Corn maze with the littles🌽

 Jonathan and I took our 2 littles to the corn maze and pumpkin patch and then out to get pizza. 🍕 🌽 

We had fun with just them. (The oldest 4 were too cool and had other things to do besides hang out with their parents and little sister and brother😜)

It’s been a tradition to go to Willis Farm every fall. This was the first year that we all didn’t go together..😢 I love and also hate my children growing up..

I didn’t take very many pictures and I am sad that I didn’t. But also, I was too busy enjoying time with my little loves.🧡💛🤎

I’m a bad sport…

 Hi, I am Rachel and I am too competitive. I don’t like to lose, I love a good game of competition and I may, or may not, say things that I may, or may not, regret,  if one of our teams loses…

I want to say that I am a mild-tempered woman. Buuuuut…I also am not a liar.😂

The whole “redheads are fiery and mean” saying….is, hmm…probably a little true.😂 but, I would change the saying to “redheads are fiery and passionate!” Because I am just a passionate person in all that I do. I love deeply and believe strongly in things that are important to me. God and my family are 2 of the most important things to me…Fun fact, redheads are different than normal people they tell me…you can look up facts about redheads online. (Hopefully it makes you like us more-not less!❤️)

Soooooo, when my family is involved in certain activities, I am passionate because of love! Ok, I have to remind myself I am not a liar. What I said is partially true, but I really, REALLY hate losing… We lost an important game last Friday. 

I love that Jonathan coaches our son in football. I am so proud of both of them. I just needed to admit that I have a problem and may have said some things I shouldn’t have, aaaaaannnnnnndddd, I am not sorry about it!🤣😂

One of these pictures of me is right after the game we lost. I’ll let you guess which one it is. 😂🤣🤬 

My handsome husband in the shorts.. I love the coach!! And my handsome son as a captain..#4 is my favorite!!

Proud Mama!

 I am so proud of my 3 children that I am homeschooling this year. They (including myself) have worked extremely hard! It has been…mostly good…😂 teaching them. 

They have rewards for being well behaved and working hard. They have earned their 25 hard working/no complaining reward of going to lunch and getting ice cream 🍦. I sure am proud of them and am proud of myself for not getting Grey hair while teaching all three.😂(Avery is also with us because we love her too💕)

This Mom job is pretty good if I don’t say so myself. I am very blessed and love each and everyone of my children.❤️❤️

It definitely was the perfect day to have lunch and walk home in the sunshine! Since being home, it has been rainy and a little dreary. The cold days were making me miss that Israeli and Egyptian sun ☀️.  So I was grateful to wake up with the happy sunshine and it felt wonderful on my skin!! I love to see the trees turn yellow. It is a beautiful time of year.

I was glad to see my flowers survived in my front yard while I was gone. They are barely hanging on as the nights are getting cold. The last of their life is showing… until next year. They are starting to die and it makes me a little sad. I will miss the beautiful colors throughout the winter. ❄️ But today, I will just enjoy the beauty of my family and my life.🌸☀️💕

Home after 20 days!
