More land....
Shawn and I signed a purchase agreement to buy "Julie's" land next door. So, we will have an additional 32 acres attached to ours. She has 30 days to remove her belongings and then we will be closing on the house on or around January 15th. I'm very excited. We will have more pasture land and need to get more goats - Shawn says cattle - or sheep. We may end up putting a new sewer in and building a house of some sort to rent out - We will see. The possibilities will be endless - once we really do own it. The current owner said that she already considers it ours but we have to wait for Julie to move her stuff out.
HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

Hi,
Mauri and I had a great time in Arizona with Paul, Kendra and family. The light show was alot of fun for everyone. The kids are so much fun, even though they like Aunt Mauri better than thier Uncle Dan. Oh well. We also visited with Mauri's parents and her Grandmother, who live there year-round. It was cold most days, and rainy, but better than the weather we left. Happy Holidays to all and to all a good night.

Finally feeling like Christmas!
We have finally began slowly putting up decorations. Our house has been a mess the last few weeks, from putting up our bedroom wall again. So now that the living room was finished getting painted I put up our few decorations. Emalee picked out that Santa from Frys and the snowman drew picked out from target. Caitlyn will not leave the little bells on the tree and it is a fight to keep them from the other kids as well!

Happy Thanksgiving
Thursday, October 25, 2007
What is everyone doing for Christmas? You are all welcome to come here, it would be a Xmas to remember as the saying goes. Plan on it in fact for Xmas 2008, we'll go on a hayride in the desert before a scrumptious meal of javelina, turducken, and ham with potatoes. P.L P.S. everything well done of course.

My moose
The other Saturday, Shawn came running in the house and said there was a moose. Here is our moose which was named: "Honk, the moose". The fence posts are the end of our land and she was coming out toward Julie's house. Anyway, she turned around and went back in the woods. We had some kids up hunting and one of them said that he saw the moose in our woods. I'm hoping she stays around, but will most likely move on....

October Camping
This is our camping trip, sort of cold, about 55 for a high. This is on the Mogollon Rim, in Bear Canyon area, the back side is primitive camping. We took a stick thru the trailer tire on the way in, but this is to be expected when four wheeling . Saw some mule deer and assorted small wildlife which Tinker scared off. Our next camping trip will hopefully be to Karchner Caverns outside of Tucson AZ, this winter. Our combined rig is 43 feet long, but flexible, so I can get it most anywhere. Oh yeah, showering feels great when camping, .....rootbeer floats are nice to!!!!!! P.L.

Camping
This past weekend we went camping with our trailer and it was super nice! The weekend was fun, but it poured buckets all night saturday night! It sprinkled off and on saturday but we figured it would quit. but it never did it just got harder as the night went on. So needless to say we had 13 people sleeping in our trailer. Quite the experience for us. Now paul says we are ready for any condition! It poured, super windy and even had some hail!! So we left right away sunday morning, packed up in the rain, and headed home. It is supposed to only be be a 3 1/2 hour drive, but the main highway off the rim back to town was completely shut down because a tanker exploded, so we went a round about way to the other main freeway and that was completely backed up because a fatality. So we moved about a mile every half hour!! So that drive turned into an 8 hour trip!! oh well we had fun anyways even with bad weather and bad traffic!
thats it for now

Life at our house
Sorry that I haven't posted in a while. Life here has been busy.
Shawn is busy with work. He puts in a day at one job site, comes home for 10 minutes and off to the next job site until 9PM or later. It's busy trying to get all the jobs he has to do done.
Over Labor Day weekend, I went to Seattle - Shawn stayed home and worked. My nephew Eric got married. I was able to see some sights and am anxious to get back there again. I got in Thursday night, the wedding was Friday night and left early Monday AM. Did a lot in the short amount of time we were there.
Got to see the water:
Took the ferry to Whidby Island - it's gorgeous!

Went to Deception Pass in order to try conquer my fear of heights. Didn't work, but it was awesome!
the newlyweds: Eric and Rosella
I have been busy with the volunteering stuff I've been doing for Horizons and the Kaleva Ladies. At night, I obsess about coyotes. We had a coyote get one of my baby goats (born the beginning of August) and one of our geese. I'm obsessed with trying to find it again to shoot it. Haven't been able to yet. It is rainy or foggy every night. I know it will be back again :(

Did a day trip down to the cities last Sunday for Eric and Rosie's MN reception. Didn't get to visit anyone as it was strictly there and back. I have to head down to Farmington next weekend for Missi's bridal shower - Ivan's fiancee. Then October 13th, we will be down in the cities for the weekend - my brother Ivan gets married on Saturday and there will be a 70th birthday party for my dad on Sunday. Hope to see some of you as well.
We have a new tenant at our house - my niece Denise moved in. She is going to school in Duluth for dental assistant. She is also working, but mostly days so she is home most evenings. It's interesting trying to get used to having someone live with us again. She is a lot of fun!
That's it from our "neck of the woods".

Helloooooo!!!!!
Does anybody look at this anymore???? I got the password and all and now nobody puts any news on here. Just to let you know, Mauri is fine, Dan is fine, Jay is fine, and Jim is fine. The cats are also fine. We went to Mark and Pam's cabin last weekend and went 4 wheelin', which is fun, but my old body gets mighty sore from riding. Hope everybody is ok.
Love to all,
Dan and Mauri
Love to all,

Mark, I think there is a way in internet tools/options that you can change the cookie setting to allow cookies for certain sites. You should try to figure it out so we can hear from you guys! It was fun having Katie here for the week, and the kids just loved her! I told her she can come back anytime!
Heather have fun in seattle!
well kids are hollering so gotta go!
kendra
Here is some pictures I took of the kids, trying out my new lights. Still need a little working on to get the settings right!
