Our grapevine also produced a lot of grapes. I am amazed at how big it got!
Paul cut it back last year to basically one branch. Now look at it!

Millions of Peaches
"Millions of peaches-peaches for me.
Millions of peaches-peaches for free."
I don't know who sings that song, but I remember my brothers listening to it. And every time I say 'peaches' that lyric comes to mind.
But this year we really did get millions of peaches!
Food Anyone?
Paul has made several batches of homemade salsa--and it is really good!
Glenn really likes it too.
Nursery Songs
It's nice to know that Glenn is learning and remembering
things taught to him in Nursery.
Spelling Bee Star
This video only shows a little bit of what Glenn can do. He knows all the letters of the alphabet--uppercase and lowercase. Sometimes he gets confused with I and l, but who doesn't?
It is fun reading signs and books with him. He points to all the letters he knows and is now learning to sound out the words. He is getting close to recognizing small words like 'the' and 'and' and 'of'. We just love our little Spelling Bee Star! (Maybe one day he will be...)
Candy Corn
Oh man, I LOVE this time of year...cooler weather, Fall colors, and of course
CANDY CORN!
I love candy corn!
I also love making funny faces with candy corn. I guess Glenn watched me do that a few times and he decided he wanted to do it too.
Glenn and Paul having Fun
I love being able to capture these fun moments had between my husband and my son. It is so precious!
These boys sure have fun together! I love them both so much!
Potty Training...
So about a month ago we decided to try potty training.
Glenn really liked the underwear that we found. (It is Thomas and all the other trains!)
But it didn't really work. We'll try again soon.
Abbie
One of my Mia Maids plays on the high school soccer team. We had the chance to go to one of her games. We took a picture of her getting ready to sub in and then one on the field. (She has the dark hair.)
Exercise
So this is what exercise looks like at our house--haha! It looks like Glenn is pretending to be a chicken or something! I'm not sure why he started doing that when he runs through the house, but he always does. We figured we'd better get a video of it before he doesn't do it anymore.
Labor Day Hike
Labor Day morning we dropped Glenn off at my aunt's house, got my uncle and headed up to meet family at my grandparent's house.

The Trash Man, played by Glenn
Glenn loves the trash man, like most young boys. Glenn also loves to imitate the truck as it picks up the trash cans and dumps them. I had a video of this, but it is too long. So here is the picture sequence.
A KSL Treasure
I admit it. I'm addicted to looking up deals on ksl.
One day I found something that I've wanted for awhile! An IKEA cube bookcase. It was $40 less than brand new and it was in great condition. So we picked it up right away. We only had our car, so we had to take it apart and stuff it into our little-trunk car. Poor Glenn didn't have much leg room because the long pieces had to go back there with him. But I was so excited to have it!!
Glenn and Grandpa
One time when my Dad was at my house we sat outside talking in the van. Glenn saw us and wanted to join us. He played around in the seat-less back for a bit. But then he wanted to play with Grandpa.
Glenn and the Tub
For those of you who have seen Glenn play with his cars,
you'll know that this is just what Glenn does with his toys.
He likes to line them up.
I guess he likes things organized--like his momma! ;)
Elder Jensen
Paul's cousin Bennett received his mission call this summer. We were privileged to be there when he was set apart and all that. It was really neat. I had never been a part of that before. Thanks Elder Jensen for letting us be there with you! We know you'll be a great missionary!
Summer Fun with the Jensen's
I'm pretty sure this can get confusing..."summer fun with the Jensen's"...which Jensen's? Because there are so many possibilities of who they could be...I'll show you! :D
Paul's aunt and cousin were in town this summer visiting family. We spent a few nights with them and also with Devin, Sandy and their family. Glenn loves his cousins! He knows their names and loves being and playing with them.
Jannine. Eden. Davis. Camille. Glenn.
