 Wood fired oven progress continues...

 Snack time on grandma's new picnic table...

 The crate that the oven parts came in, this might be a playhouse in the future. We'll see what grandpa Bob comes up with...

Apricots

 Last night we went to to the Schmidt's farm to pick apricots and a few apples. The Lawsons were there too, it was good to spend some time with them and Joel. After we left there, we drove up north of town to see if there are any sand hill plums at Grandma Cretia's and Uncle Warren's places. There are a bunch and will be ready soon.

There were some apples too, but they were very tart. Tru liked it though.

This dog's name is Honey. It was so sweet to hear Amelia talking to her and saying Honey.

Today was a pretty nice Saturday, except for Travis and I both having to work. He worked in the morning and I did in the afternoon at the Big Well Museum. It was a very busy day at the museum, we did very well. In the morning the kids and I had breakfast, watched tv (Amelia is really into the Fresh Beat Band right now) and did housework. Travis took these pictures of her with all of her animals lined up on the couch.

Tonight Ray and Pat had us, mom and dad and Marie out for prime rib. It was so good and a beautiful evening outside. I took each of the kids for a 4 wheeler ride while Travis, Ray and Marie went and shot.

Pics

Boots

 It was hard to get a picture because she wouldn't stand still, but Amelia looked really cute for church yesterday. She wore the yellow dress that Aunt Ashley got her for her birthday and her "new" garage sale find purple boots. The last two weeks at church she has been such a sweetie to the older men. As soon as Clair walked in, she ran up to him for him to pick her up. Then she hugged on him. He just melted, it was so sweet.

Right before church was going to start, mom asked her if she wanted to sing a song, so they went to the front. But TJ came up too soon to start the service so they couldn't sing. Mom set her on a stool and she sat nice, but started undoing the buttons on her dress. She made it down to her waist before the song was over, then I got up and buttoned her up. She would have ended up naked in the front of church.




After church, we went to mom and dad's for lunch, then spent a couple of hours there afterwards.

Amelia has figured out how to open the frig and freezer doors herself. In the morning for the last couple of weeks she'll help herself to a string cheese for her and one for Truman. Not this morning, she came into my bedroom with a huge smile and said "look mommy, popcicle!" She found an orange sherbet push up on the door of the freezer. Good breakfast ;)
