That Darn Nobody


Here are a couple of picture that I liked. I especially like the picture of Keturah "presenting" our Christmas tree. Isn't it beautiful?

This week we received a package from our long-time friends the Austenfelds. What a great treat for the kids. There was poptarts, top ramen, beef jurkey, and some instant oat meal. As soon as they saw the goodies, they grabbed, ran, and stashed. They've learned over the years, and especially since we got here, that it is a good thing to stash stuff away for later use otherwise it'll disappear very quickly. They have also learned that it is important to find a secure place to hide their stuff otherwise "Nobody" comes and takes it.

Speaking of Nobody. I thought we left him and his friends "Somebody" and "Anybody" back in the States but I was wrong. Somehow they not only made their way across the Atlantic they managed to sneak into France without visas.

Soon, I am sure these guys will start going by their French names.

Hope you all have a great week.

Ah Vanna, uh I mean Keturah, are all the packages going to fit under there?
We're sending our package tomorrow (Monday), but no peaking until Christmas!! You can actually open the box itself, but no peaking at the gifts!

There must be a nobody somewhere who has been existing on something gleaned from someone who usually ends up not knowing a thing about it! Oh well, I tried to solve the puzzle, that's just never been my thing.
The token Christmas tree is cute, but someone needs to go up into the Alps and glean a tree...where is Charlie Brown when we really need him?
LOL

Hey. We have those guys over here too. What do they take the red eye to Fargo every night and then back to France?

Okay, those guys must be cloned because they are here in Mt. Vernon too!!! Although Britt believes that she is "Somebody" because every time I say "will someone...." She is the only one that moves... Apparently the rest of the kids think her name is "Somebody" as well!

Love you all! :-)
