Crazilee...
Last night for FHE we made peach jam...considering our peach tree decided it was done taking care of them and dropped them all at once...we made jam! They each took turns loading the bowl up with peaches...
Yummm...the sad thing is that we usually throw away close to 300 peaches or more each year...we have a great tree...Look at those delectables... So if you pass by pick some ...PLEASE...
Dallin as you have read ...loves to cook...so he of course had to stir...
they kids wanted homemade bread to go with the jam...Of course Abby said she didn't want "counterfeit bread" ( for those of you who heard regional conference) So I did...they love the dough because it has no eggs in it...
End result...Peach Freezer Jam and not nearly enough from that many peaches...
Today was my first day with our group of Joy School Monkeys...They really did great! We learned about decisions and this was one...They could choose a circle to color or a rectangle...From our treats to our activities everything had a decision...I really did have a great time...They are so full of life! I love it! The cutest is when we sang the song about decisions and they only sang the word "decisions" because it says it like 30 times in the song!
If you have noticed Dad is no where to be seen...He has started back to school,
Yes even "Ornery" got one... and he did the wave and everything!
They have great seats. Right on the 48 yard line! Go Blue!
Dallin turned out to be the lucky one of the day..In that entire stadium one of his good little buddies walked in and sits three rows down...He knew his friend had tickets as well, but goodness, that is about as good as it gets...your dad, your sis, a hot dog, a football shirt, at a BYU game and a buddie close by.
Sunday Afternoon Scott and I took off to our favorite place...Johnson Mill in Midway....It is gorgeous and because it was rainy..It was even more so.
When we arrived there was no where to park...Come to find out the owner was having a family Sunday get together...For the High School Musical fans..The owner is Troy Bolton's father in the show...He was there with the entire family....They were very kind and apologized knowing that we were there for a quiet get a way....
Our room was perfect...Right off the pond and water wheel...
Scott loved the skis in the corner...
I was just thrilled to be somewhere I didn't have one thing I could clean...email or phone to answer...or knock at the door...
It WAS COLD but like I said gorgeous...
When we first got there we took a canoe ride...It is the best way to relax...
The water fall off the back of the Mill...
The deck we would have had breakfast....but it was raining so we ate in the dining room.
Every couple should go and listen to the falls at Johnson Mill. we love it there and it isn't far away..but it feels like it! Pus they make you homemade cookies at night...YUMMMMM!
Over the weekend I saw this cute crayon holder in Utah Valley Magazine and decided to make on for Emma for her church bag...you know so they don't roll of the bench under the feet in front of you...Abby wanted one for her backpack and so this is how they turned out...Kind of Fun!
All in all it is Friday and the week end WAS NOT long enough and real world has set in. I have lost my mind, my forgetter is working and we haven't even started dance yet! AHHHHHHHHHHH! Oh and the kitchen sink is KAPUT! Life goes on and I am off to more well just more! The Outlaws or The Nerds?
Playing Volleyball? I don;t think they got it over the net...
We luv our bid bad wolf man!
They played water games outside and Emma of course had a great time with Diana. But the greatest part of the evening was...
Scott and Kevin! This was great. Kevin came late and was in his suit. He realized he and Scott had the same shirt...He asked me to stall and he ran home and changed into the same outfit as his buddy! What a trooper Scott was...Anyone who knows Scott...He hates to even be in the same color sceam with anyone he might know...So amazingly enough he laughed along and we all enjoyed our evening smores with....

Oakley thought it was weird that the guy had the same shirt as his dad....
Scott was pleased to be the thinner of the two...But they both at the same time said they were wearing the wrong stripe ...it needed to run the other way to be slimming and then they agreed it was sad they both knew that!
Oh what fun!
