DELINQUENT DOG RECEIVES DIPLOMA


Jasper graduates from Obedience School! It's hard to believe this ill mannered pup made it through all eight classes! He only rebelled during one class where he absolutely refused to do anything!! His behavior in the classroom may have improved but we have yet to see it in the household!!! Here is the list of things Jasper is guilty of:

Chewing and Destruction of:

One foam finger
a dollar bill
Space Derby Rocket
Rice bag
Earings
pair of swim goggles
swim shorts
4 flip flops
one Father's day Steak
paper cups
Garbage cans (He knows where all the garbage's in the
house are better than my children)
his bed
chairs
Hannah's pin cushion
wii cords
picnic lunch
someones homework

I am sure there is and will be more!! But we love the little guy just the same!!!!

BREAD



Uh ohh, not good for low carb. diets!! A friend gave us this awesome recipe for this Artisan Bread! We liked it so much we bought the cook book! I can't believe it even looks like the picture in the book. This bread is so easy and it only has four ingredients, water, flour, salt and yeast!!! It is delicious!!!!

SEWING CAMP



Hannah had this awesome opportunity to attend "I'm Sew Happy" Summer Sewing Camp this week! A lady in a neighboring ward was putting it on. They made 16 projects in three days! She has been itching to use her sewing machine again this summer and time was running out! So thank goodness for the camp! At the camp they made pajama bottoms, a sewing caddie, rice bag, pillow case, slippers, apron, book bag, crayon caddie, book covers, hot pads, pin cushions and decorated t-shirts, and flip flopps. I am sure I missed something! It was an great experience!!! I am so grateful for people who share their talents!!

COOKING CAMP

Get the red and white cook book! You could always trust the Better Homes and Garden red and white cook book! Last night we got "The NEW Better Homes and Garden JUNIOR Cook Book." Jeff and the kids got busy today in the kitchen making a delicious dessert. They made "Gimme Smore" smores! I can't wait to taste them they have to chill a couple of hours!

JULY 3rd 16 YEARS & COUNTING




"Time flies when you are having fun!" I can't believe we have been married for 16 years! Where does the time go? Marriage is like a good wine (so they say) it only gets better with age! I don't think I knew how blessed I was the day I met and then married Jeff! I am so grateful to have him in my life! He is MY Rock!

You are my Rock

This gift is more that a box of rocks

Each one was earned through talks and walks

We built a foundation of our own

Rock by rock and stone by Stone.

It all started in Geology,

Who would have known you'd marry me.

Rock by rock stone by stone

Oh, look how our love has grown.

Some rocks can withstand all tests of time

Just like the love that's yours and mine

Rock by rock and stone by stone

I am so glad that your my own.
