On my way to work on Friday, I arrived a few minutes after an accident happened.  A semi swerved for an animal, hit the edge of the bridge and burst into flames.  I didn’t get a good picture but there were huge flames and lots of black smoke.  I was lad I was running late that day!!

We spent lots of time working on apples this weekend.  We made 5 gallons of pressed apple juice.  So very yummy!!  I made apple streusel muffins! Hoping to do more pies.  Always so much to do!

The girls are busy too doing lots of fun stuff.  Wish they would email me more photos (hint hint)

The apples are upon us.  The honey crisp are gorgeous and store worthy.  We made a delectable pie last night!

Back and Busy

Kayla made it back to school this week.  Brandon picked her up and they spent a few days in Provo with Marisa and Jared.

Marisa went with friends to a Brazilian Festival on Saturday.

I didn’t get a picture of ALaynas vball game.  Ill try to get one this week.  Tyler marched in the football game on Friday.

We were busy again this weekend with the apples.  We even made apple fruit leather which was delicious!

It’s about time…

Well, I have missed 2 weeks of blogs which is a 1st for me.  In addition to the busyness of school starting, my computer was down for a week for some cleaning and installing windows 10.  But I think I am back up and running now Smile

I can’t even express how busy life has been! Only this picture can describe the exhaustion…

School started for us.  Tyler is super busy with marching band and show choir.  ALayna is loving her French class and has started volleyball.  Last week she got 20 serves over the net!

The next night we went to the Elders quorum date night.  We played giant Jenga, the newlywed game (which we almost won!), then we taught the cha cha, and ended in a heated girl vs. boy Pictionary.  It was a fun evening, but both those nights in a row knocked me out for several days.
