Jam...and LOTS of it!!

I'm a little behind on my postings...but last Sunday my mom came up and taught me and Stacey how to make strawberry jam. It was sooooooo EASY!!!! Even I managed to do ok... with just a few issues....

From this...

Justin's Poor Mustang...

Justin's Mustang didn't quite make it home yesterday. Luckily it died just a few blocks from our house...but still had to spend his first night outside of the garage. This morning the tow truck came and picked him up to get fixed. Justin isn't quite sure what is wrong, but was NOT happy about it. Hopefully it is something simple...I LOVE that car and don't want him to go to a new home.

Weekend Projects!!!

Justin and I have wanted to make some kind of patio in the back yard. We went to Lowe's this weekend and picked out some stones...bought a few and thought we would get a "start" on it. Well once we got going...we couldn't stop. ha ha Justin did most of the work...lifting the 70 huge pieces of rock and putting them all into place. My job was filling in the cracks with sand. We got it all done Monday night and it looks FABULOUS!!!! I'm soooooo excited!!! I wish I had taken some "before" pictures.
I also finally got some flowers for the flower beds in the front yard. It looks so much better with some color in them!!!

Our finished patio.

Class Reunion

Friday night Justin and I went down to Manti for my 20 year High School Class Reunion. We had a pretty good turn out--I think there were about 31 classmates plus spouses. We chatted a bit, ate some dinner, then we had a slide show of pictures from when we were in High School. It was HILARIOUS!!! After that they passed a microphone around and each of us told a few things about us...job, kids etc. It was alot of fun to hear what people have been up to. After some pictures the place booted us all out--so a bunch of us went to one of the guys house there in town and we ended up talking til 2am!!! Justin and I drove home after...we were VERY sleepy!! But I had sooo much fun seeing so familiar faces again!!

The Park

Today while Colton was at Grandma & Grandpa's and Justin was out for a ride on his Harley---Garrett and I took a little walk and ended up at the park. He always LOVES going there and we had a fun time even though it was HOT!!

Garrett's New Hat!

Kailey is off track starting today---she brought some bandanna's with her and made her and Garrett a cute hat. Garrett refuses to take his off.

Flag Football!!

Colton started flag football last Sat. He LOVES it!!! He had his second game yesterday. It was raining when we left the house--I thought for sure they would cancel the game. It rained the entire game! At one point it was coming down soooo hard! All the kids (and parents) were SOAKING wet by the time it was over. But of course the kids didn't care..they all seemed to have a great time.

Colton is on the right.
