Schnepf Farms 2013

I have been fortunate to go to Schnepf Farms each fall for the past 4 years with my grandchildren.  Brexton and Nixin both went to Busy Bee Pre-School with Ms. Nicole. Each year in the fall Ms. Nicole would take her classes to Schnepf Farms and I would have the opportunity to tag along. This year Trey,Jenna and the girls were going and they invited us to come. We picked up Gracie and met them all for some fun!

 Gracie was all about the face painting. Montana wasn't about to let a stranger paint on her face.

 Harlee is such an adorable little peanut. She enjoyed riding the chicken on the carousel

 Our feisty cowgirl Montana picked the horse that looked like a wild bronc!

 Everyone loves to bounce and bounce and bounce and bounce...............you get the picture!

 Who is flying this thing...pilot to co-pilot?

 Its always such fun to pick out just the right pumpkin.

Brexton is Baptized

My grandson Brexton Bradlee Colburn made the choice to be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints on November 9,2013. He was baptized and confirmed by his father,my son, Brinton Colburn.

We are so proud of Brexton and the decision he has made to be baptized. As a family we went to dinner the night before to Liberty Market in Gilbert,Arizona. He received new scriptures from Brinton and Allison,hand tooled leather scripture cover tooled by his great-grandpa George Wimsatt and a journal from Steve and I.  He was so excited to have his own scriptures and the leather cover tooled by my Dad, which is a tradition in our family.  I challenged him to write about his feelings after he was baptized in his new journal and he did!

He was surrounded by people who love him very much. It was nice that his Great Grandpa George and Great Grandma Ina, who had not been feeling, well were able to attend. We were all so happy to spend time with Cote. We miss being able to see him and include him in our family activities. 

I have to say it.......Good times,noodle salad!

Waffle Crush- My New Obsession

Did I just say obsession? I'm afraid I did.

Right now the food truck has made a strong comeback.  In fact,when Brinton and Allison were planning their wedding almost a year ago they wanted a food truck for their rehearsal dinner.  It didn't happen because most of the food trucks they were interested in were already booked.

Brinton is the one suggested that I try Waffle Crush one evening.  I wasn't able to that night but I remembered the name when I heard Waffle Crush was going to be at a Boutique fund raiser for a member of our church who has an artificial heart  and needs a real one. Part of the proceeds from this Boutique and the Waffle Crush were to be donated towards this cause. I just had do go and support this cause and try my first Waffle Crush.

So delicious! I had a chocolate filled waffle topped with Biscoff,raspberries and homemade cream. There are all sorts of possibilities,you can create your own,so there is something for everyone. The next week I had to take my friend Teri to experiences the deliciousness and she agreed. I took this week off but hey, there's always next week!
