We went to Utah for Thanksgiving. There was snow. It was cold. The scarf that Jeff brought back from Peru kept me warm. We met Erin's parents Kent and Kay Simmons. We also got to go to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Broadcast sunday morning which was great.

What havwe we been doing? We carved pumpkins and
roasted the pumpkins seeds. We walk to church when it is
sunny. We painted our office (Sarah old bedroom) a light
grayish blue. We harvested lots of good stuff from our garden
including corn, tomaotes, lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, and
kohlrabi.

Jeff got engaged to a wonderful lady named Erin. And my grandson Jared turned 3.

Steven got married July 10th. It was a great day.

In the last 2 months lost of stuff has happened. Russell graduated from The University of Washington with a Masters degree in Accounting. WOW! We are really proud of him. He has already take all four parts of the CPA exams and passed 3 of them with excellent grades. The fourth he does not know about. yet.
