Hayrides, Auditions,Pumpkins and Offensive tackle



Pumpkins Ready!
It is Monday October 17, 2011.  The weekend was the epitome of Fall in New England with hot chocolate morning football games.  Mums and pumpkin flavored everything. Leaves of all colors and a wind blowing to add a chill...but a warm sun to toast your cheeks.
Pumpkins growing....


I only watch but I have a great time....



Nurse Marques came out to watch the game..Sarah in the background drinking hot chocolate




Other disabled special forces friends wait for a HayRide...

"Lean On Me..."

Hold on its gonna get rough!

Whats Fall without Mums?  Wish I had some too...  :(




Our Cheering Section... Dave, Daniel, Sarah, Me...John and Marques,

Cheerleaders












My expression is for the gross MUDDY SWAMPY part of the ride
Thomas had his football game...  and then I took the kids along with our New Nurse DAVE...  to Paproski's Farm for an old fashioned bumpy muddy hay bale under your butt hayride.


Pumpkin Launcher
Daniel was hard to hold this year with his crooked spine it was all I could do to keep him in a good position.


There will  be a time when I can no longer do these types of things.  I think about the spinal surgery often..and wonder how long it will be until he is so crooked that he needs surgery.  


Sarah... ..auditioned this weekend for a Production of Oliver.  She is so talented, and I do try to spread myself out to try to get everyone what they need.


I saw some amazing clouds this morning that looked like Angels.


I prayed that God would provide for our needs...because they are many.  And I live in fear, fear for Daniel's health, fear for security...  but the realization comes that there is no security.  So I tell myself...put aside those piles and laugh.  Sing.  Look at the beauty.  Giggle and tickle and share joy.


There are people in my life who do not exhibit joy. Or gratitude...  So I pray for them.  


Anyhow...  my priority is keeping my house intact, keeping Daniel safe and warm and doing everything I possibly can for all three of my children.  


The biggest question remains...  What will they be for Halloween.....

(If anyone would like to Donate on Daniels behalf there is a paypal button on this blog)   we would be very grateful  :)
