Baptism Day

Last weekend we were blessed to be apart of Mr. Drew's baptism day!

Drew's mommy has been my buddy, well since I was born:) It is such an honor to be Drew's godparents. Bill and I think he is about as cute as cute can be and we are both so very thankful to have the Olson family in our lives!

Garden Time

After the hail storm and the accidental crop spraying incident, Becky and Dale finally have their awesome gardens back this year.

Here are the grape vines.

A berry patch area.

The boys had fun on their bikes while we were checking out the gardens.

Carter thought the electrical fence was pretty darn cool. 

 Morgan and Lissa had fun walking out on the road.

There are actually several pumpkins ready too!

There are many varieties of pumpkins, squash, melons, okra, potatoes and much much more!

Here are the sand cherries, cabbage and I believe lettuce.

It is hard to see but the dill is in this area. I would have gotten closer but there were snakes back there when I was growing up. Even though there supposably hasn't been one in years, it could happen!

Tomatoes!

First Day of School 2012

We started school August 20th this year. Brendan is a 3rd grader in Mrs. Dumas's class and Carter is a 1st grader in Mrs. Hick's class. I am still in 5th grade:) It is still fun to see my nephews at school each day. Brendan is getting quite tall and Carter is as rambunctious as ever!

Pickled Bean Fun

Gus, Bill and I headed to the farm for some pickling fun last night ! Here we are pickling the beans.

She really likes me

Little Miss Morgan is a little choosy on who she allows to hang with her. This picture is proof that she really does like me!

Fishing and Fun

I spent the past several days at Lake Sallie and enjoyed time with the family and some quiet time with myself. Gus, Sandy and Bill came down on Saturday to hang out. Grandma Becky got an extra bed buddy during the night, she was so pleased that Gus could snuggle in with her. It was, after all, chilly on Saturday night!

Lissa and Dustin were down with the kids and it was fun to have them there. We swam, fished, ate awesome food, danced, I got some good reading time in and all in all had a nice time.
