Thursday, August 21, 2014. Applesauce, 2013 version. Every year, I think, "no, we are not going to mess with all the work of making applesauce this year." And every year when apple time comes around I change my mind! And really, once you have homemade applesace, it is impossible to go back to the jar stuff.) This year we did scale it back quite a bit because the 3 bushels that we did last year was a bit much, not only for processing, but we still had quarts in the freezer from that batch! What I Did Yest...

Sunday, January 26, 2014. Fun friday, 1.24.14. Today's Fun Friday post is brought to you by the letters C, a, r, s, t, e and n! One of Carsten's goals when he turned 5 was to learn to write his name. Before this he would attempt, but get frustrated and not be interested in all at sitting down to learn how. But now he is 5, and it was a big deal to him. (friends in Sunday School all write their own name on their papers! And then he pointed at the screen and said: "HOW ABOUT A BALLOON FROM THE DOLLAR STORE?

Monday, August 18, 2014. Steve and Henry get the privilege of both celebrating their birthdays in November, right away, within 5 days of each other. So lots of birthday celebrating for us right away in November! Henry gets to steal the show being that he showed up before his dadda's birthday. And also because he turned 2, and when you are 2 you pretty much steal the show anywhere! Socks (need), a fleece that matched his brothers' (wear), and Gladys Goes Out to Lunch (read). Happy Birthday big boy! Of whi...

Friday, February 14, 2014. Happy valentine's day 2014. So the night before Valentine's Day, around 11pm while we were watching Olympics, Steve looked at me and said "I have nothing for you for tomorrow." I honestly wondered "why? For a second before I remembered about Valentine's Day and had to admit to him "Oh, I am so sorry honey, I didn't even think. About getting you anything for tomorrow! So commenced another year of crazy homemade valentine's. This year the big three all wanted different cards ...

http://bruinblogger.blogspot.com/2014/08/fall-soccer-2013.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Just a few things about how I coach:. 1 We will have fun working on individual skills as well as learning about tactics of the "beautiful" game. They'll learn proper foot skills, passing, shooting, defense, give and go, etc. 2 Everyone will play, and I will play the kids at every position, unless they don't want to play goalie. 4 We'll demonstrate good sportsmanship, and try to help the kids understand how glorifying God on the soccer. Another great friendship started too!

Thursday, August 7, 2014. Happy birth day liam! At 11 pm on September 16, 2013, I got a call from my brother Lucas.I was an auntie! Liam Koert was born at 10:09 pm.

He is a beautiful baby boy, and Momma and Dadda are doing great! Liam at the hospital. 1st day of school.

Sunday, August 24, 2014. 2013 Roskamp Thanksgiving was a triple threat (which means this will be a long post =)! We were ready for a roadtrip! Aaaaaaand then Grace got sick on Tuesday. And continued to be sick through Wednesday afternoon. So obviously since we didn't want to bring that sick to anyone, we decided to stay home from Thanksgiving, and when Grace was feeling better, if no one else was sick, we could still go for Liam's baptism. Thursday morning no one else was sick yet (yay! And brought them ...
