"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Old house

I really wanted a picture of my old house so the other day when I was in the neighborhood I snapped a picture of it through the window of my car. My kids always ask where they use to live and they don’t remember since they were so little when we moved so now I can show them.

Reading

I love to see the kids reading and when I looked over and saw this I had to snap a quick picture with my phone. I love these little people of mine.

Time Out

There are days that this sweet little boy does not like his Mommy and this day was one of them. He does not like to be put in the corner on the stool for time out.

Apple Tree

We planted this apple tree years ago and we have never gotten any apples and this year we finally got some and they were the best apples I have ever had!! The kids loved going outside and picking fresh apples and eating them. We are hoping next year we will get even more apples!!

Jaxon’s Carseat

I finally decided to sell Jaxon’s car seat that has been sitting on my storage room shelf for years. I have had a new car seat with every baby and I just keep them and store them so I decided it was time to get rid of this one. I brought it upstairs and Raegan sat in it and played with it and had so much fun!!

Flag Football Pictures

I had the privilege of taking team pictures for Maddy’s football team and it was so fun. I love taking pictures and this was an extra fun photo session. I love this cute little team of girl football players they are all so fun to watch.

Apple Pie Filling

I decided to try canning apple pie filling for the first time ever!! It was so fun and my Mom and Dad and sister came to help me and we had a blast. It is so yummy and makes the best apple pies!!! I am pretty sure this will be something I do every year now.

Apples

We have apples growing on our apple tree this year and Raegan has discovered how yummy apples are! She loves apples!! But really Rae eats anything she is not picky at all she just loves food in general no matter what it is.

Peek A Boo

Raegan loves to play peek a boo and she does it so cute and tries to the say the words. My Mom taught her peek a boo when she was really little and I just think it is so cute. So she found this trunk of mine and figured out that it opened up and she got in it and was playing peek a boo in it, it was the cutest thing ever. Raegan is such a cutie pie and so fun! Peek a Boo Rae!!

Silly Girl

Raegan loves hats or anything that she can put on her head so she found this bike helmet and stuck it on her head and climbed on this tubberware and just sat there for the longest time. She is so silly and is so easily entertained.

Canning Peaches

I seriously have an addiction to canning, I love it!!! I especially love peaches though and I get carried away and do tons every year, but they kids love them and they always eat them all up before the next year comes around so it’s a good thing.
