Dobson Ranch 35th Anniversary

After 35 years, It's still a fun place to live. We all had a great time enjoying all of the events at Dobson Ranch Park. There was a magician, booths with games, jousting inflatables, 25 ft. rock wall great music on stage, especially the Rhodes Jazz Band- (Amanda had a rockin' solo) swim team booth, and our Dobson High football booth, food and fireworks to end the night. We even had our Mustang Mascot. Matthew got talked into wearing it for a few hours( he wasn't so excited at first, but then got into it) Several football players helped throw footballs threw the horseshoe, for prizes. Zachary made it half way up the rock wall ( and my camera was out of batteries at the moment). Jeremy liked the snowcones and he loved the fireworks. He kept saying "wow!" The whether was nice and the day was fun.

Pretty and Pink

I love pie and I got a "Fat Sisters cookbook" for Christmas and decided to try making homemade pie crust. Amanda wove the lattice and we all enjoyed it.

My roses are coming back, and I have a huge bush, which amazingly, hasn't died. It has for the last several years bloomed these beautiful pink roses.

I made it

We have a sewing queen our ward. She moved in one year ago and loves to sew. She taught Amanda along with other girls how to make pajamas and is teaching women in our ward how to make rag quilts. The Snoopy fabric was donated to our humanitarian project, and someone knew that Jeremy liked Snoopy. The sewing queen, Carol, had the orange and blue fabric. I spent one day sewing and took the quilt home and cut the edges to have it fray. For those who might be in shock, here it is. This one is for Jeremy. Zachary now wants a leggo quilt. He might have to wait.
