Hallie discovered the joy of cookie cutters, and sugar cookie dough. :)
Waiting is the hardest part.

Spaghetti Sauce

10.9.2010

I came across a spaghetti sauce recipe a few years ago that we really like, so we try to can it occasionally. We decided that while my parents garden had the fresh vegetables that we would make some more one Saturday.

Stirring, stirring, stirring

This is about a third of what we made. We made 30 quarts overall. It turned out okay, not as good as it has been in the past, but oh well.

Slide and Box

10.8.2010

One day we were bored, so we made a slide for Hallie's toys. She thought it was great to put her toys down the slide into the pot and listen to the different sounds they made. It was a fun learning activity for her.


Then we found a box...

And they were entertained for a long time. :) Boxes really are the greatest toys

Stewart Falls

10.2.2010

Conference weekend Kelsie and Rob invited us to go hike Stewart Falls with them and enjoy the Fall colors. So we dropped Hallie off to play with Emi, Lizzie and Alisa at my parents and off we went.

It was a beautiful day, and a beautiful hike.




Thanks Rob and Kelsie! We had a great time!

Squash

9.26.2010
This picture cracks me up.

Hallie insisted on cooking the squash she picked at Grandma's house, which I did...she at one bite and spit it back out

Grandma Adam's Birthday and Horses

9.25.2010

The weekend of my Grandma's birthday we all got together again. We looked at fun pictures, had lunch and cake, played, and took balloons to the cemetery. It was fun to see all the family we don't see too often.

Hallie had a lot of fun, and LOVED going and see the horses. I think that she got pretty much everyone to take her over there to see them.

Tired Monkey

9.18.2010
We went to Iggy's to watch a BYU football game, and Hallie was exhausted. She never falls asleep anywhere but her carseat and her bed, so we were shocked that she fell asleep in such a busy, loud place.
