Conference Weekend in Grover.... does it get any better?

This weekend was so much fun! Cory and I got to pack up on Friday after work (but lets be honest, we were packed on WED we were so ready for the country) and head down to Grover! We made a pit stop and picked up Tyson and Harley Jane. I'm not going to lie, this lil girly is the cutest darn thing ever! She has such a personality! Can you believe she's not even 1 years old yet?
Har Har loves Uncle Cory. And Cor loves her too. I think Harley does it on purpose so that Cory will be even more baby hungry!

Harley also has Gramps tied around her lil finger... but lets be honest, which of his grand kids don't have him wrapped?

Sarah's volleyball team finally finished up with their tourney so she got to meet up with us down there! Harley was so excited to see her mom! Can you tell where she gets that crazy personality?

Well, this weekend was great for some many reasons. Conference was amazing! I learned so much, and my favorite talk talked about putting our trust in God more. I tend to try and take everything in to my own hands... I make to-do lists and get very frustrated and ornery if it doesn't get done right! But, I have decided to try and really focus on not HAVING to be in control of EVERYTHING. Just going to work my hardest and enjoy life as it comes at me. I also loved this weekend because it was so good to get out to the country! It was incredible weather down there and just beautiful!!!

This shot is what we see as we walk out of the front porch of the cabin. Still fish for fishing in that pond. Or you can just feed them and watch them all bubble at the top!

This is out to the side of the house, those are the Boulder mountains. I wish you could see the colors more!

Well... it wouldn't be a great weekend without a few projects! Especially with the men off deer and coyote hunting! FIRST... mom and I started the canning again with PEACHES!!! yummy. These beauts are straight off of my dear ol' roomates orchard in Payson UT! Angie has been such a great friend all these years so here's a lil shout out....wha what!!!

Ang talked us into a new style of peaches that we weren't all to familiar with. But lets be honest, we're not all to familiar with the details of many peaches, but these are delicious and beautiful. I cant remember what they're called though... crap!

And next we got to the crafty project.... Here is the before picture...

and some of the process of it all. Its nice to have Cory and Daddy-O around to help with things such as chain saws and rusty hammers and nails!
