Happy Harvest!


We have had a lot of fun in the garden this year. I just love this time of year with all fresh veggies! I love to top off every meal with something fresh and homegrown. We are so blessed to have our Grandma and Aunts with such a talent. I will have to brag and say their garden is the best in town ;) and we are lucky enough to live next door to it. I have really learned so much from them and think I could probably grow my own, but why try, right?

Kennedy's favorite things from the garden this year are corn on the cob, cherries, apples, and just recently she likes the cherry tomatoes. I would have to say her all time fave is the grapes!!! If I ever wonder where Kennedy is, I always know where to look. She just stands at the grape vines and fills her belly. She never really asks for snacks anymore because she can just get one herself!


Jackson's preschool class came and toured the garden. They had so much fun learning about how things grow and they got to try new things. They each got to take a bag of veggies home. The next day they asked if they could come back to our garden, I think they had a good time.


Jackson made a new best buddy in his class this year and they are so cute to watch together. Isn't it precious, they're holding hands.

They Accepted our Offer

YEAH!!!!! We put an offer in on a house and figured we were dreaming. This house is 3333 Square feet and was way out of our budget, but we took our chances and gave them a really low offer. I guess they were pretty desperate because they actually took it! We are so excited and if everything goes as planned we will close on October 31st. That is less than a month away, holy crap! We have been waiting for this for three years so I guess patience really does pay off.
