Fishing, St. Jerome and St. Francis

This past week Poppy decided he wanted to expand his pier and add two benches.  We don't know how he knows how to build everything, but he apparently can build anything (and without help at that!).  He's built sheds, barns, fences, and piers by himself with not one person to help.  We love our new pier- thank you Poppy! 




Look at those fancy posts-


Friday I had a routine doctor's appointment and the children stayed at the farm for the morning.  They loved fishing!




Saturday Marky had two flag football games in a row.  His fan section hung in there.  

Last week we had so many saints to learn about- including St. Jerome  (who translated the Hebrew/Greek Bible into Latin) on September 30th and St. Francis of Assisi on October 3rd.
  

We read several books with stories of St. Francis- blurry pics- sorry!





And we made these little "wolf paw cookies" to remember the story about St. Francis taming the wolf that was terrorizing the town of Gubbio
