[Absence...just maybe]

Truly, honestly, we have not forgotten this blog... Although it may seem as though we have, I can assure you, we have not. But I [can] say this for us, we have had a lot of fun since the last time I posted. Needless to say, I am going to work on posting more often. But there are a few glitches to that... You see, our computer's have this problem; they do not have enough space to suit this Yoder Family, and, therefore, we cannot put as many pictures on them as we would like. BUT, I can promise you, there will be another post within the next few month's. I cannot guarantee when.... Don't forget about us!

Until next time,
-us-

::Game Time::

Can you guess where we are? Brownie points for the one who does!

Ok; here's a couple hints.....

Most people think they are rather creepy.....

And most people usually try to stay away from them....

And others.....well, I guess you could say they 'jump for joy'....

Nah..... :D

Please leave a comment and see if you can guess....

Thanks

::More Than Meets The Eye::

few days ago Alyssa and I had the opportunity to look thru the eye of a macro lens....*heart flutters* One word.... *amazing*!!!

These aren't things you get to see on an everyday basis...Seriously, who would think to make

life so beautiful? I think we need to look thru the eye of a macro lens more often. 'This' is the 'amazing' work of God.

Who would have thought to put a 'Turtle' inside a flower?

Who would have thought to put so much 'color' and detail into one little object?

And what about a 'Dragon/sting ray thing' inside a puny little burst of shape?

Or little flowers your eye could not even clearly see 'inside' another flower?

Who would have thought to have put pin-stripe 'vanes' on petals?

And who would have thought to coat a tiny work of art with 'velvet' ?

I can tell you this, not me!

On the Winter Jam 2010! (and a new color for the blog text:)

*winteryness*

I think we scared all the birds away...

No joke here...

It seemed like we were in snow up to our waists...

My boots were covered in snow...

(these last 2 pictures were taken while alyssa's camera lens was fogged up)

Thus would be:

The official sign of winter.

How can something so simple...

...Turn into something so messy???

So at 9:00 tonight, I suddenly had a massive craving for chocolate chip pie...

Thinking 'Oh, this should be a simple task! No problem at all!'

Well, I guess I forgot how simple tasks for people with blonde hearts {like me}

can turn into something quite complicated...

So I started here:

Looks pretty right, right? I mean, after all, I've got one egg already in the mix and the other ones are sitting safely on the counter calling my attention...

But then I get here:

Just a slight turn of my head... and it all fell to the ground. Literally!

But then, somehow it got here:

Double the fun huh? While I knelt to the ground to 'clean up on isle 12', my 2nd oh so 'once perfect egg' fell to the ground. What a shame. (not to mention my pie crusts somehow formed together and I had to re-shape and put it back together..ha)

And finally I made it here:

A beautiful batch of my craving...chocolate chip pie.

Yum!

Oh, and by the way:

You can never have to much vanilla!!!

Thank you for joining me on this wonderful experience...

It was a tasty one! Off to fetch the pies!

Guess What?

So Me and My wontrifical friend...

Along with our fabulous chauffeur...

And of course our amazing photographer...

And her trusty side kick...

Took a little 5 hour adventure to get...

My adorable new pup...

Selah Bri!!!

Although she has her ornery moments...

Sometimes you just can't resist her cuteness!

She is loving the snow and I am loving playing with her!

[Oh The Days Of Fall]

This past month or two we carved pumpkins for the first time. Or atleast us

three youngest... We had a great time. Here is some of what went on:

(The pictures look a little odd due to the fact that alyssa shoots in RAW and not jpeg...For those of you who have no clue what i'm talking about, it basically means the way she has too convert the pictures to make them look better :-)

This is Alyssa's idea of a crative pumpkin. And if I say so myself, IT IS!

Mine, however, was quite a challenge. :) But it turned out pretty nice.

Lincolns aproach was quite entertaining! That's one way to get it done!

Cameron's favorite part was de-seeding the pumpkin....Or not:-)

Finished product.

Today's real story;

So here is today's real story.....

Monday we went to dubuque (all except Alyssa that is. She is back in CO) and stayed there while dad had his meeting and Today we came home cause I had Piano lessons at 1:00 and then mom and I hung around waiting and decided to just come over here to church to drop me off cause mom had to go home to mow since we have this uber fantastic sunny forecast that is headed our way....hm hm huh. CHOKE:-D So I was dropped off for voice lessons which have not arrived yet so I'm killing time on the computer getting beat by the all to smart computer at CHESS! Can you believe that! Ok, so maybe not......chess was never my thing. Sorry to bore ya'll so dearly. Tonight I teach awana cubbies after voice. NOW...

The REAL story.....

Well, there isn't one.

I hope you enjoyed my totally rockin' awsome, uber fantastic, amazing right up.

Hopefully I'll get some pictures up soon. Until then, cocka-doodle-doo.

A thought from me for you...

DANCE~like no one's watching

LIVE~Like Heaven begins tomorrow.

::MOLLIE KATHLEEN GOLD MINE, CO::

around last week we were in CO for a week. We (All except dad) took Alyssa out to
