Hi Family!

We had a great weekend! Janel and the gang and Jason and Ava were here for the weekend. On Friday night we went to the County Fair and heard Emily sing with quartet. She did great, of course!! The kids had fun on the rides and the weather was great, a little stormy. But, earlier in the day the Sessions from Mesa surprised us. We visited with them for a couple of hours. It was so good to see them. The night of the carnival, they even showed up to hear Emily! We have such great friends.

So Saturday, dad was involved with the fiddle kids at the fair so we just basically hung out. Nick and Hannah were over with the kids and that was really fun. But then at 5:00 p.m. Lynn and Wick (don't know their last name, she's a Mullenaux) came over and took pics of the kids, Nick and Hannah, Emily, Jason and Ava, and oh, I think we got some good ones. So excited to get them back in about a week. That night, Janel, Jason and I stayed up all night (3:30, just as dad was getting up) and talked. I had such a good time, hope you did too, Janel & Jason.

Sunday, Janel left fairly early and so we just sat around until it was time for church. Now this coming weekend, Katie and Kameron are coming. You two have not been back to Thatcher since June, what's with that!!??? If I can, I'm going to try to get you guys to drive back the next weekend for fall sing. You wouldn't want to miss Emily would you?

Nate, it was good to talk to you tonight. Just so everyone knows, he thinks the marriage will be done by next Friday. Pretty exciting, huh?

Brianna, haven't talked to you for awhile for any length of time. So blog, so everyone can read it, or call your mom.

Well, it's late and I need to get to bed. Love you all. Mom
