Thanksgiving 2018

So...no thanksgiving at the farm this year, sadly.

Saturday included pumpkin carving, DQ cake for

Kelsey's 22nd bday and a night of smoked ribs,

friends and games.

Sunday we had a turkey meal together with family.

Very fun to have Glenn, Allan, and Evan join us.

Judy also made an appearance!!!

We had a little impromptu piano/violin concert as well.
(Thanks for being good sports!)

We just had to do "When He Cometh"
even though we didn't have the music or words.
A Larson Cousins special!

On Monday we went shooting out at

Dylan's place.  The girls stayed warm in

one of Dylan's old vehicles - very comfy seats!

Dylan showed us his home as well.

Fall walk

Fun walk with these two and their

fur babies.  I can't believe that

little Sage can walk the whole Tatagwa trail

with those little legs!

Range Day

Outdoor Breakfast

 Great to have everyone together for

a 'steak and eggs' breakfast outdoors.

Eric turned 30 on Sept. 5th, so

we had to include a little celebration for that!

 Josiah, Tyler and Dylan took turns shooting

each other with airsoft (for fun they called it!)

Surprise Visit

 We had a great surprise visit from Zach

on Monday of the September Long Weekend.

So nice to see him after such a long time.

This is Erin with him and she has been a 

great cheerleader in Zach's life.  It was

great to meet her as well.

Grace's 73rd Birthday

Today is Grace's 73rd Birthday.

I thought it would be fun to have our picture

taken together...Her and I don't always agree

on the definition of fun!!!

We do both agree on chocolate though -

so I try to never show up without that.

She starts holding her hand out before I even

get it to her.  The days I forget....I might as

well just keep on driving by!

Summer days

Terry didn't have to ask twice if we

should dig out the inflatable pool one

hot afternoon!

 Haven't taken the time for many

evening walks on the Tatagwa trail this summer,

 but last night was a great night for it!

Appreciation Supper

 Yesterday we worked out at camp to prepare

a special supper for the summer missionaries.

Dayna and Linda put a lot of work into it

to make it so special with great food

and decorating.

Squirt Camp

 Kelsey was the chapel speaker for Squirt Camp.

She has taken on many roles at camp over the years.

Camper, Kitchen Helper, Cleaning Lady, Junior Cabin Leader,

Senior Cabin Leader, Secretary...and now speaker.
She did a great job.
Thankful for the all these young people that are willing to serve.

Family Camp Fun

 Terry spent the afternoons smoking meat for people to sample

 Informal birthday celebration for Dad.
