Friday September 16

We stopped by the Farmstead today after we picked the girls up from school.
We did a little bit of apple picking.
There is one tree that had some pretty decent apples.
I can't wait to see what happens out there when we get water to everything!!!!!
And we got to meet yet another neighbor.
Her name is Carol, and I am so excited about her.
She is so spunky and so nice.
She told the kids to call her what her grand kids call her....which is bubbles.
And she is SO excited about us being out there!
But of course the place has been a eye sore for the past 4 years, so we are very welcome new comers!!!
She will be a lot of fun to live by.
She said we were welcome to have anything out of her garden.
She LOVES to make her garden pretty, but doesn't like to do anything with the produce she gets.
You know, like canning and stuff.
I am sure she will come in very useful when it comes to making my garden beautiful.
IT is just all so exciting!
Things just keep getting better and better.
Except for the fact that we are still not out there!
And as of now, they are still unsure if we will be able to close on the 23rd, let alone any earlier, like we wanted to!
Kind of a bummer.
But I am sure everything is gonna work out fast.
I am praying that it does!
*****
Brent's phone did a surprisingly good job taking pictures today.
That's good, cause I didn't have my camera with me....





And if you can't tell by the shirts, it is a Bronco game night.
After the Farmstead, we headed to Subway.
It is their anniversary today, so they were giving away a free foot long with any foot long sandwich.
What a perfect game night dinner!
Then it was time for the game.
Port and Elsie plopped themselves in front of the TV.
Just adorable!


Cassi and I made some PB cookies for the game too.
We tried to make them blue and orange....blue turned a little green, but it was the thought that counts, right???
Anyway, GO BRONCOS!!!!!
