Trivia Tuesday!!!

The answer to last week's trivia is------

10 moves!!
Dad grew up about 15 minutes from where we now live, and Mom grew up on Long-Island. After they married they settled into their first house in Topeka, KS.

House #1, Their first house was in Topeka, KS. Mom is about 13 months pregnant with Rebecca in that picture..........okay, not quite..........:)

House #2, and a cozy little aparment in Topeka, KS.

Cute little Rebecca became a big sister!!

House #3 was Dad and Mom's final house in Topeka.

House #4, brought the family East-- to Gatlinburg Tennesse!!

House #5, nestled up in the moutains in Pigeon Forge Tennesse!!

House #6, in Raleigh/Durham North-Carolina!!

House #7, brought the family to Mars, Pennsylvania, where the arrival of baby Seth made 5.

House #8, was also in Mars, Pennsylvania--- and Esther joined the family!

House #9, was in Pitsburgh Pennsylvania. When Noah was three weeks old, the family packed up and made the several-hundred mile move to our 10th house. Rebecca had just turned 9, and was moving into her 10th house!!

We moved out West to be near Dad's folks. Out to the old Poppe homestead, where Dad's Grandma had lived as a little girl. Mom was a city girl ,born and bred, and it was no small adjustment getting used to living in the country. (And those of you who have been out to our place know that you can just about see the end of the earth from our front porch-- it's way out in the sticks!!)
But what a great place to raise a family!!

Over the years our house has changed face more than once--inside and out!! Grandma has added siding, re-shingled, remodeled the back-porch, replaced the siding after a gigantic storm, replaced the shingles with tin, remodeled the kitchen and bathroom, painted, trimmed, etc.......And of course the inside of the house changes constantly because we have a Mommy who loves to re-arrange her furniture!!!

We're grateful for the where the Lord has placed us here in our corner of Kansas.

After 18 years here, the whole farm echoes with many precious memories from through the years.

And the new trivia is...............

A special tradition in our family is that on your birthday, the birthday boy/girl is allowed to choose the menu. Through the years there has been a variety of favorites, and yet there are a few dishes that have been requested on at least one birthday a year for years.

So the trivia is--

"What birthday meals/treats have been the most-requested?"

(Special permission is hereby issued for Andrew and Scott to enter their guesses, if they so choose. But bribing your sweet wives for clues is not permitted. ---smile---)

So, let the guessing begin-- and good job to those who guessed accurately last week!
