Family Dinner

Tonight everyone came over for dinner. Dawn is in Colorado at a football game...bbrrr. James made a fruit salad concoction that he ended up putting ice-cream in to save its life. Into the freezer...and everyone loved it. Grandpa Phil played a rolling ball game with George and Ella. They liked to pass to each other more than to grandpa. Bob brought out MAD GAB and they typed the sentences into the computer so everyone could play. Maddi was the all time winner. She is who you want on you team. Jessica made Zucchini desert with chocolate chips. It was great. This Tuesday James is going to be set apart as a missionary. It was a fun family night.

We labored on Labor Day

Today we packed up and drove the truck down to Orem. Phil and Uncle Joe cut down the 8 trees in front of the Orem house. Meanwhile, back at the farm, the boys and I weeded. Even Shelly came down and weeded. She is always happy to help. Then we helped grandpa and grandma get their washer and dryer into the garage...then off the Beckies to help her with some mowing. It was fun to see 3 of Beckies children with their families. Tomorrow is the big day for Rachel and Bruno. Dad is sleeping on the porch swing as he waits for Bob to come home from the Bee's game. A neighbor invited him to go with their family.
