high on a mountain top

Recently while the kids were spending week in california with grandparents we went up to the top of the mountain range just up the street. It was so beautiful! I was surprized to find the top is covered in meadows of wild flowers.

tidbits

Garrett has started a business specializing in bakery and resturant repair. This is the logo Garrett, his Dad and his friend Steve put together. We were really excited to put it on the truck be offical and all that stuff.

A little while ago we watch Christopher's kids while they were on a trip, it was weird having the children we would have had if we had continued. Nobody told us 3 kids was the hard part and after that it was the same chaos.

Beautiful

When my parents moved us to Mt. Pleasant when I was a teenager I thought we had moved to the ugliest place I had ever seen (that was even after Mont. Creek) I don't know what was wrong with my eyes other than I was an teenager. We took the kids up skyline drive and Maple canyon. I'm amazed at the beauty of this valley

While in Maple Canyon we were wandering down odd roads and found a doomsday bunker! Of course now Garrett wants one. I told him he could have one he just has to dig it himself.  Suspect it's not going to happen.

Moved and all that stuff

Sooooo, we finally moved, sold our house in Texas and settled in our new house in Mt. Pleasant. It has been a really rough ride but we are finally though some of it. There is no way I can write about everything so I will just put pictures up and tell what was happening.

 This is our new kitchen. We had our old table in there but it took up the whole kitchen so our old friend IKEA had this table with the folding leaves on both sides which has saved our lives and our space. Of course most of the time we actually lift on the leaves to eat...

 First day of school pictures, I am now working as the high school/district librarian so Daddy is in charge of getting the kids up and out.
