Ward service project on our house

Our ward came over last Saturday to help work on our remodel. There were about 50 people there! There were men on the roof helping Craig, there were people cutting wood, cleaning up the backyard and front yard, women bringing lunch..drinks and cookies

for all of the hard workers! Some of the women (and men) were in the house cleaning! (My cabinets were scrubbed down, the oven and the floors swept and cleaned! It truly was one of the neatest experiances Craig and I have ever had. We feel so truly blessed to be friends of such wonderful angels!

Pioneer Day '09

Yep! It's already that time of the year again. We go to the attic, find our 'pioneer attire'....hop in the van and drive to the church where we eat, socialize, look at the interesting booths and take a family picture! I love it! This year was just as fun as the last. My only regret was that I didn't hit the dessert table until the end....but even then there were still some tasty treats! I have to add that my husband looked so darn cute in his suspenders. (What a great hubby to dress up for me!) We brought our chicken ..(no, not to BBQ) to show the children there. ( I think she even enjoyed it! ) We went next door to Hurst Ranch and got to play with the water pump and pick whatever we wanted out of the huge garden! We brought back some tomatoes and the biggest cabbage I have ever seen! (I made cabbage-ham soup with it later for dinner and it was good!!!!) I love Pioneer Day!
