Sunday and Monday - grease trap

 These girls are committed to selling donuts for the band. They are sending texts and emails and I am running them around to collect money.

Jessie's magnolia tree is BEAUTIFUL. 

Spencer is doing great in music. 

Brynlee has been hiding her racoon pillow aorund the house, I found it in my sock drawer today. 

oh boy.... This poor man. The sink was clogged at the Red Front. The hood cleaners used out 3 compartment sink to clean all the grease off of the grates of our hood -- YUCK they usually take it our side and pressure wash it off. Needless to say all the grease clogged the sink and ultimately overloaded the grease trap.

 It has been on Jordan's list to empty it for a while..... well it moved up the list to emergency level today. 

These are not the glamorous/fun things about the Red Front. 

Well it is now emptied and Jordan took a long shower. 

Baby Ducks and goats

 Our pediatrician is THE BESTT!!!! He invited us over to his house in Fort Madison to see his baby ducks.  The Kids had a great time. 

The flowers are looking great at the temple.

We also went over to the Jacksons and saw there baby goats. 

What a fun day 

summer prep begins

We are preparing to make 1000's of molasses cookies....... We pre measure all the spices in bags. 1 bag does 1 batch.  

We added a fun item today, the. "turk-a-dilla" We also are getting pictures updated. 

Cheese Burger 

The trees are looking beautiful.  I had a great walk. 

Just waiting for a friend outside, she didn't come so I enjoyed a walk

A cute picture of Addy and Talmage helping with the rubber chips at school. 

Always love the Temple. 

YW - Mac and Cheese

 Starting the day with the Temple is a great way to start the day. 

Talmage had to go get some blood drawn to check his Iron levels. 

It sure looks differnt out there, but it is SO nice to not be worried about the tree's falling on the house. 

For YW we learned how to make Mac and CHeese  from sweet Jennie Nielson. 

It was AWESOME and delicious 

We had a great time. I love serving in the YW with these ladies.

Trees coming down --FINALLY

FINALLY. the tree company was able to come and start on  the trees 

I cooked and froze a bunch of sausage for the kids to have in there eggs for breakfast. always trying to help Morgan of the Future. 

Prairie grass burning

JOrdan jstu taunting Brynlee about her new video game that came while she was at school. Oh Dad....

 

We sure look forward to the Prairie Grass burning

It is always really neat and very fast. 

These girls worked there last day at the Red Front.  We will Miss Kaylee and Sarah. 

A nice sunday and Jordan is home

 We had a great Sunday. Jordan got home from his off site. In the evening we had a presidency training with the youth. They did a great job. I am excited to see all they will accomplish in there classes. 

Spencer built a great tent. 

Sundays are the best days with the Family.
