Trip to Sunny St. George

Trip to St. George - October 2009
Swimin' outside in heated pools.
How awesome is that?!!
Jenson was getting quite brave in the kiddie pool.
The water felt like bath water - outside in October.

It was awesome!

oops!

Havin' fun in the sunny St. George





Splitin' & Stackin' the wood

Time to split and stack the wood.
It looks like a beautiful autumn day,
but it was COLD!!


Once again, I didn't get the pictures in order. oh well, they're posted.


Family wood haul - 2009

Gotta stock up on some wood for those cold winter nights
that are coming our way.

We've got some hard workin' kids! We couldn't do it without them.



Havin' fun on our family "wood haul"

Working together

Re-roofing our house. It was quite the family project.
Everyone was so good to help.
I just realized I don't have a picture of the new roof.
And the order is backwards again. oops!

The little ones got on the roof twice. That was more
than enough for mom's nerves.

Thank goodness for handy tools that make the job easier.
Dad's muscles help a lot too!

Getting the shingles off was the most time consuming part.
Luckily on the front of the house we could slide most
of the shingles right into the trailer. On the back side
I had to personally haul them to the trailer.
Once again, mom did the ground work while everyone
else was on the roof.

Jacie's 15th b-day

Nothing like a pizza party on the roof
for Jacie's 15th b-day

Making memories









happy birthday jacie!!
We love you!!

Messes, oh how Mom loves them!

Oops! If I would have listened to my Mom,
I wouldn't be all covered in flour.


When the lid is not on all the way it can tip easily.
Imagine that!! Don't move!!

Delicious!




I made soup bowl for the first time
with Cheesy Broccoli Soup.
YUM, YUM!
