Diaper Bag

FALL is offically here and boy is it ever beautiful. That means that I a going to get a lot of sewing, quilting, stitching and scraping done. I took a class at The Gathering Place. I made a diaper bag, not that I need a diaper bag, but it will make a great church bag or stitching bag. Actually, I made it for Chalet. And if I hadn't lost my camera card;( you could see what it looks like. Kona and I are going to make ours, hope by then I will have found the card or maybe I'll just get a new one. Anyway remember LIFE IS YUMMY!

FIRE in the Cans

We had a little bit of excitement on Sunday at the reunion. I am sitting where I could see the garbage cans and I notice that there is some smoke coming from behind the cans. I thought that maybe someone was grilling , but when flames started coming out of the cans I say to Cody (who is a volunteer fireman in Logan), I think we have a problem. He grabbed the fire extingusher from the trailer. So Con and Cody ran to put it out, but it needed a little bit more stuff on it, so Con called 911 and reported the problem. Didn't get a picture of the fire truck.
We think that someone put hot briquettes into the cans. STUPID!

The grandkids and Aunt Kona watching Cody and Grandpa in action with the fire.

Haycock Reunion 2010

Labor Day brought on the Haycock Reunion at Cherry Hills in Kaysville, Ut. We had fun in the sun, Minute To Win It Games (except the wind came up and we couldn't finish, because we had to tie down tents and campers), ate a whole bunch of yummy food, crafts and lots of memories.

How's that working for you, Mindy?

Fall is on the Way

Last weekend we went huckleberry hunting. First time! It was raining and blowing like crazy but we just kept picking. We got about 2 quarts of berries. I made freezer jam and got 7 pints.

Grandpa Con picking. We were soaking wet by the time we fnished.

This little guy was putting peanuts away for the winter. He would come up pretty close to us to get the peanuts.

There is a mommy moose and her twin cubs on the Island and every once in a while we get to see them up close. They like to hang out by our cabin. This is the mommy and the twins are not to far away.

Grandpa's Ribs and Tri Tip

The boys enjoying ribs and corn. Looks like they are not complaining and enjoying them from ear to ear.

Jaycie got plenty of attention from Conner and Taygan.

Fair Time Birthdays

Well one more fair week is history. We now have three B-days during fair week so to celebrate we do it on Sunday. Kona turned 28, Jared, 31 and Grandpa Con, 56. Grandpa Con cooked Tri Tip, pork ribs, corn on the cob and potatoes on his new Traeger Smoker. And of course a DQ ice cream cake. They all blew out the candles as the kids looked on. Happpppy, Happy Birthday to you all!:)

Pee Wee Showmanship

Taygan and Conner's sheep with a little encouragment from dad.

The Cashe County Fair has a Pee Wee division in the sheep program. Taygan was a little hesitate to show but a new pair of cowgirl boots did the trick. Everyone was a winner. They all received $3.00 and bottle of Gaterade.

There was 105 Pee Wee. The judge had them say their name and the name of their lamb and 45 minutes later we were on to the real show.
Way to go Tanner and Max
