2007 Was A Very Good Year
For All Of Us Klafters Living Down Here
We Bring You Good Tidings Of Every Sort
And Wanted To Give You A Progress Report.
We're Growing By Leaps, We're Growing By Bounds
We've Quite Nearly Doubled The Size Of Our Town
Jeb Is Our Sports Guy A Baller For Sure
Scoring Baskets, Snapping Footballs And More
Hitting Line Drives At 5 Year Old's Faces
Just Try Not To Ask Him To Run 'Round The Bases.
Autumn Survived Her Second Bout With The Blues
From Dinos To Bunnies In Her Dancing Shoes
She Loves To Read Books, Just Like Her Dad
But She Has A Schultz Temper So Don't Make Her Mad
Casey's In Pre-K And Doing Quite Well
Just Don't Take His Photo, AndYou'll Get Along Swell
He Loves Veggie Tales, And Jay Jay Who Flies
And He'd Love A Diet Of Oatmeal Cream Pies
Josh Is A Bruiser Who Loves To Play Sports
And Over His Diaper He Wears Undershorts
He'll Let Out A Scream Every Now and Again
If He Was In Peanuts He'd Be Pigpen.
Noah's Our Neatnik Who Likes To Be Babied
He Wants To Hear Yes, Not A No Or A Maybe
He's Clear As A Bell Always To Be Understood
If He Doesn't LIke It He'll Say "Not So Good"
Eli's Our Snuggle Bug, Cuddly And Cute
Who Loves To Be Spiderman, Web's He Will Shoot
He's Sharp As A Tack Really Quite Keen
He Renamed 7-UP, It's Now Bumpy Green
We Miss You So Much You Remain In Our Prayers
And We Wanted A Chance For Some News To Share
We Love You As Surely As Our Lord Is Living
And Wanted To Wish You A Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Halloween!!!!

Trick or Treat

The kids had a really good time trick or treating last night. They all got too much candy, but had tons of fun. As you can see, they were Hershey Kisses (thanks to Mammy). Jeb was an Almond, Autumn was a Dark, Casey was a Caramel, Josh was a Hug, Noah was an Almond, and Eli was a regular Kiss.

Summer Activities

We have had a busy summer. This is a "swim party" at my cousin Robyn's house after VBS one day. As you can see, everyone is having a good time.

Geoff and I took our boys to their first Major League baseball game this summer. Thanks to someone Geoff works with, we were able to go see the Texas Rangers. The boys had a great time and they had a huge fireworks display after the game.

The middle of August, Geoff and I went to Houston for the Texas Home School Convention. I think everyone had a good time and learned even more. We were able to take the boys to the Houston Zoo one day we were there. We all got in free, because we are members of the Abilene Zoo which is an AZA zoo. We have been able to get into free or pay 50% all over the country. It is a very good value, the family membership only cost $35.
