Catch Up Post!!!

Jeepers, it's been awhile, thanks in part to a busy schedule and back to school-ness going on, but mostly due to getting a new phone and not knowing how to upload photos from it into my laptop.  Apparently I had to update iTunes and now I'm good.  Anyway, it's good to be bloggin' again!  The girls and I got back a week ago from a nice long little visit with my family in Ohio - which zipped by WAY too fast.  The very next day the kids started back to school, and then I was back to work!  I've had a 3 day weekend off to get caught up, breathe, and finally unpack - that's right, I finally did it today.

 Ya'shar and Ni'ke are still on the same campus at Spring Creek, 2nd and 3rd grades

 Ma-lak and Rea are back at Matanzas in 4th and 5th grades!  Wow!

 Sometime while I was gone, my back yard decided to make up for lost time this summer and start producing fruit.  I have piles of lemons, apples, pears and tomatoes!  Yay for my little harvest!

 I even decided to try my hand at apple butter because it just sounded good.  I think I'll be the only one eating it....  (I gave this cute little jar to our land lords so they know we are taking good care of their apple trees.)  :)

Looking forward to starting this series called "The Story" at church in a couple weeks - the children and adults are all going thru the Bible in chronological order.  Love seeing my kids excited about learning scriptures and learning their "story".   Blessings to you all!!!
