Just a Reminder...

Don't forget to check out Jaxon's blog for Karate updates.  He won't let me post anything on our family page!  

Saturday Photo Shoot

It was raining and cloudy on Saturday.  The soccer game was rained out, Ty had school and we were bored!  So I took the kids and my camera to the trails and started shooting.  Here's a few shots from our morning.

Wanna Hang Out???

Today I got my usual 8:15 am phone call from my friend Velvet. Amazingly enough, we were both free for the day so we decided to hang out and make salsa. I was excited because there is never a dull moment when cooking with her. For example, you can take the easiest recipe for a chocolate cake in the crock pot and for some reason it comes out looking like this...


No problem... Chocolate Cake anyone? Anyway, we began our salsa adventure at Albertsons. We got all the ingredients plus lots of Diet Coke! The salsa making went really well. We decided to quadruple the recipe and Velvet's math isn't much better than mine, so the laughing began. We figured it out and finished our salsa with my kitchen looking like tomatoes had exploded. The salsa tasted good, but Velvet decided it need something else so through my spices she went. Adding this and that and like 8 more cloves of garlic than the recipe called for. I trusted her because she made this the other day and it was wonderful. We finished and amazingly it tasted great! Then it sat until dinner. When we ate it with our tacos, it was the best garlic salsa I have ever tasted! Needless to say, apparently the flavors blend the longer the salsa sits. Moral to the story: When making salsa, it doesn't have to taste exactly right when the project is complete and it's probably a good idea to follow the recipe!  

Fall Soccer

It's hard to believe that Fall is here already.

 Jaxon started soccer and Ty is the coach.  

They are having an absolute blast this year...  Go Pirates!
