Sibiling love!


We love our baby sister!





The girls ; )




Liah...briefly on her belly before she rolled right over!



Hello!



WOW! SNOW!!

Zach's Thanksgiving Play


Zach was "Miles Standish" in his Thanksgiving play at school. He did an excellent job! It was great to see that "they" have not succeded in completely removing God from school! It was not a secular version...they prayed and gave thanks to God.



No, Zach is not being burned at the stake!




Elli with her star brother!

Veteran's Day

Nathaniel was given the opportunity to wear a hat or shirt from a uniform for Veteran's Day at school. So he wore his Daddy's hat and Navy uniform shirt. He was very proud!

Zach got to do it last year, but wanted to have his picture taken in it again this year.

Then Elli wanted to get in on the act too, so she put on Daddy's USS JOSEPHUS DANIELS hat!

Cousins!

The Corbett cousins came to play!!

The play room!

New Addition!


Our nephew arrived safely with God's provision into his Daddy's arms! Welcome to the family little Justus! We love the meaning of your name, "defender of Justice." Elli's praying you'll be good friends with Liah like she and Sam are! : )

Beautiful Fall Day!


It was warm and sunny after church one Sunday and I wanted to capture the neighbor's gorgeous tree in some pictures! I had some very willing subjects as volunteers! I'm glad I did it that day... the next Sunday was cold enough to snow!! The beautiful fall is one reason I love living in western PA~ God's artistry at work!



Showing a little personality here!




Liah too!! : )

Literary Day


I KNOW, I KNOW, I'm WAY behind!

The kids had to pick a character from a book to be for Literary Day at school. Kaity was Susan from Narnia, Zach was a pirate from His Great Warrior, Nathaniel was Nate from Nate the Great, Elli was dressed as a Renaissance princess and Liah was a flower one day and an angel another day. Nathaniel also dressed as a knight for Trick or Treat night at the outlet mall.

Camping...

We went to Cook's Forest last weekend to camp with Grandma and Papa Corbett! This is the cabin we stayed in. Uncle Sean and Beth were there too. We spent lots of time outside enjoying God's creation! Fall is so beautiful!


Papa and the kids on a hike...they all found hiking sticks and thankfully, Papa was able to find room in his vehicle to bring them home! Thanks, Papa!! ; )



Pennsylvania's beautiful fall foliage! (The picture doesn't do it justice!)


Ready for lunch! Western Style sandwiches, YUM!!




Some fun on the playground with Caleb and Colby.





Grandma and Liah watching the kids play.



Kaity taking Liah for her first slide!



Then it was Elli's turn.: )



Daddy splitting logs for the fire.



Liah all bundled for the night walk.


Grandma and Kaity on the night walk.



Liah's basin bath!



MMMMmmmm! Mountain pies!!! and Grandma's homemade applesauce! YUMMY!!


Zach and Thaniel ready for a hike.


Learnin' to skip rocks!

All in all everyone had a good time. We were sad Daddy had to leave early to go back to work. And we only stayed 2 nights much to the children's chagrin! But Mommy couldn't do another night with Liah not sleeping anywhere but her arms! Thanks Grandma and Papa for your hospitality once again! We love you!!!


I can't forget to include a picture of the "fort" the kids made with tree branches behind the cabin. Tag and hide 'n seek were the games of the weekend!

Just some fun pictures of the kids

Thaniel and Liah



Kidz Mission Impact kids! Kaity, Zach and Thaniel spent several hours at the church a couple Saturdays ago learning more about missions and what missionaries do along with other kids from area Alliance churches. They had a LOT of fun! Thanks Miss Kelly!



This is the really cool little boys bathroom! All decked out in CARS stuff! (NO, I didn't go in the bathroom to take the picture...this is from outside the door!)



SOCCER SISTERS!



Little sisters! (Aren't they so sweet?)

Tryin' new things...

ALLIYAH
She's trying lots of new things this week!The door bouncer! (She hasn't reached her potential in that activity yet!)


The Exersaucer! No, we don't have a fancy, fangled one. Just the early run-0f-the-mill type. She doesn't seem to mind! More room for more toys to throw off of the tray!
THIS THING IS A BLAST!!!
She's already figured out how to turn herself 360 degrees in it!



CEREAL!! RICE CEREAL!! Let's just say, she LOVES it! I could hardly scoop it up fast enough for her tonight! (Doesn't she look like such a big girl in the high chair? Stop growing so fast, girl!)
