This just makes us smile every morning!

The St. George Marathon. Darin ran it in 4:00 and 23 seconds! Way to go honey! I got sick and only did 16 miles. Really disappointing after all that training. This was Lindsay and Buzz's first marathon and they did great. Lindsay finished in 4:15, and Buzz came in about an hour later with a very sore and swollen knee.

I haven't written for a long time because nothing major was going on. We've been busy as ever with school starting, bottling and freezing all the produce from our garden, and just every day life. But it's the little things that are the most important, so here are some pictures of the every day...and the once in a lifetime goat hunt.

Summer turning to fall

Peaches galore! We had more peaches than we knew what to do with! We ate them, bottled them, and gave them away. We LOVE our peach tree!
I love this picture! Davin drinking his milk. You can see it running down his tummy.

Darin's once in a lifetime goat hunt. He had a wonderful time and we have goat meat in the freezer.

Oregon Coast

We had the best vacation! We saw some incredible stuff in the tide pools, lots of sea stars, even a sun star, which is pretty rare. (This is a sea star)
We caught crabs off the dock, and ate them that afternoon.

We had a bonfire, dutch oven dinner, s'mores, and fireworks on the beach. And that was just a few of the fun things we did!
