TD Bank work party!

We prepared for our halloween party for over a week. Brandy and I were super excited to decorate and dress up. I am so happy it all worked out in the end.

I really think the customers enjoyed it just as much as we did.


We had elvis and a couple 50's mix's playing all day
We did the diner theme, so we called it TD's Diner
I can't get over how creative we got with this


When the day was done, Jonny and I drove away into the sunset

Happy Birthday Amber!

She turns 1 October 30th, and what a great year it has been.

We had fun opening presents, Amber got right into it!
And what is there if there is not a cake involved!


She was so excited about all the toys and all the presents, she was super happy!

Duck Hunting

Jonathan and his brother Brandon went duck hunting on monday,
They had a great trip in the morning.
They got up at 4:30 to head out and they were able to shoot three ducks total.


They also had a chance to go squirel hunting with amber. Jonathan shot one but it didn't want to die unitl it had four shots to it. He said that the stupid thing just didn't want to die. My poor hubby, he didn't even give it the fourth shot, brandon did. lol
Those boys were so busy that morning, I wish I could have been there with all the fun.
I did however get out of work really early that day so they ended up bringing me hunting in the afternoon. I had a blast, I was just excieted we say some birds even if they were geese.
We had a great canoe ride!
It was a great night, we ended it with a great meal at Pie n'the sky

Stake confrence weekend

I had a great weekend with my family! Saturday my mom and I celebrated my birthday with eachother. We went Shoping, to the movies, and then to dinner at Long Horn Steak House! (Everything a girl always loves to do) I had such a great time with her. It seems like life has gotten so busy and crazy since my nana had a stroke so it was nice to be able to have a girls night with her.
Sunday we got to go for a great walk with them,

Vermont is such a beautiful place!

Jessy's Birthday

I had so much fun on my birthday. It was very depressing at first just because I hate getting older, but jonathan made it so special for me. He is such a wonderful husband, He is such a great blessing in my life.
He first suprised me with flowers at work!
Then he suprised me with asking my work for the rest of the week off without me knowing!
And then we had a great time up in Island Pond area! These were our adventures

We went to jonathans old middle school and got to meet his old teachers. It is so nice being able to be apart of jonathans childhood. We then ended the visit playing on the playground.

Amber loves playgrounds and slides! She is going to be have so much fun when we have children! The video is so funny, Amber was doing what jonny wanted!










We later met up with Dean, jonathans dad to look at some land that we liked in Holand, VT. It was very cold wet and rainny (down poor) We had tons of fun, we walked for a good two hours at least, but we ended up getting lost on the way out. The land had 136 acres so we were trying to follow the survaors line.


On our way of finding a way out of this forest amber got onto a rabbit sent and went runnig. Jonathan had to chase after her only because it was dark and we had to get out before we could not find our way out at all. We ended up getting out of the woods but into someones back yard. It was qutie and adventure!

We were all soaking wet, our pants were wet to our thighs and our raincoats were not water proof anymore lol. But it was tons of fun!
We ended our long day at The Stevens house, listening to wonderful music from the family and a great home cooked meal! It was such a great birthday!


Not long after the wonderful music jonathan, amber and I were so tired we went to bed!
the next moring gramps gave me my birthday present!
Fishing!!!!



I love fishing with gramps because I always seem to catch somthing! I have been begging jonathan to go fishing again, so this was such a great birthday present!





I was very lucky that I hooked this big 21 inch lake trout my second cast!

poor Jonathan didn't catch anything...cry
But it was all fun in the end anyway!
We found out later while we were dressing out the fish that it was a mama because her tummy was full of eggs! We ate her three days later and she was tasted better than any fish ever!



Jonathans wood buisness

Jonathans wood buisness seems to be going very well this year

He has already sold seven cords of wood and we just got out of the red for a while.

I got to accompany him on one delivery that scared the living daylights out of me.
This woman wanted him to back is truck down this huge hill to her back stairs so they could better store the wood for the winter.
I am glad he has great driving skills because he had to drive between trees and a rock wall down a hill to the back of the house without going down into her garden! Jonathans load of firewood is heavy and when he got going down the hill he locked his brakes yet we was still going down the hill.
Watch this video
