Another busy weekend, come and gone!
Friday night we met with a couple we know and had dinner at "Famous Dave's." It's a new BBQ place in Meridian and we wanted to see how it compares with GoodWood. It was good but we both still prefer GoodWood. Just our opinion. We had a great time with Ray and Barb and after dinner, Barb helped us further BLOW our diet's by having us over for Creme Brule. WOW, it was good!
Saturday morning we got up around 9am, ate a quick bite and went and picked up Grandma Norton and we all went to the church orchard and picked peaches. We picked 6 bushels and so now I have my work cut out for me every evening this week.....canning! They were lovely Alberta's and they are delicious! I've been eating fresh peaches for 2 weeks now and I am enjoying them so much! After dropping off peaches at Melissa's and then taking Grandma home, we went home cleaned up and then went shopping. My hubby is awesome! He took me to Bed Bath and Beyond and bought me the hand held Dyson vacuum for my birthday! I love it! I couldn't wait to get home and try it out! Oh, and remember how I said we loved the Creme Brule! Well, he bought me a kit to make it. It came with 4 ramekin's and the little torch to caramelize the brown sugar! He also bought me 4 extra ramekins. And get this..... he bought another Ped Egg and refills for them. I asked why we needed two and he said "His and Hers" LOL Sure do love that man of mine! My Dyson is wonderful! It sucks like no other! LOL It will make it so easy to do the steps now. Love it, love it, love it!
Saturday night we drove to Bruneau with mom and dad Norton and attended Cassandra Neider's wedding. It was fun. A real cowboy wedding! Tony was impressed with the "GoodWood" meal that followed! LOL. We got home a little after 10PM.
Sunday was nice. Tony was up early for his early Stake meetings. I went to church at 9AM and my Primary class was out of control! They tested my patience to the max. I had to get after 2 of them in particular and one of them said to me "You just slipped to the bottom of my list, and believe me.....it's a long list!" It was actually pretty funny and I told her "that was rich, I'll remember that and use it sometime." Fun girls but some days they are over the top!
We had a great phone conversation with Chris and Princess when I got home and it was so good to hear from them. They are doing great! Chris is on days now so they are enjoying time together! We had a nice lunch and a nice relaxing afternoon catching up on sleep. Sunday evening we were invited over to Stillman and Michelle's to play games. We had a wonderful peach cobbler, some popcorn and watermelon. We played games and then left around 8:30. We were on our bikes and wanted to leave before it got too dark.
Now it's back to work and on to another busy week. We'll be canning as the peaches ripen so it could be a few jars every night. They will be worth the time and trouble! Busy hands, keeps me outta trouble!

Loved your blog... very cute! I'm sure the Cowboy Wedding was fun! The pedegg does do wonders! My mom has one two!
Oh I forgot to mention how hilarious I think it is that you love your vacuums so much! I think I remember how excited you were about the last vacuum you got- man, you sure do love your cleaning supplies! (All of your kids spouses need to read this blog- then they would understand why some of us are so anal about cleanliness!! ha ha ha)
Fun!!! Also, "sweet!" ;-) Happy canning! :-) Wish I could've gotten out there, too! (And that little Primary girl is too funny... senior Primary kids think they know EVERYTHING! ;-)
