FINALLY Finished!!!!!

Natasha sold her townhouse on November 3rd. Keith and Natasha have been moving her things out for the past 2 weeks. This weekend was the final weekend before settlement on Tuesday, so Natasha and Keith wanted to make sure that everything was complete by Sunday evening. The move has went rather smooth UNTIL this weekend......one word sums it all up....."travesty". Keith and Natasha had everything all planned out, where her leather couch was going to go, what was going to The Goodwill, yatta yatta. Well, the couch gets loaded onto the truck and taken to Keith's, where it was SUPPOSED to go into the office. Needless to say, the couch wouldn't fit up the stairs (even with the railings off). The couch was taken back outside and loaded onto the truck and taken to the storage unit. The couch barely fit into the storage unit and ended up with LOTS of cuts and bruises along the way. Natasha was upset to say the least, so of course she was running her mouth about the couch not fitting up the stairs, not fitting well in the storage unit, how it was ruined.....the list goes on. In the midst of this, Keith and Natasha are having words ~ yep, not good because the stress level was through the roof, only because they had just talked about what a perfect size storage unit they had gotten for her things UNTIL the couch episode. Then to top the evening off on Saturday night, Natasha stepped in dog sh*t, which added more wood to the raging fire. But, at the end of the night Keith and Natasha ended up making up, even though the couch is RUINED. Sunday was chaotic for the both of them. They spent most of the day cleaning Natasha's house and consolidating into one house. Natasha had a tearful departure at her old house, but in the end she would never look back because she is moving on to bigger/better things and a wonderful future with the person she loves more than anything in this world......Keith Holt. And finally, Keith, thank you so much for all the work that you have done.....Natasha couldn't have done it without you!!!! After all the chaos, tears, scrapes, and bruises......the house is finished and settlement is Tuesday!!!!

Toothless in Wooster

Jackson lost another tooth tonight! First one on the top. The other top front one will be next and he'll be singing the song "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!"

Mr. Basketball

Jackson had his second basketball game today! He's really doing good & having lots of fun!

Brrrr.....SNOW

November 17 - Thursday. It is SNOWING and it is COLD! We have not had any accumulation in Wayne County, however, in the snow belt area and the east side of Cleveland, they are getting buried. Hopefully, we will get another nice day so we can finish putting up the Christmas decorations outside. With Thanksgiving just a week away if anyone has a special request for a dish they would like to have for dinner, you better get it to me ASAP.

Trip to Oregon!

I visited Oregon Aero in Scapoosse Oregon this week. I stayed at a wonderful bed & breakfast. We fed the Llamas one morning after breakfast and had a beautiful view of Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helen's.

A Busy Day!

This evening we went to the Smithville playoff football game. They lost...but we all had a great time! All the boys crashed on the couch when we got home! I should be the one who is crashed, I raked leaves all afternoon! Owen pointed out that we had "Oak Leaves" in our yard....and lots of them!

Halloween in Maryland

Keith and Natasha had a great Halloween weekend. It all started on Friday night when they went to a Corn Maze with some friends. Natasha kept telling Keith's friends what they were about to experience and how entertaining it was going to be! Needless to say, all of the laughs were on Natasha the whole night. The Maze was extremely muddy and Natasha nearly went face first into the mud because she walked out of her tennis shoes. Keith was laughing so hard while holding her up by her belt loop. Yes, it was indeed very comical! If they would have had a video camera, they would have been millonaires by sending the clip into America's Funniest Home Videos. On Saturday Keith and Natasha went to The Pumpkin Patch to take a Hayride into a very large field of pumpkins. They found the perfect pumpkins and headed home to relax and clean their gear from the night before. I think Natasha was still finding mud in places she never imagined!! On Sunday they decided to carve the pumpkins. Natasha carved a cat into her pumpkin and Keith carved a bat, surprisingly he didn't carve Piper's face onto his pumpkin!!!
