Food Storage

Gpa & Gma Stone bought huge bags of food from the church and a bunch of these silver bags so their children could start or add to their food storage. These are the bags my parents and me & my kiddos sealed for us. The kids had a great time learning how to measure and *carefully* pour the food in and they thought the "oxygen scrubbers" were really cool. Thank you mom and dad!

I've finally got all of my butterfly art up on the wall. Thank you everyone for your contributions for my collage! I absolutely love it! Every time i look at it I remember that so many people love me! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Garden Cake

Grandma Stone was in the process of making a "garden cake" for a ward dinner to discuss the ward garden that is going to go on a section of Gpa&Gma's property. Ash & CJ found out what she was doing and got right in and helped her design and create it. They had tons of ideas and thoroughly enjoyed helping ...(taking over) grandma's project!



Making a pumpkin patch out of orange and 2 different green frostings.




Ash thought that making the leaves was the funnest part.



The finished product was ADORABLE! There were pumpkins, watermelons, cantaloupe, carrots, tomatoes, onions, and green beans on trellises (the kiddos idea). Mom's contribution was a little sign that said "No rabbits allowed".

Sick CJ


Poor CJ got sick during spring vacation. He spent a lot of time sleeping on the couch.




He had a high fever and so we put him in a cool bath to cool him down. he didn't want to sit up in it so we folded 3 towels and put them into the water for a pillow and he asked me to bring in my ipod and speakers so he could watch "Megamind" during his bath. He said that this is how he wants to take baths from now on...



Feeling good enough to play mario bros on the couch...
