The Garden

Our tomatoes and corn are getting big.
Hyrum is the big garden helper.
Everyday we get a bag full of ripe tomatoes for about the past week. :)

Miriam burned her face :(

The blessing is that now about 6 weeks later you can barely see the burn.

Reed picked these flowers for Miriam on a hike up Mill Creek Canyon this past Friday.

She's holding her hand this way because she had fallen and scraped it. Thankfully, God has blessed her face to heal.

Miriam took this picture of herself.

She wanted a picture of the burn. I was so sad.

Lesson-be careful with the microwave.

Miriam wanted peanut butter and honey sandwiches for lunch. I tried to get the honey but it was coming out slowly so I said I would microwave it. In the meantime I started washing off Sara's high chair tray. Miriam decided she would do the microwaving so she stuck the little honey bear in, but, she didn't remove the cap and pushed 1 which meant it cooked for 1 minute. Miriam heard a pop so she went and opened the door(at 37 secs.). The honey had gotten too hot and exploded in the microwave. When she opened the door the honey splashed on her face and you see the resulting burn.

Camping up American Fork Canyon

In the middle of the night the dog barked at something. I liked having the dog in the middle of nowhere.

Cesar with Sara really early since she didn't sleep well.

By 6 am we'd had enough and began packing. We made it home just in time for free breakfast at Dan's.

This is what we did to end Cesar's vacation after spending nearly the entire three weeks working on the back yard.

Grass in the backyard. Yeah!

Cesar leveled the yard a bit. We also made it bigger by changing the fences.

The "mountain mover" with his assistant.

We spread out 3 dump truck loads of topsoil before laying sod.

Been too busy playing to share all the fun. :) We put grass in our backyard. It is soo nice to have a backyard.
