Playing Catch Up

Here is a quick catch up of things we have been up to:

• Homemade Salsa Making with my neighbor Keri. It was quite the project but it turned out very delicious so it was worth it! It was my first attempt at canning too. I tried Grandpa Bunker's method of quick sealing the bottles which explains the upside down bottles. By the way, we have already gone through half of these bottles.

• Chris surprised me with a "mini personal vacay" up to Aspen Grove. We went up Friday afternoon and came back Saturday afternoon. It was one of those marriage retreat things that they put on a couple of times a year and was really good. They fed us well, had a good speaker to listen to, had so many fun activities available and provided a beautiful setting for it all. It was great! A big thanks to Aunt Chris for watching Grant for us. That's the longest I have been away from him and it was really good for me. A nice break that was long enough to give me the chance to miss him.

• Dressing Grant up in my brothers's old Sunday outfits. Isn't he so handsome?

• Conference weekend up at the cabin which deserves a post of its own. The weather ended up making it quite the adventure. Here is a picture before the bad weather hit. Gorgeous huh? I love Fall.
