Gerald's fruits and labor.....

We all know that Gerald loves to work out in the garden and yard. He enjoys making the yard look nice and enjoys watching the progression of the garden. He has done alot of work this summer. He has made the garden bigger and has done alot of work on the yard. Here is some pictures of the garden and yard.

End of the Summer Family Party....

Well are whole family got together yesterday...What fun it is to be able to come together and enjoy the fruits of Gerald's labor. We had a barbecue at our house and had things from our garden. Potatoe salad, tomatoes, onions, and corn from the garden, along with all the other good stuff Hamburgers and Hot Dogs. How fun it was to provide and not have to spend a lot of money to have our family over. It was nice to visit and talk. I had two of my brothers and my dad, and my aunt and uncle. We sat around ate and talk..Watched kids, etc. It was fun. One of my brothers even brave it enough to jump into our pool and went swimming with Christopher and Anna. I hope that we will be able to do this again next year. We missed my sister and my other brother that were not able to make it to Preston to enjoy the festivities.

Salt Lake City Weekend....

Well school started on Thursday. It is very quite in our house. Devin really misses the kids. Me and the kids took a trip to SLC for the weekend to hang out with our friends, THE MOSLEY's. We had alot of fun. Saturday we went shopping at the gateway. While we were there I let Christopher and Devin go play in the fountain they have there. They had so much fun doing that. They really enjoyed it. They both did very well with the shopping that day.The teenagers actually got tired out shopping. They had to stop at the Lovesac store and rest in one of the lovesacs.. The rest of the time we kind of just hung out. The older kids thought that it was fun just to ride the elevators at the Sheraton. Taylor started Ballroom tryouts. They will go until the 13th of September. Both girls start piano this week and dance next week. So by next week will be in the normal schedule for school time... Things are going good. I work still, I think to much...but what are you going to do...there is always going to be something. We are getting ready for a family barbecue at our house. That should be a fun way to bring an end to summer.

Drivers Permit...

Watch out everyone, Taylor is on the road. She passed her Drivers Ed yesterday..She is so excited that she gets to drive now. So she will have her permit for 6 months, then she can go get her license.Then you really have to watch out. She will be driving by herself. A new chapter in life. Amazing how time flies. I can remeber when she was just a baby. Now she is a beautiful young lady. How time flies.
