Dad's Birthday

Last weekend at Dad's birthday party at Sarah and Dan's house:
Emma says 'HI!" from the other room :-) LOL isn't she soo cute!!


the girls made personalized stuffed animals (courtesy of aunt Lisa :-)

Bethany's masterpiece!
Bethany shows off the 'birth certificat' of her stuffed animal
Joanna and I played 'roll the ball back and forth' while Josh and Dad played ping pong
later we played the Nintendo Wii Fit and Rock Band and some American Idol
We really had a great time!

Hiking and Asian Pears...


Sorry it's been such a crazy long time since I've updated the blog, it's been really busy around here :-) Better late than never, eh? We are working this week on getting the wood burning stove in the MIL & FIL's cabin. then next weekend will be the huge project of digging and installing a city water line from the road to the cabin (1600 feet to the road). It will be worth it though since the well water has been pretty low lately, and if we plan to get up there this winter, it will be nice to have water! lol Josh's brother in law Mike and sister Kristy were in last weekend, we had alot of fun with them and they took lots of pictures of our messy farm to show everyone. LOL :-) Here are some pics we took while they were here too, thought you might like to see

(and what a pear! or uhhh.. pears :-) LOL
we found an asian pear tree full grown up on the farm
and it had these wonderful pears on it! we were so excited, it
was such a wonderful fall surprise! Joanna has been eating pears like
crazy, she will walk over to the table, grab a pear (or two)
and start munching away :-)
and here is Josh's sister Kristy and her husband Mike
(typical for Josh's family, they are both very tall, Kristy is 6'1")
