Lately..

I'm a little nervous...tomorrow I have to drive a car with a KANSAS license plate.  AHH!!!  WHAT??!!  The license plate doesn't look right on the car.  I think I need to just go out and look at it for a little bit longer for it to sink in.  I live in Kansas.  Who would've guessed that 2 years ago?     Okay, okay.  Enough of my ranting.  I am very happy to be in the mid-west :)  Yes, I just have to get used to the tag on my car.  ha!  (thanks to my parents for letting us "buy" the car!!)

I just HAD to snap a picture of Aaron working tonight!!!  I was just so happy to see him out there working so hard in his garage already!  He's such a hard worker and when he wants something done, he does it quickly, and very thorough.  So he has a cement counter-top project going on right now, and he needed something to put them on.  I suggested 5 gallon bucks...ha!  That's a laugh.  Aaron built these MEGA strong saw horses (is that how you spell it, Jenna?) in like 20 minutes.

On to a new subject.  I went through my phone and saw this cute sequence of pictures from when we had our Apple theme at school.  I had the kids help with each step of making applesauce.  They got to use (very dull) knives and cutting boards to cut the apples.  Then they loved watching them cook and smelled the sweet goodness!  Finally we put it through the food mill and got to eat the applesauce!

A couple weeks ago the extended Billings family had a reunion in Salina, Kansas, at a nice park!  We took a few family pictures and I had to post this nice one of us!  The day was beautiful for a carry-in meal, and we got to play most of the afternoon with the niece and nephew on the playground.  

Happy "Hump" Day Everyone!

We are missing and loving both sets of family!
