Elk

So, hunting season was not successful this year. Rocky did not come home with an elk. Much to all of our dismay. It was a hard month on everyone, but the one great thing that came out of this season was Rocky's health. He has lost over 30 pounds, and is in great shape. I am proud of you babe!

Harvest

I love this time of year. There is a chill in the air, and it is time to start baking, canning, and dehydrating. This year I canned salsa for the first time. It was fun. I made up my own recipe, so it was not as spicy as it should be. It is a good base though. I also dehydrated bananas and squash this year. We ate all the bananas, then I have saved the squash so that I can just throw it in soups. Yum! I love it when the house is warm and smells good. Hopefully I can get one more canning session in before the end of the month. Happy harvest everyone!

Hello Blue Eyes!

This is my darling nephew. He came for a visit this past weekend. His parents, and my parents came too. It was great to see all of them. But, the highlight was defiantly getting to know my nephew a little better. Here is what I learned......

When he talks, it sounds like he is singing.

He has very quick feet. He could be a future River Dance man.

He is a light sleeper, but if he is awake everyone should be too.

He loves being outside and getting dirty.

He makes elephant noises, or tries too.

He has no idea who Uncle Rocky is.

I am so glad Mason came. It was nice to have baby sounds in the house again. Reese and Lacey thanks for coming. I know there wasn't a whole lot happening around here, but I loved having you. My kids are still talking about the weekend. We love you, and can't wait to see you next month!

"Honey, don't be mad."

That was the sentence I heard coming into the kitchen last week. Then I realized what he was talking about.... just another broken broom. No, this is not the first time it has happened. This is the forth broom he has busted. Buy a stronger broom... it doesn't work. We have had brooms made out of all materials, and this is what happens to them. The trick to not breaking the broom is to use it for what it is intended, sweeping. Not shoveling snow, scraping the floor to get up what the kids spilled, or whatever else he has tried. I guess he just doesn't know his own strength. Oh, and no I was not not mad, it is starting to become funny.
