This is next Wednesday!!!!

.Larsen Family Fundraiser.
Most of you know Daryl and Ashley Larsen. For those of you who don't, they are a young couple here in Perry, who just lost their baby to a rare lung disorder. Their loss is truly a tragedy. They are now experiencing the beginnings of what will be a land slide of medical bills. In an effort to aide them, there will be a one day fundraiser at the Maddox Steak House. On November 5, you can call Maddox at 723-2916 and order the Turkey Steak dinner. You can choose the 2 or 4 family meal at the regular price. All proceeds will then be donated to the Larsen family. You do need to remember to mention the Larsen family name when ordering. You can then pick up your meal at the take out window in the back of Maddox. It will be for lunch and dinner. Please spread the word.Feel free to copy and paste this post on your blog.+amber

I + this time of year!

Ok Ok to everyone who loves me and wants to know what we have been up to!!!! I finally will create blog post #2. First things first just incase anyone cares I did take care of my citation on day 10 (the last day that I could). I love this time of year you can go play outside in crapy weather and the kids + it. But if you don't want to be outside you can work with the harvist inside. This year I went from doing no bottling to 36 quarts of peaches, 96 pints of salsa, and 55 quarts of grape juice. Needless to say we will be enjoying the harvest all through the year!

Anyway back to the kids playing outside in the crapy weather and loving it we (me and the boys)

went to Black Island Farms with Laurie and the girls. It was so great they have play grounds made out of huge hay bells and this big black tub slide that they sent the kids down in onion bags:) Of coarse Normy had to be the first one to take a ride down the slide, but after he did it and survived Parker tried it and loved it too.Of coarse Normy had to be the first one to take a ride down the slide, but after he did it and survived Parker tried it and loved it too.

That is Normy's full on natural reaction to the fun and of coarse I had to get Parker to pretend he just came down the slide. After that super fun slide we went on this thing they called the cow train .

Then we took a tractor ride to the pumkin patch to pick out any pumpkin you would like.

If you can't tell it was really cold but I didn't hear one word about it!!!

For anyone that is interested and made it this far in the blog I am putting a Terry's Village Order together and would love anyone to perticipate that would like too. You can go to terrysvillage.com and with this order pay 30% less then the price you see. I need to know what you want by November 3, or I will not have time to place the order and get the deal!

I made a new friend today:)

This story starts yesterday....I went to go by some tomatoes to make some salsa, and I had hurd that Pettingills (hala) had the best tomatoes. Well they didn't have the tomatoes I was looking for but they had the most beautiful bell peppers and I didn't buy any because I was hoping that my plants at home would keep up with the demand. I did have enough to do yesterday's batch but not today's, so this morning after Parker went to school Normy and I went to go get the beautiful bell peppers at Pettingills. I ended up running a few more errands but we did get the bell peppers and we were headed back to get Parker from school (with plenty of time I might add), and we were going through Willard, and I got caught going 58 in a 45. I was really trying to pay attention to the speed I was going because I was not in a hurry we had PLENTY of time to get back to get Parker, but I wasn't doing as good of a job as I thought I was. My first pullover in the NASVAN! Officer Phil walks up and asks for my licence, registration, and proof of insurance. I had two of the three my proof of insurance card was getting in my way every time I walked out to get into the NASVAN but it has yet to make it into the NASVAN. He was a very nice officer and I had it all under control until he let me off with a warning and then I lost it. Let's remember that I do have extra hormones but I don't know what came over me. Normy was sitting in the front seat with the airbag off but I guess it is state law that kids can not sit in the front seat so he told me Normy had to sit in the back and then he saw where the cat scratched me last night and asked me about the scratches. When I told him that they were from my cat he acted like he did not believe me and said they looked like something else. I am so naive that I don't even know what he was tiring to imply. After all that we still had PLENTY of time to make it back and get Parker from school, but I have yet to make my salsa:)
