So we have been so busy that last little while! Jon's Grandma Olson passed away at the beginning of September and so we went up to Idaho for the funeral. We had Enza's baby blessing the same weekend and we got to spend more time with jon's family. We have been busy canning and juicing and making ginger peach jam. It is all very good and I was quite impressed with how well it all turned out! For Stake Conference they talked on being prepared and it really struck a chord! Basically they said that some people have the attitude that the church won't let anyone starve, but that is wrong! The Church couldn't possibly feed everyone and we will be held accountable if our children starve! The thought of that makes me sick!
In the middle of the month we went to a corn maze and they had the best area for playing. It was supposed to be for the kids- but I think that the adults had just as much fun! Here are some pics of that fun night.


This slide was so fun! There is this black one- it is awesome! It was really high and long- but man was it fun!



We have also been fortunate enough to get some baby pics of Gabe! I am so excited about this! We have wanted to get some of them so that he can know what he looked like and where he came from. I ran into this lady at Albertsons one day and she came up to me and said Can I ask you a personal question? Anytime anyone says that it kind of make ya nervous! Anyways I said yes and she said Is that little boy adopted? I again said yes. She then asked if his name was Emiliano and I was like yeah. She was the woman who cared for him and his birthmom when he was born! She told me that she had pics of him when he was just minutes old! We exchanged info and I had tried to contact her. Finally over a year later she found me on Facebook and we have been able to get 68 pics of him from birth- 8 months! Seriously-amazing!

We are so lucky to get these priceless pictures of him! I love them!

Mech-I'm so happy for you about the pictures of Gabe. I didn't realize you'd gotten them. What a blessing for your family and for him. I'd love to see the rest of them sometime. It's amazing the people The Lord puts in our path sometimes. He obviously knew how much it would matter to you to have those pictures. What a sweet lady! I love you, you are a great mom and great at juggling all the balls you have up in the air right now. I'm proud to be your sister. I love you!
