Birthdays and Christmas.....

ok...so I'm not to good at this blogging thing yet,,,I was hoping that this picture would be at the end of my new blog but of course it isn't...that would be expecting to much...anyway, just picture it being the last picture and no that by now I am being sentimental about my family and now I want to thank Jodi for bringing in a great Young man into our home...and thank you Aaron for loving our daughter and making her so Happy....I I want say why you two are laughing so hard even though I know that Aaron would probably think it would be ok to say...what if I just say that Aaron got caught ....lol....
So there is so much going on in the Ferguson Home this time of year....We have lots of just hangin' around and picture taking....Of course Dale is being the photographer in this picture just so he doesn't have to be in it...lol...We do like to take pictures... and the girls like having their pictutres taken so here we are...i think we actually took about 300 pictures that day which brings me to say that I love digital camera's....I can decide what I really want to print, delete the not so good pictures, and take as many as I like...Christina turned 19 this week...Can you believe it...my baby is 19...where has the time gone....She is starting her second semester of college in a couple of weeks. Wow...we did have fun for her b-day get together. I think that for Aaron's birthday that I should get a cake with his picture on it so Christina can poke his eyeballs out...lol Remember when Chrissy had short hair because she would twist her fingers in it so tight that it would break off,,,,how about the time I kept telling her that she was going to fall in the little pond if she didn't quit jumping around it....(for those of you that don't...she did fall in)...how about the birthday party when we all went ice skating in port arthor.....man there was a bunch of u......boys,,,girls,,,always somebody coming over to be with our Chrissy....how about the time Dale mopped the floor up with her head....so many great memories and now here she is 19,,,,A beautiful Young Lady, with a great smile and a great personality to go along with it....she has brought so much joy into our lifes,,,even if she was an accident,,ooops..meant unexpected....lol...just kidding Chrissy , just had to say that before i started crying remembering you growing up...We love you and are soooo proud of who you are....

:Yep....more pictures....got Dale to take a few with the girls but not enough....we will have to do this again on Christmas and make sure Dale gets into more of them....Jodi and Christina was just having so much fun playing around and Dale was having fun being the photographer...but it will be mom's turn next time....Just look at these 3.....David and I are sooo Blessed with 3 of the Best Kids ever...are they perfect...nope...but, who is.....We are so Happy for the great health of our family and the Love in our Home.....Thank you Dale, Jodi and Christina for being who you are...

MAKING GINGERBREAD HOUSES


Ok....so they are not really Gingerbread houses...more like graham cracker houses...but you get the ideal....we get together, as many of us as possible, try to make our houses stay together,,eat lots of candy in the process, making ourselves really sick....but have loads of fun doing it all...We did this last night but tried something different this year...we learned by heating sugar in a pan that it desolves, then you can dip your graham cracker into it and acutally cement the crackers together...instantly hard and doesnt fall..Only one problem,,very hot...ask Jodi..She ended up with a couple of blisters on her fingers....I know she will blame this on Sarah but I am just wondering if her fingers wouldnt have been there would Sarah have dripped this hot sugar onto them....just wondering...anyway...Coy decideds that he wants to melt some tootsie rolls in the microwave which was ok until he takes them out and decides to pick them up...Not so good...we now have Jodi sick on the couch from eating to much..coy screaming because his fingers are burnt,,,and Kyler eating everything in sight before anyone gets a chance to decorate their houses...lol...see,,,lots of fun...lol... after Jodi and I both took medicine because of the fried chicken nuggets that we had for lunch..Sarah poured IB profin down Coy

s throat,,,within 15 minutes all was well and back on track for the decorating...we didn't have any judging going on but just so you know...I think David and I had the best house there...I'm sure others will argue the fact and I have decided not to post there pictures for farther proof...We then all walked over to Grandma's house and decorated her tree and had hoggies for supper at her place...I love the christmas season but boy was I ready for bed when all was said and done....

Peaunut Butter

so...David and I got a chance to go help the Buna Ward make Peanut Butter...we got to wear these silly blue caps, gloves, and earplugs...we sorted peanuts, put jars on the belt to be filled, put cap after cap after cap on full jars of fresh peanut butter only spilled one jar...More important we had the opportunity so socialize with fellow members of the ward...It was a great night to be had. As we were ending our shift Jodi and Aaron came in and put on there white caps, gloves, earplugs and yea I forgot about those gorgous aprons also...I took lots of pictures of everyone looking really awefull in those silly caps...lol I do love the mormon church. what other church goes through so much in order to help those in need...It did make me wonder what do other wards in different parts of the country do are make in order to help...Lindsey's friend from California says they picked grapes then spread them out to dry for raisens. My Cousin in Utah says that when she was a kid she can remember fields and fields of sugar beets that they would have to weed out and such...so yea,,,making peanut butter was awesome compared to spending hours out in a hot field of any kind to me...lol...
