Of course Gabby ran to our room so fast, all we seen was a flash. Nope, not Oliver. He walked right over and got in. Sniffed around and decided, not to bad...I am going to lay down in here. After a bit Gabby game out and started checking out the kennel. It must be okay, for her brother got in it. So a little relief there for the morning knowing that I had to stuff both kittens into one kennel. (NO, I totally forgot to get another kennel besides that, "A month ago, they fit just fine!" LOL)
Morning comes, I pull the kennel out of my room, and Oliver came running and got right in. I called Gabby and she came running. Much to her despair. She came to the kennel, and I gave her a slight nudge and in she went. So far so good. The kids are always putting them in boxes, so they were tolerant to being confined for the time being.
Into the car we go. Boy did Oliver cry all the way there. I told my brother today that he "wined" all the way to the vets and he says, "Well, I bet, poor kitty!" LOL
To move on through the story, the kittens were dropped off and across the tressle Taylor and I go.
"Mom, why did we leave them there? I thought they were just getting shots. "
"Taylor, remember, I told you they we getting fixed."
"What does that mean, get fix?"
"I thought we had talked about this Taylor. It is when the vets make it so that they can't have babies."
"Then why are we getting Oliver fixed then? Only Gabby is the girl."
"Because both can make babies...."
It was quiet for a few loooonnnnggggg....... moments.... ugh.... what is coming next.
"Mom, only girls have babies in their tummys. This sooooo doesn't make any sense."
"Taylor, when dad gets home tonight, why don't you have him explain to you a little better."
Silence in the back seat.....
"I get it!!!!!! It takes two to make a baby!!" Taylor states as proud as can be....
"Taylor, daddy would love to talk about this with you tonight if you have any more questions...."
Thank goodnes, the dentist office!!!!

Taylor plays Monopoly!
On a Friday night a week ago, the family sat down for the game of Monopoly. Within the first 2 hours Bobby and Kyleann had enough of the game, so Bob, Taylor and I continued moving forward. Bob and I watched in such amazement as Taylor continued to play up into the 5th hour. Oh my goodness..... The attention of this kid at 10:30 at night was amazing. We had so much fun and are excited to play again soon!

Pumpkin Patch
Went to the Farm in Snohomish last weekend to get our pumpkins and go through the Corn Maze! We try to make a tradition to go together with the Boober's every year to get pumpkins and then in December we go tree hunting for Christmas. We always have a great time together!!
Katie & Kyleann
Katie loves to get piggy back rides by Kyleann. We went to the Farm last week in Snohomish and picked out our pumpkins and some of the kids went to the Washington State maze. We had a blast.

Happy Fall!
Well the sun is out today, but it sure is cold. I love this time of the year with the colors of the leaves changing adding a different sense of mood in the air. As Bob and I walked our property on Saturday night, we still walk in awe as we look at the wonderful land God blessed us with. It is so very peaceful and serene. With Fall in the air, this is even more abundant with the crispness of the air and the breeze that brushes against our face and through our hair. When you get an opportunity, walk outdoors, pick up leaves, put your head back and let God do the rest! It is so peaceful! Enjoy!

SCHOOL & KIDS UPDATE!
A full week has gone by and the kids seem to be adjusting quite well. Bobby is at the Freshman campus in Snohomish and decided to join FFA. It is a leadership program. It will be very good for him. They do lots of events!
Kyleann is loving the middle school. There hasn't seemed to have been much adjustment for her. She was defiantly ready. Seattle Children's started up on Tuesday night for Kyleann. It is nice to be back into a schedule, but sometimes I miss the laxed summer days.
Taylor started with the attitude of dreading school starting. Luckily he found out that one of his friends from his last year's class was in this years class and he has been doing quite well. Good job Taylor!

Flowing Lake!
We went to Flowing Lake last night with the kids! We all had a blast, but the kids were the most excited because of being able to jump off the boat in the middle of the lake. That doesn't happen very often because of traffic on the lake. It was very quiet on Flowing Lake last night.
