November: Trip to Ohio!

Amy called and asked if I could come stay with her while Greg was out of town for a week. I was able to do it and I said "YES!" So I went and it was SOOOO great!

This is a picture of a tunnel in the Detroit airport and it was cool! It had kind of eerie music going and a light show on the walls. I got familiar with this tunnel because I went back and forth in it because I missed my connecting flight and almost cried, and was put up in a hotel and had an experience to remember and write in my journal about.

Yummy grapes to eat and play chipmunk with. Pinch those cheeky cheeks!!

Ryan liked my old lady reading glasses and wore them around the house whenever he saw them.

Went to the John Johnson farm and took a tour. We were the only ones there. It was a wonderful experience. It was here, in Hyrum (not related to Hyrum Smith) where Joseph Smith received the revelation of the three degrees of glory found in D&C 76.

In the bed behind us is where Joseph was dragged out of and tarred and feathered, then right outside the door preached a sermon the next day. One of his twins died from exposure because of the event. The twins were sleeping on the trundle bed underneath.

Eric really liked playing the game "Angry Birds" on my iphone. This picture just reminds me of my three boys at that age. It took me back.

I held and loved and kissed this baby and couldn't get enough! I love him and miss him so much!!

Next door to the Johnson farm is an apple farm and a store. Amy got a bushel of apples, and she and the boys made apple pie filling to freeze. Eric helped peel/core/slice the apples and the other boys stirred in the spices. I took lots of pictures and video and wanted to make a fun movie with music, but couldn't get the technology to work for me. Rats! I think I got the boys making up a (bathroom) humorous song on video that also brought back the good old days!:)

Good memories of an A+ book report on The Silver Chair, a Family Home Evening playing the game Categories, singing 'In a Cottage by the wood,... come little rabbit, come with me, happy we will be. WHACK! Mmmm! Wabbit stew!" Thank you Amy, Eric, Ryan, Christian and Daniel for a truly marvelous week!
