Canning Peaches

Here is the "after" of the peach picking. Henry helped me slip the peaches and I did the rest. They're not professional looking, but hey, it's my first time on my own. We also ate a whole bunch with cream...still my favorite dessert. My kids weren't crazy about the peaches and cream...but more for me. We are going to try to go back so that we can pick more and make syrup for our waffles and pancakes...yum.

Picking Peaches

Tuesday we went with a family in the ward to go peach picking. They also had some goats, hens and bunnies to pet at the farm. It was fun and we feel like we are getting to know the ward a little better. Other than that it has been pretty slow. I met with the other Den mom yesterday and planned out the first 2 months of Den meetings. Evidently ours is the biggest Primary in the area and we are going to include 2 boys from 2 other wards in our den. (Our wolf den has 3 kids and the bear den also has 3). I feel sorry for them having to make the drive, but if they want to...

Day at the Park

The kids and I are having a hard time adjusting to the pool here. It's much cooler than we are used to and if you've met my kids you know they don't have much insulation on them. We usually spend about an hour and then leave because we are cold. Monday we went to the playground right by the pool afterwards. Here are some pictures. P.S. yes those are pajama tops that Samuel is wearing....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SADIE

Yesterday was the big #3 for Sadie. The kids and I went to the pool with some people from the ward and then went to get her birthday dinner. She wanted pizza (so yes, we had pizza night on Wed instead of Thurs this week), and a vanilla, chocolate and blueberry cake. If you have met me, you know that I bought all of this. I was personally impressed that we found a vanilla, chocolate and blueberry cake. Of course she picked off the blueberries and said they were "disgusting."

She got a really cool Lego castle, a bed for her stuffed bear (which I think Samuel is more into than Sadie), and some clothes for same bear. It was a fun day.

Perfect Combination

This is my idea of the perfect fast food restaurant. Yum!
