With 5 girls in the house there is lots of goofiness and dressing up, just one of the many pictures that get found on my camera...

We got 2 bins of beautiful apples from Creston B.C. and split it between 5-6 people for making LOTS of applesauce and cider... here was my share of applesauce cooling on the floor..
We had a beautiful fall to enjoy....along with some really cold weather in November!
Getting the pasture cleared of 80+ trees, we were hoping to get this seeded in the fall but we didnt get it disked in time, then we got snow...so we have got our work cut out for us this spring!!
Every month we deal with pile of Dutch Valley food to sort thru and package.. the kids moan and groan but i notice they are very eager taste- testers...so i turn a deaf ear.. aren't i cruel??
We've cleaned up our decorations from christmas, gained lots of snow in a few short hours, warmed up and we lost it all(the snow that is) had some almost 50 degree days, now its snowing again!! .....said good bye to Eli and Lydia Ann and Owen and Jenny, both going to Chile.....we're gearing up for spring here at the store, we rearranged our shelving and got produce in, we're getting Baker Creek Heirloom seeds in, in a few weeks; I'm getting new cupboards at my house and a new ceiling sometime this spring!!!!


Have a good week!!

    I'm at the library looking at these posts. While looking at your pictures,I had this zany urge to nudge my computer neighbor and say, Hey look, that's my brother! Fortunately, I caught myself in time. Proud of you Norv and Sharon.

I’m Back!

 I’ve been thinking the last few weeks of this poor forsaken blog, so I looked up the other day and it was actually 2012 that I quit. A lot of water has passed under the bridge since then and our family has grown and there’s been lots of changes and a wedding and a daughter-in-law and grandbaby coming and now we’re having another wedding In a few weeks! Wow , you never know what will happen in six more years! I thought about trying to catch up over our lives the last few years, but most of you already know What all we’ve been up to so I’m not gonna try! I’m just going to start where we are now! This is going to be a year to remember for sure! 2018, Who would’ve thought, that we would be facing cancer, looking forward to being grandparents, having a 19-year-old daughter getting married, another daughter dating!  It’s almost mind-boggling, but I am reminded  that when I started this blog and I was a busy younger mother with six little kids, that I literally took one day...

Pictures Of Summer 2012, now That Its History. . .

I am so far behind, I'm not even gonna try to catch up on our summer! Did we even HAVE summer??? Me thinks the years are flying by too fast! We had a relaxing Sunday afternoon today, Norvs mom and dad came up for lunch and Jay and April and the girls. . . Its been almost six weeks since hip surgery for my MIL, she's about ready to get rid of her walker! That'll be a wonderful sight to see her walk without it. Its been getting colder every night and raining for the past few days, knocking all those beautiful yellow leaves of of my maples in the front yard!  We've started raking them into huge piles. But its wasted effort till they are all off. The snow is covering the mountain tops now so one of these days its gonna get us! :) We celebrated our 18 th anniversary the 8th of October! Norv had to fly to Seattle that weekend and Julianna had her 8th birthday, so we are gonna do a gateway later. This time of the year is always a little hard to get nice wea...

Weddings and grand baby!

Its February already and look how many times I posted 🤔 I’ll do that later but here are some updates at least. Our family has grown by 3 this past year, we love it. Changes are good , most of them anyway. Little Kyra has wormed her way into our hearts, she is changing so fast. Of course, I think she likes me best 🤣 She has such bright little eyes that stare right through you, I think she gets that from her dad! Kate and Paul got married on October 6, and had a beautiful wedding. I felt pretty good, I had to do chemo the week after the wedding so I had to hurry and put wedding stuff away. Thankfully, I could put everything in Kate’s basement and sort through later. Samantha used some of the same stuff, lights etc so that was nice !  My mom and sister and a niece came out for the wedding and helped for a few days, we managed to run down to check out Ms. Statue of Liberty on the Sandpoint beach.  Then David’s and Sams wedding on January 5. It was a typical ...
