End of Summer Fun!!

Yes, I am alive. I took a bit of a blogging break due to the non-creative juices that were or were not flowing, but I am back with a little end of summer fun. (Summer did not technically end until September 23 or there about)

Jefferson really loves animals. Really, Really loves animals!! I took a week and decided to teach him about birds. We got a bunch of books and we watched for them outside. He is always pointing out bird houses so I decided that we would make one.

Exhibit A: Ugly cheap boots

Exhibit B: Cute colorful birdhouse/feeder

Pretty fun, huh!! It was really easy and Jefferson loves to point it out. Unfortunately, due to a lot of wind storms the bird feeder is usually empty so we have not seen any birds gracing us with their presence. Hopefully some will come soon.

Jason's dad and sister drove up to drop said sister of at BYU and Grandpa came to visit us for a couple days. I can see where Jason gets his gardening from. That was really the first thing he wanted to show his dad, so I let them have some guy time at the garden. We recently dug up our potatoes and we had masses, but it was really fun. Like digging for treasure. We got some really hug ones.

Grandpa and Jefferson sharing some weeds. Those are the peach trees in the back. We picked ours in the middle of September and, oh my, they were so big and delicious. Loved them.

We also celebrated my dad's birthday. Such a great fellow. Love him!!!

And lastly (at least for this post) we went to visit Jason at his work to watch a test launch for a rocket booster. Jefferson was a little nervous with so many people around, but he quickly got over that and started throwing rocks.


Pretty loud!! But pretty cool!
